As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals which you can get through a number of the bigger grocery chains. A points value is allotted to various foods according to the portion size, the number of calories, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in every serving. Generally speaking, high fat foods have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends upon things like his or her body weight and the desired weight loss. The formula for calculating a points value is:
