Move your WeightWatchers history into TrainRec
WeightWatchers doesn't offer a data export in its app. The quickest way across is a few screenshots of your WW food diary and weight history, given to your connected assistant, which sets up your usual meals and targets in TrainRec. You can also request a copy of your data from WW.
How it gets in
Best results: your assistant. A connected assistant reads any export whole, fixes dates and units as it goes, and can bring in food and measurements, not just workouts. Coach, the chat built into TrainRec, is best for telling it what you did and for small pasted pieces. The other routes are there when you'd rather not involve either.
No export? Use screenshotsConnect planBest results
Take screenshots of a few typical days in your WeightWatchers diary, attach them in your connected assistant's chat and say "Set up my usual meals and targets in TrainRec from these." It doesn't need your whole history, just enough to see what you usually eat.
Each entry your assistant adds is marked with its name in Changes, so you can check what came in and undo anything that's wrong. Screenshots work with a connected assistant. Coach takes typed messages only, so tell Coach your routine or usual meals in words instead.
Export from WeightWatchers
- Request your data. Email privacy@ww.com and ask for a copy of your data in a portable format. WW may ask you to verify who you are.
- Or start fresh with your assistant. Tell your assistant your weight history and targets, like "I was 210 in January and I'm 196 now". It logs your weigh-ins and sets your targets.
- Give it any file you get. When WW sends your data, attach it in your assistant's chat and say "Import this into TrainRec".
- Check it in TrainRec. Your history shows up on the calendar and in your records. Something look off? Ask your assistant to fix it. You can also undo the whole batch from Changes.
Good to know
- Points don't carry over. TrainRec tracks calories, protein, carbs and fat, and your assistant can set targets that fit your plan.
