Sample 30 Point Weight Watchers Menu

Sample 30 Point Weight Watchers Menu

We include products we think are useful for our readers. If you buy through links on this page, we may earn a small commission. Here's our process.

Weight Watchers is a diet program with millions of members in over 30 different countries around the world.

It was founded by Jean Nidetch, a Brooklyn homemaker, in 1963. Nidetch and a group of friends in Queens, NY, started meeting once a week to talk about how to lose weight.

Today, Weight Watchers is an international company and the largest commercial weight loss program in the United States (U.S.). Approved by many physicians, it is available in various settings, from the local community to the workplace and online.

The program includes regular meetings, self-help type learning sessions, group support, and a points system. The dieter aims for a target weight or a body mass index (BMI) of between 20 and 25, considered the ideal range.

This article is part of a series called What are the eight most popular diets today?.

Personalized plans, meetings, one-to-one coaching, and online tools help dieters achieve their goals.

Community is important for Weight Watchers. It provides a support network for people who want to lose weight. This, they say, is essential for both short-term and long-term success.

The support system provides ongoing positive reinforcement for dieters. Attempting to lose weight can be stressful, but community support can make the process less daunting.

Weight Watchers members attend regular meetings, where they learn about nutrition and exercise, as well as having their weight loss progress monitored.

Anyone can join Weight Watchers, as long as they are at least 5 pounds (lb), or 2.3 kilograms (kg), over the minimum weight for their height.

Busy people who cannot attend meetings can sign up to the online community.

Coaching

Apart from group meetings, Weight Watchers offers one-on-one coaching and a personalized action plan. A personal coach can help the individual make a plan that suits their lifestyle and routine.

Members can communicate with their coach by email, text, or phone.

Weight Watchers dieters are not restricted to specific foods or activities. Instead, they use a point system to monitor themselves on a daily basis. This makes them accountable for their weight loss activities each day. Members can record smart points on their mobile device.

The point system helps people lose weight over the long term.

Points depend on fat, sugar, and protein. The higher the protein content, the lower the points gained. The higher the fat and sugar content, the more points that food has, and the less you can eat.

The points encourage members to change their dietary habits, to eat more fruit, vegetable, and lean protein, and less fatty, sugary food.

Here is an example:

• an egg is worth 2 points
• two tablespoons of low-fat cheddar cheese are worth 1 point
• chopped tomatoes, onion and fresh herbs are worth 0 points
• one tablespoon of olive oil is worth 1 point

A person who eats a 2-egg cheese omelet fried with olive oil and sprinkled with tomato, onion and herbs uses up 4 points. If their target for the day is 30 points, they now have 26 points left.

A person will aim to achieve within a certain range of points, depending on how heavy they are and how much weight they need to lose.

A person who weighs 150 pounds, for example, will aim to gain 18 to 23 points a day. Someone who weighs over 350 pounds may aim to collect between 32 and 37 points in a day.

Members also can gain "Fit points" for activities such as cleaning, walking, or gardening.

An etool can be used to record the points digitally.

Each person has their own daily and weekly target points to meet in their own way, but within the limits agreed.

Share on Pinterest

Members who keep within a certain weight range during the Maintenance period do not pay to attend meetings.

After an initial weight loss period, members can reach their target weight. At this point, they enter a maintenance period. Their daily allowance increases by 6 points, but they continue to track their food intake and activity levels.

For 6 weeks, they gradually increase their food intake until they are neither losing nor gaining weight.

During these 6 weeks, there are regular weigh-ins. If a member manages to stay within 2 pounds, or 0.91 kg of their target weight during the 6-week period, they then become a "Lifetime Member."

Lifetime Members can attend any Weight Watchers meeting free of charge as long as they weigh in once every month, and do not stray from their target weight by more than 2 pounds or 0.91 kg.

Lifetime members who drift from their weight target range have to pay weekly for meetings. They can then recover their Lifetime membership by going through the process again.

Findings published in The Lancet in 2011 suggested that patients who were referred by their doctors to Weight Watchers lost about twice as much weight as those on standard weight loss care over a 12-month period.

