It’s Not A Diet, It’s A Challenge

Clive Thompson, writing for Wired, explains why losing weight with Weight Watchers is easy, and even fun, to do.

Weight Watchers is an RPG.

About David Burn

I wrote my first ad for a local political candidate when I was 17. She went on to win her race, and I felt the power of persuasive copy for the first time. Starting in Portland in 1995, I worked my way across the country as a copywriter and eventually became a content director making media products for big packaged goods brands. I returned to Oregon in 2008, and now I focus on building brands for companies that matter, including this one.

    Never thought of it that way, but the Weight Watchers points system made losing weight a lot easier for me, even though now I just follow the general principles. Sixty pounds in 3 years though.
