Weight Watchers Make It in Minutes:
Easy Recipes in 15, 20, and 30 Minutes

International Weight Watchers has been about for many years and has proved to be an incredibly successful commercial diet program that concentrates on balancing low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

Food items are allotted a points value and members use a points calculator and recipes which are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend local counseling sessions to get both advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes that go along with any diet plan. Members also have access to online support as well as online menus and calculators.

As well, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals that you can get through a lot of the larger grocery chains.

A points value is assigned to foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. Generally speaking, high fat foods have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends upon things like body weight and the desired weight loss.

The formula for calculating a points value is:

weight watchers formula

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

(Please 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 dietary figure is under 4 this figure is used, but, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

Below are a few examples of the points values given to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
Big Mac	590	34	47	3	14
Low-fat Asian chicken salad	714	9	121	9.6	14
