WeightWatchers Launches WeightWatchers for Menopause With Queen Latifah

A new era for WeightWatchers began today, as the longstanding health and weight-management program announced the launch of its first-ever program aimed specifically at menopausal women. WeightWatchers for Menopause combines the services WW has become known and loved for—medical care, science-backed nutrition advice, lifestyle recommendations and community—into a platform dedicated to women at any stage of the major life change, from pre- to peri- and post-menopause, bringing in medical experts specifically trained in menopause-related treatments from HRT therapy to GLP-1s and more.

“Developed by leading physicians, menopause specialists and experts in fitness and nutrition, the program provides a holistic model designed to meet the distinct nutritional health needs of women from perimenopause to post-menopause,” a press release explains. “From one-on-one guidance with menopause-trained clinicians and access to evidence-based treatments currently available only in the U.S., to a tailored version of the Points Programme, fitness designed for strength and stability, and workshops led by coaches who understand this stage of life, the program offers women everything they need to feel supported, informed and empowered.” To help usher in this new era of female empowerment at any age, WeightWatchers tapped 55-year-old Queen Latifah, who’s not only a legendary rapper and musician, but also a passionate advocate for women’s health, too.

“Menopause has been a new journey for me—one that’s changed how I see and care for my body,” said Queen Latifah in a press release. “It’s shown me how important it is for women to have support that truly understands this stage of life. That’s why I’m proud to be the spokesperson for WeightWatchers’ new program. For decades, WeightWatchers has helped women live healthier, more confident lives and now they’re once again leading the way with care designed for menopause.” For more information on WeightWatchers for Menopause, click here.
