Weight Watchers Family Power:
5 Simple Rules for a Healthy-Weight Home

Weight Watchers has been about for a long time and has proved to be an incredibly successful diet program which centers on balancing exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

Food is given a points score and Weight Watchers members use a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes which are provided by the program.

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

In addition, Weight Watchers produce their own range of meals that can be bought through many of the bigger grocery chains.

A points score is assigned to a variety of foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the amount of fat in each serving. In general, foods which are high in fat will have a high points score and high fiber foods will have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends upon things like body weight and target weight.

The points formula is:

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. In other words, if the actual figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used.

Here you can see some examples of the points given to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Low-fat brownie sundae	326	3.2	72	4.6	6
Corn on the cob	140	2	34	2	3
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
Low-fat Asian chicken salad	714	9	121	9.6	14
