Weight Watchers Take-Out Tonight! :
150+ Restaurant Favorites to Make at Home--All 8 POINTS or Less

Weight Watchers has been around for many years now and has proved to be a hugely successful diet program which focuses on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

Different foods are assigned a points value and Weight Watchers members use a points calculator and hundreds of great recipes provided by the program.

Members are also encouraged to attend counseling session in their local area to get both ideas and advice and to assist with the lifestyle changes which accompany any diet plan. There is also online support and online points calculators and menus.

As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers have their own range of meals which may be purchased through many of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is given to various foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in every serving. Generally, foods which are high in fat will have a high points value and high fiber foods will have a low points value. The daily allowance for dieters then depends upon such things as body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve.

The points formula is as follows:

weight watchers formula

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

(Note: in the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. Accordingly, if the actual figure is lower than 4 this figure is used, however, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

Below you can see a few examples of the points assigned to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Medium Fries	450	22	57	5	10
Corn on the cob	140	2	34	2	3
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
