5 Simple Rules for a Healthy-Weight Home

International Weight Watchers has been about for many years and has proved to be a hugely successful diet program that revolves around balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

A wide range of different foods are assigned a points score and members then make use of a points calculator and hundreds of great recipes provided by the program.

Participants also attend counseling session in their local area for ideas and advice and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that go along with not just this but any dieting plan. Members also have access to online support and online menus and calculators.

In addition, Weight Watchers have their own range of meals that can be bought at a number of the larger grocery chains.

A points score is allotted to foods based upon the portion size, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in every serving. As a general rule, high fat foods will have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber will have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on such things as body weight and target weight.

The points formula 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. For example, if the actual dietary figure is lower than 4 then this figure is used, but, if the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used.

Below are some examples of the points scores assigned to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
Big Mac	590	34	47	3	14
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
