International Weight Watchers has been around for a long time now and is a very successful diet program that revolves around a balance of exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

A wide range of different foods are allotted a points score and members then make use of a points calculator and recipes which are provided by the program.

Members also attend counseling session in their home area to get both advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes that go along with not just this but any dieting program. Members also have access to online support as well as online menus and points calculators.

Additionally, Weight Watchers make their own range of meals which may be purchased through a lot of the bigger grocery chains.

A points score is allotted to a variety of foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat in every serving. Generally, foods which are high in fat have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on things like body weight and the desired weight loss.

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}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For instance, if the actual figure is lower than 4 this figure is used, however, if the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
