On the Biography channel last fall there was a program about Jean Nidetch,
founder of Weight Watchers.  It said the original WW diet was a low carb
diet Jean had picked up at the New York Health Dept.

I think that's what they promote-- as a lifelong lifestyle change.  Have
never gone to WW myself but I've heard that there are people doing it
low-carb.
