Help with PP allowance please?
Hi
I'm just starting back with ww after losing 2 stone with Lipotrim. I've dabbled a bit with low carbing but floundered a bit because I couldn't work out the carbs of everything lol
So here I am back to my old faithful ww. I like the sound of ProPoints because it encourages you to eat more protein & I have really found since low carbing that the protein really does make you feel full, I've got a new attitude and won't be saving any points for chocolate or crisps like I have in the past but using my points on "proper" food lol
Anyway... I have joined ww online and started yesterday. I'm trying to find out how many points my hubby should be on? He's 33, 17st 12lbs and is 5' 11" can anyone help please?
Thanks in advance

Hi there
You'd be on a total of 40 points a day to begin with - this will obviously change as you lose weight but it's a start at least!
Hope this helps,

According to the calculator linked on the previous page (which I can't vouch for 100%, but it is working for me!) you should be on 29PP daily + your 49PP weekly.
As above, according to the calculator you should be on 35PP daily + 49PP weeklies. You will then drop to 34PP daily when you hit 14st. 1lb. Good luck!

Hey there. You'd be on 29PP a day with your 49PP weekly.
I'm finding them great so far, although this is only my second week. They make feel like you have a lot more freedom than you had with Discovery, as you can splurge if/when you need to and not feel like you've ruined your diet. Also you can treat yourself to your favourite chocolate bar, alcohol or a take-away and still lose weight! It's like Discovery, but with a safety net. The only downside is that carbs are pointed a lot higher than they used to be to try and discourage you from eating too many of them, but then I was a carb addict, so maybe this wouldn't be a problem for you! Good luck with whatever you decide to try.

I was originally on 34PP a day and just dropped to 33PP (I think you drop a daily point every 4/5 lbs or so until you hit 29PP) and although it seemed like a lot in the beginning, it's really not a lot carbs-wise, but does encourage you to fill up on fruit & veggies! I've never done SW, but I've heard it is hard to judge portion size and a lot of people seem to reach a plateau because they're not sure what they're allowed to be eating! With WW the 49 weekly points are just bliss, though!

Phew, there's no way on earth I could stick to anything without food! lol. I'm sure you'll do great! Good luck!thanks for that
Hi newstarter, unfortunately the calculator also states that's your allowance is 29 daily +49 weekly. Perhaps you are a different age or height than your friend? I find 2 or 3 points don't really make much of a difference on the PP plan, so chin up & good luck!

Thanks ErinW - its good to know - yes she is 10 years older and much slimmer!
I don't think I could manage more than 29 pp - I struggle to use them up - probably because I love my fruit so munch on fruit or carrot / cucumber sticks when I get peckish! I have definitely started eating healthier since being on the plan!
