International Weight Watchers has been about for many years and has proved to be a hugely successful diet program which concentrates on a balance of exercise, low fat nutrition and counseling.

Members also attend counseling sessions locally to get advice and ideas and to assist with the lifestyle changes which go along with any diet program. Members also have access to online support as well as online menus and calculators.

Additionally, Weight Watchers make their own line of meals that you can purchase at many of the larger grocery chains.

A points value is assigned to a variety of foods according to the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in every serving. Generally speaking, foods which are high in fat have a high points value and high fiber foods have a low points value.

Here are some examples of the points scores given to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Low-fat Asian chicken salad	714	9	121	9.6	14
