details of this Weight Watchers book: ![]() Weight Watchers New 365 Day Menu Cookbook: Complete Meals for Every Day of the Year International Weight Watchers has been around for many years now and is a very successful diet program that centers on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling. A wide range of different foods are assigned a points score and Weight Watchers members then make use of a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes provided by the program. Members are also encouraged to attend counseling sessions locally for both advice and ideas and to help with the lifestyle changes that accompany not just this but any diet program. Members can also get online support together with online menus and points calculators. To further assist members, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals which may be purchased at many of the bigger grocery chains. A points score 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 each serving. Generally, foods which are high in fat will have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber will have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent on things like body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve. The formula for calculating a points value is:
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 under 4 this figure is used, but, if the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used. Below we have given some examples of the points values given to particular foods:
