Project Me -Journal To SuccessWW WINNING POINTS At HOME...
Notes to myself taken from webpage miami.org
In a nutshell, you use the points formula to assign points to everything you eat based on calories, fat and fiber. You can use a little slide rule they provide to calculate points from the packages on foods or you can use a calculator they sell. If you want to be different you can calculate points with the formula or calculator on this site (or other sites). You get a certain number of points per day. If you don't use points you can expend them later, they call this banking. It is a simpler but more sophisticated form of calorie counting, which teaches good eating habits. They also encourage some milk each day and lots of glasses of water. The system forces you to eat more veggies, soups, low fat foods, and more fiber.

POUNDS POINTS/day
Under150 18-25
150 - 174 20-27
175-199 22-29
200-224 24-31
225-250 26-33
Over 250 28-35
The table is provided to remind you of the WW recommended minimum and maximum recommended points per day: I think that WW recommends you aim for the average and 'bank' any points not eaten under the average. Banking points is their word for saving them up and using them later to increase the points allowed on a later day. The table at the right shows YOUR CURRENT WEIGHT and how many points you should eat per day. As you lose weight your points per day goes down.
