International Weight Watchers has been with us for a long time now and has proved itself to be a very successful diet program that focuses on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and guidance.

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

Participants are also encouraged to attend counseling session in their home area for both ideas and advice and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that accompany any diet plan. Members also have access to online support together with online menus and calculators.

Additionally, Weight Watchers make their own line of meals which you can purchase through a lot of the larger grocery chains.

A points value is allocated to a variety of foods according to the size of the portion, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. In general, foods which are high in fat have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent upon things like body weight and the desired weight loss.

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}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. In other words, if the actual figure is less than 4 this figure is used, but, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

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

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
Low-fat grilled chicken pasta	873	8.9	134.3	10.3	17
