Hi Rambo,

Here is the new formula for calculating points in the new program (taken from Wikipedia):
In November 2010, WeightWatchers announced that it's Points system was being replaced by a new PointsPlus system. The old system was based on a calculation based on Calories and Fat content. The new PointsPlus system is based on Protein, Carbohydrates, Fat and Fiber content.



where pp is the PointsPlus value, p is the amount of protein, c is the amount of carbohydrates, fa is the amount of total fat and fi is the amount of fiber, all in grams. This formula is an empirical match to the WeightWatchers calculators and may not be exact.
