Weight Watchers Make It in Minutes:
Easy Recipes in 15, 20, and 30 Minutes

Weight Watchers has been about for a long time and has proved to be a hugely successful diet program that centers on balancing low fat nutrition, exercise and counseling.

A wide range of different foods are assigned a points value and members then make use of a points calculator and simple to follow recipes that are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend counseling sessions locally to get both advice and ideas and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that accompany any diet plan. Members are also provided with online support as well as online menus and calculators.

To further assist members, Weight Watchers make their own line of meals which you can buy at a lot of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is given 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 each serving. Generally, high fat foods 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 on such things as his or her body weight and target weight.

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}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. That means that, if the actual figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used.

Below you will find some examples of the points assigned to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Low-fat grilled chicken pasta	873	8.9	134.3	10.3	17
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
