International Weight Watchers has been around for many years now and has proved to be an incredibly successful commercial diet program that revolves around a balance of exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

Different foods are given a points value and members then use a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes that are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend local counseling sessions to get advice and ideas and to help with the changes in lifestyle that accompany not just this but any diet plan. There is also online support and online points calculators and menus.

As well, Weight Watchers have their own range of meals which may be purchased at a number of the larger grocery chains.

A points value is given to foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat in every serving. Usually, foods which are high in fat will have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber will have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on things like 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

(Please note: in the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. That means that, if the actual dietary figure is under 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used.

Here you will find some examples of the points given to certain foods:
