Can this be right? A 3-digit-weight person weighing 220 pounds would add TWENTY-TWO points?
It's in kilograms, as this blog is about the australian version of weight watchers. a 220 pound person = 99.8 kilograms
my score came to 19, does this mean I round down to 18 or leave at 19?
Where is your WW points calculator? I can't see it anywhere on the page...
How many points extra do I give myself when breast feeding???
for breastfeeding I think you add an extra 10 points per day. It depends on how much you are breastfeeding. If you are your childs only source of nutrition, the points are higher. If you are only feeding part of the time, the points are lower. 10 is in the middle...that is what I use. regards
I wanted to use the points plan whilst pregnant - NOT to loose weight but to maintain it and make sure I am sticking to a healthy eating plan.. my biggest weakness is portion size... should I be sticking to my normal points + 5? At the moment it is not really relevant.. I am so nauseous that I eat very little
Hi there, my points quiz says 6 points for physical exercise all day long... as a work type.. you only have 3? Why is this?? Thanks
It has not been updated since the Changes in Jan 2007. This quiz is not up to date.
thank you this is very helpfull
I am immobile. I walk very slowly with the aid of a walking frame and very minimal distances and spend a lot of my time bedridden. My points calculate 22 but surely I need to take points off for not moving normally. Can anyone help me with this please??
I have a friend who did very little exercise on this program, and still lost weight. I'm sure it can be done. I'm no expert, but I believe that if you carefully stuck to the points (and didn't cheat yourself!) then you would definitely lose weight. It may be slower than others, but it would still happen. Then you reduce your points intake as your weight reduces. It works - I've lost 13kg so far :)
hey great table, thanks
This also does not allow for women who are breastfeeding, as they burn off extra calories with their milk going to baby.
Hi,
Just wondering if this calculation is still applicable? I know that weight watchers points have gone though some changes over the years?
thanks
Yes it is still applicable as it is the same quiz they use in the meetings
How excactly does this work? Can someone please explain!

so glad to find this. it's hard to get hold of the old points calculators these days and it works great for me. thanks
I have come back to trying the points plan after 4 years away from weight watchers. According to my old books I should be on 36 points per day after answering the quiz but this site says 28. Which one should I go by?
I'm not sure how accurate this is, my weight watchers app says 32 points, but this said 21! Maybe it's calculated with the old points system?
Thanks for sharing Australian Immigration Consultancy
