Weight Watchers New 365 Day Menu Cookbook:
Complete Meals for Every Day of the Year

International Weight Watchers has been about for many years now and has proved to be a hugely successful diet program which focuses on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

Food items are allotted a points value and Weight Watchers members use a points calculator and hundreds of great recipes which are provided by the program.

Members also attend counseling sessions locally for ideas and advice and to assist with the changes in lifestyle which go along with not just this but any diet plan. There is also online support as well as online points calculators and menus.

As if this were not enough, Weight Watchers produce their own range of meals that may be purchased through a lot of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is allocated to a variety of foods according to the size of the portion, the number of calories, 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 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 used to calculate a points score is as follows:

weight watchers formula

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

(Note: in the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual dietary figure is under 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

Here are just some examples of the points given to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
Low-fat grilled chicken pasta	873	8.9	134.3	10.3	17
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