The researchers concluded:

"Referral by a primary health-care professional to a commercial weight loss programme that provides regular weighing, advice about diet and physical activity, motivation, and group support can offer a clinically useful early intervention for weight management in overweight and obese people that can be delivered at large scale."

Another study, published in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, found that adults who attended at least 2 in every 3 Weight Watchers sessions for 6-months significantly reduced their fasting glucose and insulin levels, as well as losing weight.

In 2011, researchers described Weight Watchers as a "useful first line weight loss intervention" for the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS) to refer patients to if they needed and wanted to lose weight.

A review of 45 studies, published in 2015 in Annals of Internal Medicine, suggests that Weight Watchers may be a suitable program for physicians to recommend to patients who wish to lose weight.

Anyone who is considering a radical change to their diet should discuss plans with their physician first.

Dieters can either join a Weight Watchers program online or in person, and they can opt for meetings only, or they can add an online option, individual coaching, or both. Attending meetings is recommended.

The features offered include:

• Food and activity tracking
• Personalized goals
• Weekly group meetings
• 24/7 online chat support
• Synching with fitness trackers
• Private weigh-in every week
• Guidebooks and resources
• Personal coach and unlimited one-on-one phone sessions

The Weight Watchers website provides a wide range of recipes to help their members lose weight and engage in a healthier lifestyle.

The cost of joining Weight Watchers depends on the package and the location of the meetings. A monthly pass gives access to unlimited meetings and etools. It may be cheaper to buy a 3-monthly subscription.

Cost To Tile Bathroom Walls And Floor

Cost To Tile Bathroom Walls And Floor

• How To's & Quick Tips

How Much Tile Do I Need? Solved!

Follow these easy steps to make sure that you stock enough material for your next tile project.

Photo: istockphoto.cm

Q: I plan on installing tile on my entryway floor and kitchen backsplash. How much tile do I need to buy in each case?

A: You're wise to mull over your tile needs before you go shopping for materials. Whether you're installing tile on your foyer floor or on your kitchen or bathroom walls, determining how much tile you need is an essential first step. This calculation will help you ensure adequate tile coverage, budget accordingly for the project, and avoid return trips to your local home center. Conveniently, the steps for determining your tile needs are the same regardless of surface, so grab a measuring tape and a calculator and get started!

Photo: istockphoto.com

1. Measure the area you plan to tile.

Measure the area you're tiling based on its shape:

• For square or rectangular areas, such as a wall or floor, multiply the length by the width to get the area in square feet. If the dimensions aren't a whole number (i.e., the measurement includes feet and inches), divide the number of inches by 12 to convert it to feet, add that decimal to the number of feet, and complete the rest of the calculation as described above to get the area in square feet. Always round up your total to the nearest foot when the area includes a decimal.

The area of a 10-by-10-foot wall would be 100 square feet (10 x 10).

The area of a 6-foot-9-inch by 11-foot floor would be 74.25 square feet (6.75 x 11), which rounds up to 75 square feet.

• For round areas, such as a floor, square the radius (half of the space's diameter) and multiply it by 3.14.

The area of a round floor with a diameter of 20 feet would be 314 square feet (3.14 x 10 x 10).

• For irregularly shaped areas, such as an L-shaped floor, view and treat the shape as two parts.Calculate the areas of the individual parts and add them together.

Let's say your L-shaped floor can be divided into two rectangles, each measuring 6-by-3 feet. The area of the floor would be 36 feet (6 x 3 x 2).

2. Find the number of tile boxes or individual tiles you need based on the area of the space.

Now that you know the area that the tile should cover, figure out how much tile to buy to cover that area. The calculation depends on whether you plan to buy boxes of tile that contain multiple tiles (more common for standard-sized walls or floors) or individual tiles (for small floors or walls, such as those in a half bath).

• When buying tile boxes, divide the area's square footage by the square footage listed on the box. The box will specify the total square footage that all the tiles in the box will cover. There's no need to factor in the size of the tiles. Round up to the nearest whole number if the figure is a decimal.

If the area was 100 square feet, and each box provides 12.5 square feet of tile, you need eight boxes of tile (100 / 12.5).

