Free Weight Loss Tools

Smart Points Calculator

This weight loss tool is specific to counting SmartPoints. To get the proper values, you must have all the nutritional information in the calculator. These are calories, saturated fats, sugar and protein. If you are now on the Freestyle plan, remember there are over 200 foods that are zero points and don't require you to calculate the value. Check out the full list here.

FreeStyle Points Tracker

You can download this spreadsheet and track your SmartPoints offline. This tools is designed specifically for the FreeStyle plan. The formulas are designed to track your daily and weekly allowance. You can even plug in your FitPoints earned. What makes this a freestyle tracker is that it will automatically roll over unused points (up to 4 only) each day adding to your weekly allowance available.

Points Plus Calculator

If you are still using the Plus plan, then this is the online calculator for you. With this one you will need to know the total fat, carbohydrates, fiber and protein. Like with the original plan, if you don't have fiber information just plug in zero. All the others are required.

You don't have to calculate points plus values for these zero point plus foods.

Activity Points Calculator

This weight loss tool calculates the number of points you earned for your workout. This works with both the points plan and the original plan. Unfortunately this does not work for the FreeStyle SmartPoints plan.

If you are free styling your weight loss, then you will have to use the WW website online tools, sync your fitbit (or similar tool) or get the information from your Weight Watchers leader. The FitPoints is the name used for your activity on this plan and is personalized for you, so there is no standard calculation.

Points Tracker

If you have not switched to the freestyle plan, then this tracker will work for you. It also tracks for the Plus plan and the original plan. Just plug in your numbers (daily and weekly allowance) and add your foods and the formulas will make the changes to your points used. If you have switched to the FreeStyle plan but don't want to use any roll-over points, then this weight loss tool will work for you as it won't do the roll over.

Daily Pts Plus Allowance Calculator

This online calculator is only for the Points Plus plan. This will tell you the daily allowance you get based on gender, age, weight and height. If you have moved on to the SmartPoinst plan, then you know the daily allowance is individualized and you can only get this number from Weight Watchers (online or from your leader).

WW Original Points Calculator

This calculator is for the original Weight Watchers plan only. It uses Calories, Total Fat and Fiber to find the values. If you don't have fiber information, just use zero. This will give you a close approximation. You must have the other two nutrients to the points.

WW Original Allowance

This is not a tool but rather an article that will guide you to figure out your allowance for the original Weight Watchers program. You will get so many points for gender, age, height, weight and activity level. Just add up all the points for each of those and you will have your daily allowance. The weekly allowance on this plan was a standard 35 points for everyone.
