Weight Watchers Take-Out Tonight! :
150+ Restaurant Favorites to Make at Home--All 8 POINTS or Less

weight watchers books. Weight Watchers has been part of our lives for a great many years now and is an incredibly successful diet program that focuses on a balance of exercise, counseling and low fat nutrition.

Food is assigned a points value and members use a points "calculator" and recipes provided by the program.

Members are also encouraged to drop in on local counseling sessions for ideas and advice and to help with the lifestyle changes that accompany any diet program. Online support is also available, in addition to online menus, calculators and recipes.

In addition, Weight Watchers make their own line of meals that can be purchased in a variety of larger grocery stores.

The points value given to various different foods is based upon the amount of fiber, the quantity of fat, the number of calories and the size of the portion in each serving. Generall speaking, high fat foods have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value. The daily allowance for members then depends upon such things as body weight and the desired weight loss.

The points formula used is:

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

(Note: in the term (minr, 4) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber is used in the calculation. In other words, if the actual figure is less than 4 this is used, however, if the figure is larger than 4 then 4 is used.

Here are various examples of the points allotted to particular foods:
