your SmartPoints Budget
SmartPoints® values are numbers we assign to foods to help make deciding what to eat simpler. We take complex nutrition and distill it down to one easy to understand number: the SmartPoints value.
1. How do calories relate to SmartPoints?
Every food and drink has a SmartPoints value. Calories give it the baseline; saturated fat and sugar drive the SmartPoints value up, while protein drives it down. The reason for this is that numerous studies have confirmed the benefits of eating less sugar and saturated fat, and more protein—not just for weight loss, but all sorts of other healthy reasons.

2. High SmartPoints doesn’t mean a food is “bad.” (Because no food is bad!)
It just means that we need to balance it with lower-SmartPoints foods.
3. How many SmartPoints do I get?

5. Can I save SmartPoints that Idon't use?
Yes, you can! Up to 4 dailySmartPointsyou don't use will automatically roll over into your bank of weekly SmartPoints. (We call these "rollovers." Easy to remember!)
You'll keep track of your SmartPoints as you use them—the fastest and easiest way is with the WeightWatchers® app.

6. How do weekly SmartPointswork?
Your weekly SmartPoints are there for you whenyou need them, like a parachute or a really awesome dog.You can use them bit by bit, all at once, or not at all. It’s totally up to you. But you can’t carry them over to the next week, so use them or lose them!
7. What are ZeroPoint foods?
They are a large amount of foods that you don't have to track or measure!
Every plan has a balance of SmartPoints and ZeroPoint foods, to match with different styles of eating. ZeroPoint foods are foods that were specifically chosen by our Nutrition team because they form the foundation of a healthy pattern of eating. (Find out more about ZeroPoint foods here.) The plans with the largest SmartPoints Budget has the fewest ZeroPoint foods, and the plan with the smallest SmartPoints Budget has the most ZeroPoint foods. It's all about keeping things flexible and livable.