• When buying individual tiles, you need to learn the square footage (or fraction of) that each one covers. Tiles sold individually will note the dimensions of the tile in inches on the packaging. Multiply the tile length by the width to figure the area that one tile will cover in square inches. Divide the result by 144 to convert it to square feet. Then, divide the area you're tiling by the square footage of one tile to determine how many tiles you need. Again, round up to the nearest whole number.

If you choose six-by-six-inch tiles, each tile would cover 0.25 square feet (36 / 144). If the area of your wall or floor is 50 square feet, you would need 200 tiles at minimum to cover the area (50 / 0.25).

Photo: homedepot.com

3. Finally, factor in between 10 to 20 percent overage.

Even for a tiling expert, buying the bare minimum amount of tile needed to cover the wall or floor isn't going to cut it. Many scenarios warrant a little extra:

• You may need extra tiles to create tile fragments to fill in corners of the wall or floor where a full tile won't fit.
• Some of the tiles you buy may already be broken on arrival. (It's not uncommon for two to three percent of tiles sold in boxes to be broken or chipped!)
• You may snap a tile while cutting or laying one, or repairing one that has cracked.
• You may need a fresh tile to replace one that comes loose after install.
• Your tile may get discontinued down the road. If tile of the specific color or style you chose is later discontinued, you'll be relieved to have some matching tiles on hand to use as replacements; without them, you may have to retile the whole floor or wall or replace faulty tiles with tiles that don't match those already installed.

Buying at least 10 percent more tile than you calculated should cover you. Multiply the tile figure you calculated in the previous step by 1.1, and then round up if the figure is a decimal. So, if you figured you would need eight boxes of tile, buy nine boxes instead (8 x 1.1). If you calculated the need for 200 tiles, buy 220 instead (200 x 1.1).

Budget up to 20 percent of a buffer if you're attempting a more unique pattern like herringbone or a diagonal offset. Installing tile diagonally in these patterns (i.e., at a 45-degree angle from the base of the wall or floor) instead of horizontally (where the edge of the tile meets the edge of the floor or wall) generally leaves more tile fragments.

Madison Bathroom Vanity

Madison Bathroom Vanity

Choosing the perfect vanity for a master bathroom is a bit of a balancing act. Of course you want the vanity to look good, but even more important is finding one that works well. After all, having two sinks and plenty of storage is a must for keeping the peace in many relationships, and unfortunately many vanities that focus solely on style do so at the expense of functionality. The new Madison collection from James Martin Furniture strikes a perfect balance between form and function, with a design that's ideally suited for a master bathroom.

Madison 60″ Double Bathroom Vanity Cabinet in Cottage White 800-V60D-CWH from James Martin Furniture

Shop James Martin Bathroom Vanities:

First and foremost, the Madison collection is transitional in style, combining the simple, clean lines of a contemporary design with just enough embellishments to give the vanities a classic look and feel. Shaker style cabinets are particularly trendy right now, and these Madison vanities use an exaggerated version of this traditional cabinet door style, drawing attention to the angled joinings at the four corners of the cabinet doors. This gives the cabinet a slightly more decorative look and feel while keeping all the lines clean and simple.

Madison 72″ Double Bathroom Vanity Cabinet in Burnished Mahogany 800-V72-BNM from James Martin Furniture

This middle-of-the-line approach makes it possible to get a bathroom vanity that feels simple and casual enough for everyday use, but that has just enough elegance and refinement that it still feels sophisticated and can stand as the centerpiece of a master bathroom. Transitional vanities like those from the Madison collection simply feel more inviting: subtle details (like the beveled edges on the square door and drawer pulls that mimic the detailing on the cabinet doors) keep the vanity from looking too stark or plain, but do so without making it seem overly embellished.

Madison 60″ Single Bathroom Vanity Cabinet in Dove Gray 800-V60S-DVG from James Martin Furniture

Open shelf bathroom vanities have become popular lately for pretty much this exact same reason. Adding a little white space and lift to the vanity, even if the legs and feet are very simple, helps break up the boxy feel that many modern bathroom vanities can have. An open shelf design is often used in spa-style spaces to keep toiletries more visible and accessible, so this style is also great for evoking that really relaxed, laid-back atmosphere. The Madison vanities are also available in some of the most popular finishes for this style, including a soft dove gray that toes the line between casual and sophisticated.

