Diet Plans And Menus - The Weight Watchers Diet

Diet Plans And Menus - The Weight Watchers Diet:

The Weight Watchers Diet was founded in 1963 in the United States. This article describes the Flex option, which aims for a weekly weight loss of a pound (about 0.45 kilograms) with a daily intake of 1,000 to 1,800 calories. This diet relies on points attributed to foods as a function of their caloric, fat, and fiber content. Individuals have a certain number of points to “spend” depending on their height, weight, and sex. Here are some of the diet principles.

Choose your food according to the number of points. Women weighing under 154 pounds (70 kilograms) are allowed 18 points daily, while those weighing 220 pounds (100 kilograms) or more are allowed 26 points, as are men weighing 176 pounds (80 kilograms). Men weighing at least 242 pounds (110 kilograms) are allowed 34 points. Once you have reached your desired weight increase your points progressively to maintain this weight. Eat anything you like; there are no forbidden foods. Once a week go to Weight Watchers meetings and share your experiences with others on the plan. Eat at least five fruits and vegetables daily. Many fruits and vegetables have no points; you may eat as much of them as you wish. Practice a sport.
