How the Founder of Weight Watchers Changed the World
Book • 2020
This book tells two parallel stories: Marisa Meltzer's lifelong struggles with weight and her journey through the Weight Watchers program, and the story of Jean Nidetch, the housewife who founded Weight Watchers in 1963.
Meltzer weaves together her own experiences with Nidetch's, highlighting the deep parallels and enduring frustrations in each woman's efforts to lose weight and maintain it.
The book is a humorous, unexpected, and unforgettable chronicle that shows how transformation goes far beyond a number on the scale.
