Weight Watchers Magazine Media Kit


Weight Watchers has been around for many years now and has proved to be a very successful commercial diet program that concentrates on a balance of exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

A wide range of different foods are assigned a points score and Weight Watchers members use a points calculator and a wide range of recipes that are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend counseling sessions locally for ideas and advice and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that go along with not just this but any diet program. Members can also get online support together with online menus and calculators.

As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals that can be purchased at a number of the larger grocery chains.

A points score is allotted to various foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. As a rule, foods which are high in fat have a high points score and high fiber foods have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent upon such things as his or her body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve.

The formula for calculating a points value is as follows:

weight watchers formula

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

(Please note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. That means that, if the actual figure is under 4 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 scores assigned to particular foods:
