I have indeed Kals and (drum role) I report ........a big fat.....STS!!
I really didn't expect the miracle of a loss but I shall remain optimistic until Monday, when I will have been following the PPs for a full week. Having read that some of the PPs calculations on the WW online tracker are wrong, I'm a bit worried
Is it worth buying a calculator do you think?I don't suppose you know how well you have done as you haven't been WI have you? I do hope you do better than me!
Enjoy the rest of your day Kals.

I have brought the pack with the calc in it Lesley as I find keep having to go online and checking the propoints is a pain in the jacksy.
I stepped on this scales at Tesco this morning but as I haven't been on them for weeks, lets just say all the faffing around has resulted in a big fat zero for me but now i've weighed and i'm giving it 100% from now

I'm sure there's some of the new calcs on eBay by now, I think I read that hey are going for £10, brand new, which is not bad really considering I paid £8 for old points one 2 years ago. If I was doing it, personally, I would get one, I never really trusted the online pointing when I was signed up before. It told me 12 points for a teaspoon of olive oil once! Erm... Bye bye WW online!
Have a lovely weekend L. xxx
Hi Nik - I had a quick look on ebay but they are selling for more than on WW at the moment! I assume it's because they are new. I will have to look into getting one from WW I think as you are right, there are a lot of discrepancies on the WW site. It's bad really isn't it!
Been busy all weekend so will have to have a catch up this evening! Hope you had a good weekend.

Did you weigh in officially this morning? Oh please do tell
Ha ha Nik - sorry to disappoint but I didn't! My belly was terrible last night and I was up at 4am taking prescription strength painkillers which then made me so dozey I slept through my alarm for 20 minutes - (Dynamite by Taio Cruz on max volume on phone alarm so must have been comatosed) - was in such a flap I couldn't bare the thought of the scales! Still made it into work for 7.30 so all good. Maybe WI tomorrow
. Also, didn't the WW tracker used to remind you to WI? I thought it did, but when I went on to update food day, it didn't flash up a reminder to update weight etc.Hope you have had a nice day, mines been a bit sh*te. Hope you're not missing O.F. too much
.Have a great week Nik.

Sorry Kals, I thought I had replied to this! Hope you are well. Been a bit busy and haven't caught up properly.
Is the calculator in this pack the cardboard one or an electronic one? I'm getting really hacked off with the online tracker - the points don't seem to be right, for example some ham I looked up was down as being 0 ProPoints - that can't be right as the generic ham was 1 ProPoint!
Kals, I just know that once you follow the plan 100% you will have a great stonking loss and put me to shame yet again
. No point worrying about what you haven't lost over the past month or so - you just had a little diet holiday and now you are back you will be just fine.I've had a quick look at some of the WI results for the first week of ProPointing - some of them are looking really good. I'm really pleased for everybody but for some silly, strange reason feel like this has put real pressure on me to get some better results
.Hope your first week following PP properly goes brilliantly Kals.
EDIT - Just read you are changing to Harcombe - ignore the above and good luck with Harcombe. You will do brilliantly, it suited you before, you were happy with it and you had good losses so go for it!

Hope you are feeling a bit better tonight El
Regarding the online WW thing - I found semi skimmed milk at 0 points...... Oh how I rejoiced.... :| B*****ds!!!! haha
Ha ha Jen - I must switch from skimmed to semi skimmed then
. So annoying isn't it - at least I have something to blame my failure on now though.Lesley

No it's not good enough Nik, I think I am going to cancel my membership to be honest. I like the new plan don't think it is worth the money while it is so inaccurate. Best do it quick before I get charged! Back to square one I think
. Any ideas welcome.Hope you are having a great evening.

Update: Have just cancelled membership so hopefully wont get charged anything now!
