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

Weight Watchers has been around for a long time now and has proved itself to be a fabulously successful diet program that centers on a balance of low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

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

Participants also attend counseling session in their home area for advice and ideas and to help with the changes in lifestyle that go along with any diet plan. Members are also provided with online support together with online menus and calculators.

To further help participants, Weight Watchers produce their own range of meals which can be purchased at many of the larger grocery chains.

A points score is assigned to foods based upon the portion size, the number of calories, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in each serving. Generally speaking, foods which are high in fat have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber have a low points score. The daily allowance for dieters then depends upon things like body weight and the desired weight loss.

The points formula is:

weight watchers formula

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

(Please note: in the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. In other words, if the actual figure is under 4 this figure is used, but, if the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
