Weight Watchers is one of the most popular weight-loss programs in the world. Millions of people have joined it hoping to lose pounds! In fact, Weight Watchers enrolled over 600,000 new subscribers in 2017 alone! Even high-profile celebrities like Oprah Winfrey have found weight-loss success following the program.
The program was founded by Jean Nidetch in 1963 out of her Queens, New York home. From its humble beginnings as a weekly weight-loss group for her friends, Weight Watchers quickly grew into one of the most sought-after diet plans in the world.
How it Works
Weight Watchers has overhauled the points-based system several times over the years, most recently launching the SmartPoints system in 2015. SmartPoints assigns different point values to foods based on factors such as their calorie, fat, protein and sugar contents.
When beginning the program, each dieter is given a set amount of daily points based on personal data like their height, age, gender and weight-loss goals.
One of the amazing benefits of this diet is being able to eat whatever you want, without having to struggle to skip a craving. If everything is based on points, then all you have to do is be firm in the amount of points you have left on your day and choose accordingly.
2 Servings of Leaner Creamer is ONE POINT ONLY. You can compare it with a Grande Coffee Mocha from Starbucks that has 15 points! Yes, you read it right. 15 points for a Coffee Mocha.
