Weight Watchers Diet Coke CakeInternational Weight Watchers has been around for many years and is a fabulously successful commercial diet program that centers on a balance of exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling. Food is assigned a points value and Weight Watchers members make use of a points calculator and hundreds of great recipes provided by the program. Participants are also encouraged to attend counseling sessions locally for advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes that accompany any dieting plan. Members can also get online support and online menus and points calculators. As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers produce their own range of meals which you can get at many of the larger grocery chains. A points value is assigned to various foods based upon the size of the portion, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat in each serving. Usually, high fat foods will have a high points value and high fiber foods will have a low points value. The daily allowance for dieters is then dependent on things like body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve. The formula used to calculate a points score is as follows:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Note: in the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, but, where the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used. Here you will find some examples of the points values assigned to particular foods:
