Weight Watchers Points Pepsi


Weight Watchers has been about for many years now and has proved itself to be a hugely successful commercial diet program that concentrates on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

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

Participants also attend counseling session in their home area to get both advice and ideas and to assist with the changes in lifestyle that go along with any dieting program. Members also have access to online support as well as online points calculators and menus.

To further assist members, Weight Watchers produce their own range of meals which you can purchase at a lot of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is given to foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat contained in every serving. Normally, high fat foods will have a high points value and high fiber foods will have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on things like body weight and target weight.

The points formula 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}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual figure is under 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