Madison 60″ Double Bathroom Vanity Cabinet in Burnished Mahogany 800-V60D-BNM from James Martin Furniture

Of course, while having a lot of open space and lazily-filled storage baskets sounds great in theory, in practice this type of arrangement can end up looking and feeling more than a little messy. James Martin's Madison collection takes a unique approach to solving this problem by keeping the open shelf, but filling it completely with a fitted basket. The result is a look that's very similar to that casual "I just tossed it in a basket" style, but functionally works more like a drawer, keeping items fully hidden and tucked away.

Madison 72″ Double Bathroom Vanity Cabinet In Dove Gray Oak 800-V72-DVG from James Martin Furniture

In addition to the shelf-turned-drawers at the bottom of the vanity, the Madison double vanities also have two very large drawers in the center of the vanity for added storage. They're wider and deeper than normal drawers, which makes them ideal for keeping oft-used items organized and easily accessible. While normal sized drawers can only accommodate small items, these larger drawers are ideal for bigger toiletries, like hairspray or a hair drier. Because they're mounted on full extension drawer slides, you never have to worry about items getting lost in the back of the drawer: you can see everything inside all at once.

Madison 72″ Double Bathroom Vanity Cabinet In Cottage White 800-V72-CWH from James Martin Furniture

Having larger, wider drawers means having slightly smaller cabinets, but the Madison collection addresses this in a unique way, too. Instead of having the two sinks centered over the two cabinets, they're slightly offset so the plumbing doesn't take up the entire center of the cabinet. This helps maximize the amount of available storage space, so even though the cabinets are a bit narrower, they actually have more usable room on the inside. There's also a narrow shelf installed at the front of the cabinet that's perfect for storing small items that you want to access frequently, but that you don't want to leave out on your counter top, like toothpaste tubes or contact lens holders.

The Madison collection from James Martin Furniture offers not only a very trendy style, but also a variety of unique solutions to problems that commonly plague high end master bathroom vanities. Though the difference is visually subtle, it can make a big difference in the day to day usability of the vanity. But what do you think of this collection? Let me know in the comments below!

Photos to Inspire Your Bathroom Remodel

Photo Courtesy: Construction Photography/Avalon/Getty Images

Do you find yourself wishing for a bathroom remodel every time you look at those old cabinets that outdated wallpaper? Well, you're not alone. What you should know, however, is that you might not have to settle for the bathroom you currently have.

Whether your bathroom needs an entire overhaul or just a small tweak to a single feature that doesn't fit with the rest of the space, there are many ways to spruce up your bathroom. And not only can a remodel breathe new life into your bathroom, but it can also raise your home's value.

Marvelous Marble Bathroom

Nothing makes a bathroom look classier than marble countertops. At the same time, it can actually be cheaper than other kinds of stone countertop, and its durability and heat make it practical as well. The main concern with marble is that it can stain, but treating it with a sealer every few years can limit that risk. Considering the popularity of marble, this is a great way to improve home value.

Floor to Ceiling Tile

Decades of humidity can take their toll on a bathroom's walls, and if you're looking to remodel your bathroom, odds are good that you'll be looking to do some work on them. Floor to ceiling tile is one choice that can show some love for your walls and look good at the same time. It can be a bit pricey to do an entire bathroom in tile, but the upside is that it won't need replacing for a long time.

You can choose a single color for a more traditional look or go wild by mixing two or more kinds of tile together. Differences in tile can also be used to create differences in the various spaces of your bathroom, like in the picture above. Even if you like to keep things simple, tile still offers ways to inject a bit of creativity into your bathroom.

Tile to Stone Remodel

While tile is practical and versatile, if you want to take things up a notch, you can replace existing tile with stone. While it's expensive and also at risk for staining, stone is undeniably elegant and leaves a lasting impression on visitors. From thick slabs to faux masonry, there are many options to choose from.

For a cheaper and more durable alternative, you can also use quartz, which in this case refers to a synthetic material made from actual quartz and resin. It's sturdy, doesn't stain and has a similarly sleek and modern look.

Use Mirrors and Windows Strategically

Every bathroom is likely to have a mirror in it. However, if you're only using it to check on your appearance, you're not thinking big enough — and in more ways than one. Bathrooms are naturally some of the smallest rooms in the house, which can predictably make them feel cramped. By considering where the mirror can be seen from and what it reflects, though, you can open up the space without ever changing the floorplan.

Windows can also be used to make bathrooms seem bigger than they are. While no one is a fan of strangers being able to see them when they take a shower, translucent blinds or the right height or angle can grant privacy and natural lighting in equal measure.

From One Sink to Two

Sick of sharing a sink with your significant other? You might be tempted to get a second sink but worried that it will make your bathroom feel crowded or unbalanced. Done right, however, dual sinks can provide you with the toiletry autonomy you crave without making the space feel too busy. In fact, you can balance the remodeling of the rest of the room around the symmetry the two sinks provide. Just be sure not to overdo it — with added facilities, less will definitely be more.

Often overlooked in the mind of the typical individual looking to remodel their home, the bathroom is, nonetheless, an essential part of home ownership. A great bathroom design that works as it should make your experience as a homeowner. Conversely, a shoddy bathroom design can ruin your days with maddening consistency.

There are a few key considerations the first-time remodeler will need to pay attention to. These include costs, selecting the best design, and how to make sure you are setting up your remodeling for success. Following these strategies, you will be able to achieve a result you can live with and be happy about.

Selecting Your Best Bathroom Design

An important detail in the remodeling process is selecting your new bathroom design. You might have a professional come and take a look at your space first, or consider if any of these trendy designs would work for your bathroom:

• Classic white - This design banks heavily on clean white colors for everything. It's lasted so long because it works so well.
• Shiny silver surfaces and glass - This design looks modern and, done right, makes your bathroom always look brand new.
• Organic colors and materials - Having a bit of natural woods, stone and other palettes can give your bathroom a healthy-looking aesthetic.

How Much Does It Cost to Remodel a Bathroom

The good news when it comes to costs is that remodeling a small bathroom can be done on a tight budget. The typical small space can be renovated for under $8,000 or $10,000. Your actual costs will depend on your location and the size of your bathroom space that needs remodeling.

For example, a large, relatively expensive, city in California, such as San Francisco, might have higher remodeling costs than a lower cost city such as Dallas, TX.

Selecting Shower and Bathroom Fixtures

Bathroom fixtures such as toilet, sinks and shower, affect the functionality of your bathroom. You should therefore carefully consider different fixture combinations before making your selection. For this, you can visit a bathroom fixture showroom or shop near you and take a look at different model bathrooms.

You can also take your research online and look at different alternatives. It's best to select colors and materials that fit your aesthetic taste. You can take inspiration from celebrity bathroom designs on display online at Pinterest or Elle, among other publications. While you might not be able to splurge in the same way as some of these designs, you can get ideas for a design that pleases your eye.

Common Mistakes People Make in Bathroom Remodeling

Even though so many others have accomplished it successfully, the reality is that it is still easy to make big mistakes in bathroom remodeling. Common mistakes can end up costing you thousands in extra material and labor costs.

In some cases, you might have to tear down the work and start over from scratch. For a more successful bathroom remodeling experience, watch for and avoid these major mistakes:

• Moving fixtures around unnecessarily - A big expense item in bathroom remodeling is the moving of fixtures and plumbing. Those pipes and plumbing equipment cost thousands of dollars to move. If possible, leaving fixtures in place can save you a large amount of money.
• Poor ventilation - If there's an area of your house that needs good quantities of fresh air, apart from the kitchen, the bathroom ranks quite high. If your bathroom renovation expert is new to the job, they might give you a design that lets in too little fresh air and creates an unpleasant stale space.
• Underestimating costs - Especially if you are going with a high-end design, materials can end up gobbling a good deal of money. Before you settle for that fancy design you saw in the home remodeling mags, check if you can really afford what the design costs.
• Putting form over function - Above all, pay special attention to the plumbing and utility functions of the bathroom. Neglecting these will lead to a nice-looking space that does not do a great job at what it should be: an easy to use place for bathroom breaks and or showering.
