how to claculate your points.

male - 8 pts
female - 2 pts

age:
17-26 - 4 pts
27-37 - 3 pts
38-47 - 2 pts
48-58 - 1 pt
over 58 - 0 pts

use the first 2 digits of your weight - for example - if you weigh 175 then use 17 pts

if you spend most of your day:
sitting down - 0 pts
occasionaly sitting but mostly standing - 1 pt
walking most of the time - 2 pts
doing physical work most of the time - 3 pts

add all your numbers up and you get your daily points allowance! :)

you also get an additional 35 points to use through out the week however you want - you can use them all at once or spread them out over the week :)

BUT this would mean that i get 20 points per day and if i spread out the additional 35 points over the week, i get 25 per day.. in short, i'm sticking to my 21 points per day and if i go over, then i do, but i'll make sure now to go over the 20 points per day by 35 points in total per week.

  2. Lol, I clearly didn't notice "claculate" but funnily enough, I used to say claculate when I was little :p

    Teg's, I have an app and I put in the kj's and saturated fat per serving and it tells me how many servings.. Just have to be careful with "propoints", they're the new way of working things out and you just halve them to get the points I use. Fruit and veggies are 0 points so it's only things like alcohol and eggs and meat that you need to google. :)

  3. kyrie... i'm confused... you say to use the first 2 digits of your weight... is that meant to be height??
    Coz if someone weighs 175kg, i'd say they need more than the points diet..
