hi, i wonder if anybody can help me with this one. how many points would i have to eat if i wanted to maintain weight after CD? I'm 5'7 and will probably get down to 10st by the end of the re-feed.
I wanted to do a bit of weight watchers right after CD so that I don't get fat again

Weight watchers kinda say you have to lose 5lbs with them, so I'm not sure what the rules are with maintaining.
I left CD when I had a stone to go.

Jennikay is right in so much that, if you wanted to go to WW classes, you would need to be at least 5lbs overweight first.

If you want to do WW without classes, that doesn't matter of course.

To work out your points, answer the questions on the thread here

http://www.minimins.com/weight-watchers/20665-working-out-how-many-points-youre-allowed-day.html

Then add another 6 points for maintaining.

I had a piece of pizza this lunchtime (pepperoni). 1 8th of a large one (14" i suppose). I am not a big pizza fan and only ate it because there was nothing else for lunch but I have no idea how to point it. I guessed 6 but not sure if that is anywhere near right? Anyone else into their pizzas?

Thanks

It was chicago town take away pizza. I just hunted for the box to work it out but DH has thrown it and I am not desperate enough to search the bin lol!

 

[Karenlou]

chicago town pepperoni pizza is 13.5 points for a 200g serving

 

[lea8198]

OMG! I have no idea how many grams I had? Thanks Anyway Karen. I guess i better find out how many grams the whole pizza is and divide by 8 ://// oops!

 

[Karenlou]

pizza is evil and full of fat! sadly it is tempting and yummy as well

 

[Starlight]

Anyone (Karenlou ) know how many points in a plain panini. I know how much the filling works out at, just not the bread

 

[Karenlou]

The best I can find is 1.5 points per 30g which would make it the same as any other bread (makes sense I guess).

Can you tell I'm a bit bored this evening?

 

[lea8198]

Right, I am in panic mode! I had a crazy weekend last weekend with the birthdays and christening and now I just realised that I have anight out with the girls on saturday too! I am already expecting a STS or a gain on Monday but at least I had all this week to limit the damage. Now I have this meal on Saturday and I am petrified it is going to undo my good work. Whilst a lb gain would not kill me more than that would!

So the place we go to have a very limited meal selection. Could anyone give me some advice on rough points :/

Starter (which i will skip if everyone else does):
Melon with sugar:
Melon without sugar:

Main:
Small- quarter of chicken in the rough (skin) with small chips
Normal - half a chicken in the rough (skin) with normal chips

Desert - I am hoping I will be too full but what would be the best option?
Icecream? Banana split? Definitely not the mississippi mud pie which I would normally have. oopps

I hate the run up to Christmas......

Help :help2:

 

[lea8198]

Ok, here is the menu:
Cornish Meadery - Menu

What about drinks? I am normally a wine person and I can limit it to two but would it be better on something else? Probably not my normal tipple of Baileys lol

I am doomed aren't I? hehehe

 

[IreneH]

I know I went to the Toby Carvery and had ice cream. It was nothing fancy and was 7 points.
Is there an alternative to chips? Jacket potato or salad?

[IreneH]

Menu looks lovely. What about the chicken with salad? Or prawn salad but it might come with the marie rose sauce. Can you not have something like diet coke and save points?

[blackwidow]

tia maria and diet coke is nice for 1pt per single?

 

[CCPM]

Urgent

Can someone please tell me the points for kingsmill 50/50 crustless as I'm about to eat the loaf

[IreneH]

I think there are 2 different size loaves. I use the smaller one and it is 1/2 point a slice
