HOW WEIGHT WATCHERS FLEX WORKS
In sImple terms, all food and drink has a smartpoints value, one easy-to-use number based on four components:
1. CALORIES establish the baseline of how many SmartPoints the food is worth. 2. SATURATED FAT and SUGAR increase the SmartPoints value. 3. PROTEIN lowers the SmartPoints value — the more protein, the fewer the SmartPoints.
IN THIS series, you have a wide array of meal options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, desserts and snacks, which all come with different SmartPoints values. Stick to 23 SmartPoints a day and you are certain to lose weight.
When you join Weight Watchers (either by enrolling at a meeting or signing up online), you are given a personalised SmartPoints budget based on your age, weight, height and gender to match your needs.
This includes a tailormade weekly allowance to use on treats, bigger portions or nights out,
and FitPoints added if you exercise regularly. You can roll over a maximum of four unused SmartPoints into your weekly total.
Because 200 foods such as chicken and turkey breast, eggs, fat-free natural yoghurt and most fruit and vegetables have a SmartPoints value of zero, you need never go hungry.
Signing up also gives you access to the brilliant Weight Watchers app and community of other members via Connect, as well as 24/7 support from online coaches who have been in your shoes.
