A wide range of different foods are assigned a points value and members then use a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes provided by the program. Members also attend local counseling sessions for advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes which accompany not just this but any dieting plan. There is also online support together with online menus and points calculators. As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers have their own range of meals that you can get through a number of the bigger grocery chains. A points value is assigned to various foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. Generally speaking, foods which are high in fat have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber have a low points value. The daily allowance for dieters then depends on such things as his or her body weight and the desired weight loss. The points formula is:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Please note: in the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. In other words, if the actual dietary figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, but, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
