Can anyone tell me the new formula for seeing how many points you have?
I know it was on here a while back, but I wouldn't even know how to search for it accurately.
Thanks!

Re: Can anyone tell me the new formula for seeing how many points you have?
this is from poster mikeswife. I copied it for you.
The following are the questions that you use/answer to determine your daily point allowance:
1. Are you:
Female = 2 pts
Male = 8 pts
A Nursing Mom = 12 pts
2. How old are you:
17-26 = 4 pts
27-37 = 3 pts
38-47 = 2 pts
48-58 = 1 pt
Over 58 = 0 pts
3. What do you weigh?
Enter the first 2 digits of your weight in pounds
4. How tall are you?
Under 5'1" = 0 pts
5'1" - 5'10" = 1 pt
Over 5'10" = 2 pts
5. Do you spend most of you day:
(a) Sitting down = 0 pts
(b) Occasionally sitting, but mostly standing (teacher, sales person) = 2 pt
(c) Walking most of the time (waiter, mailman) = 4 pts
(d) Doing physically hard work most of the time (construction, nurse, gardener) = 6 pts
Add up your score and that is the number of points you get for the day.
As you lose weight, your number will decrease because of question # 3.
The minimum number of points you are allowed to have is 18 and the max is 44. So if you add your score and it is 17, make it now 18.

I have 22pts per day and the first 2 weeks were the hardest for me. I am on week three and lost 4lbs so far.
Once I realized not to use my own balsamic dressing with oive oil I had a whole extra meal in points basically and it really helped me drop the weight. I have to say my biggest problem was getting used to eat.
I know you can do it.

That's 19 points a day PLUS your extra 35 points a week. If you exercise you can also use activity points on top of that.
If you make every point count it's really not too bad. If you are spending all your points on things that won't sustain you it would definitely be hard to keep up.
Once you are maintaining you get to add points back as well!
