Weight Watchers incorporates a points-based system to help participants lose weight. Your current weight and goal weight are used to determine a daily allowed amount of maximum points. Foods are assigned values, and you are to track what you eat each day. Weight Watchers offers a line of its own foods to help you choose low-fat foods and easily determine point values.
Dairy
Weight Watchers produces both yogurts and cheeses with low point values. Types of cheeses available are Swiss, cheddar, pepper jack, Mexican blend, string cheese and cream cheese. The cheeses are sold as individual slices, spreads, wedges or bags of shredded cheese. Each serving has one or two points. Multi-packs and individual containers are available for the Weight Watchers brand yogurt. Flavors include lemon cream pie, strawberry, peach, vanilla and black cherry. Each serving is only one point.
Breads
The breads from Weight Watchers are high in fiber and only cost one to two points each serving. Bagels, seedless rye bread, multi-grain bread, whole-wheat bread, sandwich rolls, pita bread and English muffins are available from the weight loss company.
Frozen Meals
Smart Ones is the frozen food product line from Weight Watchers. Most entrees contain between four and eight points. The foods are microwaveable, and you usually est them for lunch or dinner while following the diet. Entrees include stuffed turkey breast, Swedish meatballs, Salisbury steak, lasagna, pizza, chicken oriental, three cheese macaroni and tuna noodle gratin.
