details of this Weight Watchers book:

International Weight Watchers has been about for a long time and is a hugely successful diet program which concentrates on balancing low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

Food items are given a points value and Weight Watchers members then use a points calculator and a wide range of recipes which are provided by the program.

Participants also attend counseling sessions locally to get both advice and ideas and to help with the changes in lifestyle which go along with any diet plan. Members can also get online support together with online menus and calculators.

To further assist members, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals which you can get at many of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is given to various foods based upon the size of the portion, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in each serving. As a rule, high fat foods have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value. The daily allowance for dieters is then dependent upon such things as his or her body weight and the desired weight loss.

The formula used to calculate a points score is:

weight watchers formula

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

(Note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. Accordingly, if the actual dietary figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, but, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

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

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Low-fat Asian chicken salad	714	9	121	9.6	14
Big Mac	590	34	47	3	14
Low-fat grilled chicken pasta	873	8.9	134.3	10.3	17
