WWP Calculators
Note: These are just a beta versions, I haven’t tested them on many browsers. If you have a problem using it please let me know.
I used WW public information to create theseCalculators. Weight Watchers owns the formula and points system. This is just a tool that I use based on materials Weight Watchers has published. I am not claiming ownership of points or charging people for using this tool. I am not responsible if it does not work or if you do not lose weight. I was more successful going to Weight Watcher Meetings and I recommend you attend to aid your weight loss efforts.
The points may be slightly different then found on your material considering the decimal places.

I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...] -
I just made a quick, tasty one pot meal the whole family ate without complaint! And when I say "whole" I mean WHOLE! The Baby, The Little Guy, AND The Picky Eater Husband! Here's the story…I was in NO mood to spend a lot of time on dinner. The thought [...] -
Sunday I made this sandwich on a complete whim. I just bought a bunch of red delicious apples (they were on sale.) I had 2 slices of turkey breast left in the fridge and a few wedges of The Laughing Cow Cheese just waiting to be used. As you guys may [...] -
I bought a bag of kale instead of a bag of spinach this week. My plan was to figure out ways to get this power house vegetable IN me and hopefully IN my family, although unless I hide it, they aren't game. According to NutritionData.com, Kale... [...]

[...] Watchers. I’ve borrowed the paper materials from a friend and the web is an insanely useful tool for diets. I chose WW because they have a program for nursing [...]
Hey Roni, do you know if there is a calculator that could be downloaded to a handheld device/ pda?
Dione – I don’t but you aren’t the first person to ask. If I have time I’ll research a bit and see if I can come up with the something.
A lot of people have asked about various points calculator applications. I’ve found this one http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Points_Calculator/1091977865/1 to be quite useful. Its discrete enough that I feel comfortable using it up on the screen at work. Maybe it could be downloaded to a PDA. The only downside it is won’t take decimals like Roni’s calculator, but its close enough for most situations. PS Roni, thanks for all your stories, I’ve been reading for about a year now and it makes me feel like I’m doing this with a friend. :)
Dione- I use a Palm PDA program that not only counts points, but is a journal as well. It is a fabulous program that only works with Palm OS though. If anyone wants a copy of it let me know. It was kind of banned by WW in 2004, even though the programer was giving out for free. It is so much better than the WW On-the-Go version. To bad WW didn’t hire the guy to write stuff for WW. He truly has a talent for a good program. It is called WWCalc.

In regards to the post on September 14th from Dione:
Currently there is nothing out there right now. However, I do know that there is something in the works. The company is called Briobody and they are at http://www.briobody.com. Its almost like face book for nutrition and excersise. They should be launching by the end of October.
what is the formule for ww food points? x g of total weight (add, substract, multiply, etc) x g of fat (add, substract, multiply, etc) x g of fiber = X. this is the one I am looking for. I wouldn’t mind doing it in my head.
thanks
http://www.healthyweightforum.org/eng/articles/weight_watchers_points/ Shows the formula.
Basically:
Points = (calories/50) + (fat/12) – (fiber/5), where fiber is limited to 4.
Not great to do your head, but you can certainly write a program into your calculator/PDA/food log spreadsheet. (Yes, I’m an engineer.)
Hi Roni,
Just a quick question – I live in the UK and have recently started following the Weightwatchers Plan. The UK site has a WW Points Target Calculator but it is giving me different figures to your one here. It is telling me to aim for 2 points lower than yours (female, 39yrs, 163 lbs, 5’8″, sitting down most of the day). Weight watcher site says 19 points, your calculator says 21. I just wondered if you knew why this was, I thought the points system was universal?
Thanks for your help, Janey. x
I have heard that they are not universal. Things are always bigger in the US….
Janey, From what I know they are not universal. Weight Watchers has slightly different programs in different countries. I’m not quit sure why.
In the US they are launching a new prgram this week, maybe the will match up after that??
I’ll be posting about it mid week.
We’ll see! :)
I have recently been diagnosed with diabetes and I was told by a friend with diabetes that her doctor recommended Weight Watchers. I am also on a 2000 miligram of sodium diet to boot. Any comments or suggestions on this would be helpful
There is an app for the iphone that calculates WWP. It’s available on the itunes store. Search “points.”
Also, to Gwen: My suggestion: get yourself officially on WW, go to the meetings and do the online tools. It’s the only approach that’s ever worked, long term, for me and for anyone I know who’s succeeded in the long run. And it’s ideal for people with Type 2 diabetes. Opt for the filling foods and away from any simple carbs.
Louis – I have been looking for a non internet points diary for WW. I think you are referring to the one that everyone says will work on my PALM OS.
Would you send me a copy?
I haven’t blogged or responded to conversations on a website – OOOHH I hope this works.
Anyone willing/able to share the nformula/ algorithm for daily target points? Thanks
Stephanie – It’s on wikipedia… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_Watchers
I see thee forumlas for how many points are in a food or recipe. What I am looking for is the determination of the total daily point target, what you are calling Daily WWP Target calculator. It is based on gender, current weight, age…
Am I being stoopid and not seeing it in wick?
Thanks

Hi Roni, Please send me the WWcalc for palm pda. I had it on my palm but lost it because my palm was uncharged for a while and it was not saved on my computer. Please help.

Could you please tell me how many points do I need with this new weight watchers program. I can’t afford the meetings anymore. My weight has really gotten out of control.
Kathy – It’s not like the old plan. There is no formula. They tell you what yours in when you weigh in. I *think* most people get around 29.
