Weight Watchers Simply the Best:
250 Prizewinning Family Recipes

Weight Watchers has been about for a long time now and has proved itself to be a hugely successful commercial diet program which centers on balancing low fat nutrition, exercise and guidance.

Different foods are allotted a points value and members make use of a points calculator and hundreds of easy to follow recipes which are provided by the program.

Participants are also encouraged to attend local counseling sessions to get ideas and advice and to help with the lifestyle changes which accompany any diet plan. Members are also provided with online support together with online menus and calculators.

As well, Weight Watchers make their own range of meals that may be purchased through a number of the bigger grocery chains.

A points value is assigned to foods according to the size of the portion, the number of calories, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in every serving. Generally, foods which are high in fat will have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber will have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on things like his or her body weight and the desired weight loss.

The formula for calculating a points value is:

weight watchers formula

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

(Please note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. For example, if the actual figure is under 4 then this figure is used, but, if the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.

Below we have given a few examples of the points scores given to particular foods:

Food	Calories	Fat (g)	Carbohydrates	Fiber	Points
Big Mac	590	34	47	3	14
Corn on the cob	140	2	34	2	3
Cheeseburger	330	14	35	2	7
