The daily points allowed on Weight Watchers vary according to sex,weight, height and activity level. A woman who weighs under 150 pound would be allowed between 18 and 23 points, according to Watcherspoints.com, whereas a man who weighs 300 pounds would get around 35 points a day. Keep Learning.
If you are between 17-26 add 4 points to your weight watchers point total. If you are between 27-37 add 3 points; 38-47 add 2; 48-57 add 1; and over 58 add 0. This is because your metabolism slows as you get older so when you calculate how many weight watchers points you get. Ex. I am 27 years old so I add 3 which gives me a total of 5 points.
