All foods are worth POINTS, based on their calorie, fat, and fiber content. Instead of weighing and measuring foods, we simply count up points. The plan provides guidelines for healthy eating.

“Spend” your points on the foods you love using your calculator. You choose how you want to “spend” your allotted points for the day, using food lists, or the calculator.

“No food is a no-no!” Since every food has a POINTS value, no food is “off limits.”

Earn extra points with exercise! You are encouraged to reduce sedentary behavior and progressively increase activity. You can figure your activity points with another calculator.

Research shows that people who go to Weight Watchers meetings are much more likely to lose weight than people who try to lose weight on their own. In fact, each week more than one million members attend approximately 39,000 Weight Watchers meetings in 30 countries around the world.
