Weight Watchers or Slimming World Classes

[Leanne Grant]

Hey Everyone

Happy New Year.

I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any weight watchers or slimming world classes out here? I have looked on their websites but they all seem to be UK based I didnt think they would miss a trick by not having someone out here!

Thanks

i dont know of any to be honest, although having said that, i havent looked into it.
maybe its something you could set up, could be a niche in the market

I was thinking that to be honest, I cannot believe they have not set something up out here it is crazy cause they make loads in the UK! especially when everyone feels like they have over indulged over the christmas etc!

Did you have any luck finding a job (when I spoke to you on the night out at Barasti you said you were looking) :-)

Hi,

You are right, no Weight Watchers here in Dubai. I joined in the UK while visiting one year, and did it on my own back home here, having got fed up of putting things off for far too long, and lost ALLOT of weight following it.

I have been in contact with WW many times over the years and suggested setting up a franchise here to help others. To do the training in the Uk to become a leader and they reply that they are just not interested in setting up in Dubai. Which is silly as plenty of people would be very pleased of the help here, as not everyone can do it on their own.

To the point friends asking me to just go ahead regardless. But you can't by law.

So to this date, I have had no joy in taking things further for anyone else. Though still am a member and complete supporter of WW. Seems it worked for me in loosing so much weight.

Good Luck!

Dear Leanne

I was doing a google search for Slimming World Classes in Dubai and came across your postings on Expat Woman. Can you let me know if you found any or set up anything. I'd be interested in joining.

Cheers
Jill
