Different foods are given a points score and members then make use of a points calculator and hundreds of great recipes which are provided by the program. Participants also attend counseling session in their local area for advice and ideas and to assist with the changes in lifestyle which go along with any diet program. Members also have access to online support and online menus and calculators. As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers have their own line of meals that you can buy at a number of the bigger grocery chains. A points score is given to a variety of foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat in every serving. As a rule, high fat foods have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on such things as body weight and target weight. The formula used to calculate a points score is:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Please note: in the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual dietary figure is lower than 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
