Weight Watchers Family Power:
5 Simple Rules for a Healthy-Weight Home

International Weight Watchers has been with us for a long time and has proved itself to be an incredibly successful commercial diet program that centers on a balance of low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

Items of food are assigned a points value and members then make use of a points calculator and a wide range of recipes which are provided by the program.

Participants also attend counseling session in their home area for advice and ideas and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that go along with any diet plan. Members are also provided with online support and online menus and calculators.

To further help participants, Weight Watchers have their own line of meals which can be purchased through a lot of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is given to a variety of foods according to the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat contained in every serving. As a rule, foods which are high in fat have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value. The daily allowance for dieters is then dependent on such things as his or her body weight and how much weight he or she wants to lose.

The formula used to calculate a points score is as follows:

weight watchers formula

Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams

(Note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual figure is less than 4 this figure is used, however, where the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used.

Here are some examples of the points values assigned to certain foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Corn on the cob	140	2	34	2	3
Low-fat brownie sundae	326	3.2	72	4.6	6
Medium Fries	450	22	57	5	10
