Scroll down to Weight Watchers Points Formula
POINTS = ( calories / 50 ) + ( grams of fat / 12) - ( grams of dietary fiber or 4 whichever is less / 5 )
Eat up to the number Target points per day as shown in the chart below, plus you can eat as much as 35 more Flex-Points per week.
Partial list of Target Values:
Body weight, Target value
Under 150 lbs, 20
150-174, 22
175-199, 24
200-224, 26
225-249, 28
250-274, 30
275-299, 31
plus you can eat as much as 35 more Flex-Points per week.
There is also an Activity Points component where you can eat more points as a reward for exercising. (based on your weight, activity level, and amount of time exercising).
Light activity points = wt x min x .000232
Moderate activity points = wt. x min. x .000327
High activity points = wt x min. x .0008077
Or, if you know the amount of calories burned (for instance, from the display on a piece of excersize equipment), add an activity point for every 100 calories
