Weight Watchers Point System
The weight watchers point system is very simple. Everyone on the plan is assigned a certain amount of points depending on their weight. Daily points ranges are as follows:
150 pounds: 18 to 23 points
150 to 174lbs: 20 to 25 points
175 to 199lbs: 22 to 27 points
200 to 224lbs: 24 to 29 points
225 to 249lbs: 26 to 31 points
250 to 274lbs: 28 to 33 points
275 to 299lbs: 29 to 34 points
300 to 324lbs: 30 to 35 points
325 to 349lbs: 31 to 36 points
Over 350lbs: 32 to 37 points
To lose weight, dieters must stay within their points range, though 35 additional points are allowed to be spread out through the week. Points can also be added or subtracted dependent on exercise. Many people prefer the Weight Watchers Flex Point program as it allows them more freedom than other diets, and they can eat just about anything they like as long as they stay within their range.
