How do you calculate points for Weight Watchers?

Answer 1

You go by calories, total fat, and dietary fiber. It's on the website.

Answer 2

Start each day with a POINTS Target

You will start each day with a specified POINTS Target, based on your current weight. In addition to your POINTS Target, you can also use any Activity POINTS you've earned within the day as well as any amount of remaining weekly FlexPoints.

You have a weekly reserve of 35 FlexPoints for special occasions

There are likely to be occasions when you'll choose to exceed your POINTS Target, e.g., when you're going to a party or dining out. Plan for those occasions by making sure you have set aside some of your 35 FlexPoints ahead of time.

You can earn more POINTS from exercise

Need an incentive to get active? On FlexPoints, you can earn additional POINTS to use for Food POINTS that day by doing some exercise.

Your POINTS Target will change as you lose weight

That's because the less you weigh, the less food you need to eat to lose weight in a safe way. If you're interested to see the POINTS for other weight ranges, refer to the chart below.

Weight Watchers POINTS Target Current Weight POINTS Target

Less than 150 pounds 20

150 - 174 pounds 22

175 - 199 pounds 24

200 - 224 pounds 26

225 - 249 pounds 28

250 - 274 pounds 30

275 - 299 pounds 31

300 - 324 pounds 32

325 - 349 pounds 33

More than 350 pounds This is no longer the method of determining your daily points target. You should attend a meeting or register online to take the quiz that will determine your personal daily points target.

Answer 3

You figure this out by buying a points calculator it can come in a few forms depending on how new it is, the new ones are actual small special calculators. To use the calculator you find out the kJ in a serving size of the food then you enter the SATURATED fat then it will tell you the number of points that food is in a serving. You find this information on the nutritional label on the food paket if this is not there or it is a fruit or vege eg. banana then the books and weightwatchers people tell you, most fruits and vegies are small in point value or have none but it is still wise to add their points on evevnif it's only 1/2 point.
