Weight Watchers Family Power: 5 Simple Rules for a Healthy-Weight Home

Weight Watchers Family Power:
5 Simple Rules for a Healthy-Weight Home

Weight Watchers has been with us for a long time and has proved itself to be a hugely successful commercial diet program which focuses on a balance of low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

Food items are allotted a points score and members then use a points calculator and recipes that are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend local counseling sessions to get both ideas and advice and to assist with the lifestyle changes which accompany not just this but any dieting plan. Members are also provided with online support and online menus and calculators.

As well, Weight Watchers have their own line of meals that can be purchased at a number of the larger grocery chains.

A points score is allocated to various foods according to the portion size, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the amount of fat contained in each serving. Generally speaking, foods which are high in fat will have a high points score and high fiber foods will have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent on 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:

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 under 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used.

Below you will find a few examples of the points values assigned to particular foods:
