Prioritize nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains, and limit highly processed foods and added sugars. Use Zero-Point Foods: WW assigns a points value to most foods, but there are also a number of “zero-point” foods that you can eat freely.

Most regimented diet programs, like Weight Watchers, are similarly based on a 1,200 caloric intake, just hidden behind a “point” system so it doesn't feel like calorie counting.

That's right – you can eat as much as you want and not track a point! Weight Watchers purposefully makes a ton of foods zero points – and for good reason: it's fruits and vegetables! Specifically non-starchy vegetables.

To keep the menu under control, keep some basics in mind: low fat, high fiber. Grilled, broiled, baked or sautéed chicken and fish, turkey sandwiches on wheat minus the mayo, vegetable omelets, salads with just a touch of dressing — all receive a PointsPlus™ value stamp of approval.

Although the WeightWatchers Point system emphasizes whole, unprocessed foods, including vegetables, fruits, and lean proteins, no foods are off-limits. While healthy choices are encouraged, members can choose any foods they want, as long as they stay under their daily Points allotment.
