details of this Weight Watchers book:

International Weight Watchers has been with us for many years and has proved itself to be a very successful diet program that revolves around a balance of low fat nutrition, exercise and counseling.

Items of food are assigned a points score and Weight Watchers members then make use of a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes provided by the program.

Members also attend counseling session in their local area to get advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes that accompany not just this but any dieting program. Members are also provided with online support together with online menus and calculators.

To further help participants, Weight Watchers produce their own line of meals that you can purchase at a number of the larger grocery chains.

A points score is assigned to various foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat contained in each serving. Generally, high fat foods have a high points score and high fiber foods have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends upon such things as his or her body weight and the desired weight loss.

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}) a maximum of 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, however, if the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used.

Here are just a few examples of the points scores assigned to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Quarter Pounder with cheese	430	30	38	2	13
Medium Fries	450	22	57	5	10
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
Big Mac	590	34	47	3	14
