1. Weight Watchers Zero Point Foods - A Real Bonus For Dieters
Weight Watchers has been successfully teaching dieters to lose weight and lose fat since the 1960s.
The points system is a relatively new innovation, but has been no less successful and some find it
easier to use than earlier methods.
Parts of the Weight Watchers system is covered and protected by US patents, but broadly the
number of points a person can have to eat in a day is covered by their starting weight:
Less than 150 pounds = 18-25 Points
150 to 174 pounds = 20-27 Points
175 to 199 pounds = 22-29 Points
200 to 224 pounds = 24-31 Points
225 to 250 pounds = 26-33 Points
Over 250 pounds = 28-35 Points
How to allocate your day's food can become crucial when a single Big Mac will costs 14 points and a
slice of undecorated cheesecake will cost 7 points!
Using some zero point foods will bulk up your day's intake without costing any of your points
allocation. Here is a partial list:
asparagus
beets
broccoli
brussels sprouts
cabbage
carrots
cauliflower
celery
cucumber
diet soda
eggplant
leeks
lettuce
mineral water
mushrooms
okra
peppers
pumpkin
radishes
salsa
sauerkraut
scallions

2. snow peas
soy sauce
spinach
sprouts
squash
tomatoes
turnips
watercress
If it isn't obvious from the above, salads - green, garden and mixed - are all zero point Weight
Watchers foods, as are vegetable juices.
If you'd like to mix some lemon or lime juice, salt, pepper, vinegar and mustard, you could have a
zero point salad dressing for your zero point salad. Spend one point and you can add some olive oil!
Lush, indeed.
Understanding how to use the Weight Watchers points system, in it's entirety, and to your benefit -
including the Zero Point Foods - can mean you reaching your weight loss and fat loss goals sooner.
