I love red grapes and eat them frequently thinking they were a healthy snack. When I offered some to a woman at work she declined saying she was on weight watchers and grapes were kind of high on the points. Wouldn't any fruit be a healthy snack?

there is nothing wrong with grapes they are all natural which is what we are supposed to be eating. all fruits contain various types of sugars, they just don't contain one form of sugar. different fruits have different effects on blood sugar and insulin levels, the effect decreased/increased by the serving size consumed.
in terms of losing weight (more importantly reducing body fat) the amount of body fat that a person has is a direct indicator of the bodies current ability to metabolize and utilize nutrients efficiently. people with a high body fat % should consume simple sugars as little as possible even from healthy sources until they have gained control of their body fat level. and when they are consumed they should be consumed as early in the day as possible

I'm on Weight Watchers and I think grapes are a great snack. One point for a cup of them...

oh god not the weight watchers people. "This 100 calorie candy bar loaded with sugar is only 1 point!" Then they wonder why their body composition is saturated with fat.
Nothing wrong with grapes, everything in moderation.

When you diet you need to make choices. For example a peach and an orange may have the same calories and they're both healthy ...but the best choice by far would be the orange.

I'd say she was a nut. I suppose they might have sugar in them (fructose) but not enough to turn them down. mmmmm, I love grapes.
just be sure to wash them properly.
