Here is how your POINT ranges may convert to calories.

 This information was copied from the Newbie Boards and is not necessarily an official determination by Weight Watchers.


This can vary some due to O point foods.(fiber)

18-23 points = 1050-1342 calories ~ for less than 150 pounds
20-25 points = 1167-1458 calories ~ for 150-174 pounds
22-27 points = 1283-1575 calories ~ for 175-199 pounds
24-29 points = 1400-1692 calories ~ for 200-224 pounds
26-31 points = 1517-1808 calories ~ for 225-249 pounds
28-33 points = 1633-1925 calories ~ for 250-274 pounds
29-34 points = 1695-1983 calories ~ for 275-299 pounds
30-35 points = 1750-2042 calories ~ for 300-324 pounds
31-36 points = 1808-2100 calories ~ for 325-349 pounds
32-37 points = 1867-2158 calories ~ for more than 350 pounds

The kcal levels assume you are getting in your servings of 0 point veggies (and fiber credit) even though you do not have to include them in your points total. (one point is on average 58.33 calories - yet a point can go as high as 110 calories if you have 0 fat and 4 grams fiber)

SERVING SIZES: FRUIT, VEGGIES & CALCIUM
(info taken from American Diabetes Association and the Food Guide Pyramid)

One Serving Fruit/Veggie =
1/2 cup raw, cooked, cut-up, frozen or canned fruit/veggies
1 medium-sized fruit (ex. apple, orange, banana, pear)
1/4 cup dried fruit (ex. raisins, apricots, cherries)
3/4 cup (6 oz.) of 100 percent fruit or vegetable juice
1/2 cup cooked or canned legumes (beans and peas)
1 cup of raw, leafy vegetables (ex. lettuce, spinach)

One Serving of Calcium = 25% or more of the RDA (check the label), or 1 cup milk, 8 oz yogurt, 1 ½½ - 2 oz natural cheese or 2 oz processed cheese
