Weight Watchers Simply the Best:
250 Prizewinning Family Recipes

International Weight Watchers has been around for many years now and has proved to be a tremendously successful diet program which centers on a balance of 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 hundreds of great recipes that are provided by the program.

Members are also encouraged to attend local counseling sessions for both advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes which accompany any diet plan. Members can also get online support together with online menus and calculators.

To further assist members, Weight Watchers make their own line of meals that can be bought through a number of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is allocated to a variety of foods based upon the portion size, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. As a general rule, high fat foods have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent upon such things as 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. So, if the actual figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is greater than 4 then 4 is used.

Here we have given a few examples of the points values assigned to certain foods:
