WP Points Range - where do you stay?

[Guest guest]

I eat every point available. Target+Activity(around 28 per week)+Flex. I

never eat below 24 points (my target is 20). I try to look at this as a

lifestyle change and I don't want to starve for life! I think the more food

you

can train your body to lose on, the more you're going to be able to eat to

maintain. Plus, you won't be cranky! LOL

Points.

Where in you range do you typically shoot for? Or are you all over? (Do

those on the Flex plan actually use most or all of their Flex Points?)

I've been shooting for the bottom of my range, almost feeling as if I'd be

cheating if I used all my points. But I'm having a hard time with hunger

and headaches and a weight loss plateau, that I'm thinking of shifting my

gears to stick more to the higher end.

A related question - do you generally eat your Activity Points? (above and

beyond you range?) I have not been eating them, again I feel like I'm

cheating when I do. LOL

Thanks for any feedback!

I'm in no way " experienced " and I sometimes wonder if Winning Points wouldn't be

more successful, but we'll see!

I am currently doing Flex and find that I am all over the map on the points per

day - I stick with the 22 Target points and if/when I need the extra I'll dip

into that. I think that's pretty good since it seems to keep my body on it's

toes and I don't reach a plateau. I avoid the Activity Points - I earn them

when I can but I don't plan on eating those points. For some reason I don't

loose when I do that.

Good luck!

I'm not sure if I replied to this one. I'm on several ww yahoo groups.

I have used my weekly points in different ways. It depends on the week.

usually I try to save most of my weekly points for the end of the week since I

have chinese delivery once a week at the end of the week and it just gives me

more room with that.

But this week I decided to try something different and I think if it works for

me via success on the ole wgh in on monday, I will prob. start using my weekly

points this way:

what I did was divide the points by 7 (days), which gives me 5 points a day,

then I add that to my daily point range which is 22, giving me daily 27 points

to work with. So far it's really worked well for me and monday I'll see if it

helped me with the wgh in.

I use the food calculator so what I do is just set my daily points to 27, then I

just delete the weeklypoints that shows in the corner so I only have daily

points to use, this way I don't have to worry I will make some era in point

tracking since in the corner where the weekly points are is now 0.0 and daily

points start at 27 each day.

the program is designed for you to be able to eat all your points, daily and

weekly and still lose wght so most likely you are just not getting what you need

if you are trying to eat less points daily...instead of thinking lower end or

higher end, think of what you choose to eat for each meal, use your points

needed for that and don't think of it as high or low numbers ...think food,

nutritional food, food preparation, food presentation, not deprivation but

moderation:-) is the key.

I'll leave that question to someone else as I don't bother with activity points,

whether I get activity or not I will just be using the food points part of the

program and that's just me so others may be able to give you their thoughts on

the activity points part of the program.
