Yes, I count that as 2 PP too - yummy xxx

I think alcohol is a strange one. I love Blue WKD and have around 6 bottles on the occasional weekend but it never seems to make any difference to my weight loss and I still lose! Working out the points that would be 36!! I am certain they can't be as bad as 36 points of food! I hope...

Well done to everyone - losses for all! I lost 1/5 lbs this week xxx

Yes, I think I will use some of my weeklies - that is what they are there for after all! I am not that keen on McDonalds myself but it is my only option this time. Would rather have some KFC crispy strips any day. Oh well, did some zumba last night so hopefully that will balance it out a bit!

Many thanks to you both. I've found this link too - McDonald's Everything is so high! It may have to be a chicken and bacon salad for me.

Hi I have to go to McDonalds unexpectedly today and have left my eating out guide at home. Can anyone tell me the PP in anything with chicken in McDonalds? Perhaps the chicken burgers, subs and salads? Oh and chips if you know - just in case I can't resist! :p Thanks so much!

Hi guys I know there have been a few posts about this but can't seem to find the ProPoint values in sweet cinema popcorn. Can anyone help? Just a rough guide would be appreciated xxx

Hey guys Well done to you all for your losses. I lost 1lb this week xxx Congrats Claireanddanielson on your size 12 coat! That is brilliant! :)

Congratulations on your loss and have a wonderful holiday xxx :character00180:

Hi After all the worrying of putting on weight after having my wisdom tooth removed and not following my points properly I am delighted that I lost 0.5lb this week. I am now fully fixed and back on track for this week. Phew! :) xxx

I am pretty sure it is 1PP for a teaspoon so would it be double? 2PP seems quite a lot. It is hard without 1/2 points!

Bit of a nightmare week and a half for me. I had to have a wisdoom tooth surgically removed and it has been really painful. I've been drugged up on antibiotics and three types of painkiller which means I have been off work and left feeling quite sick. I did stick to my points to start with but...

Hi Lalta Great to hear from you and congrats on your losses so far and your latest 2lb xxx

Thanks so much LilMinx. Just reading the support from you on here has really cheered me up xxx

Thanks for taking the time to reply. My mouth is just starting to get back to normal and I've finished my antibiotics so am back counting the points as of yesterday. I guess all I can do is my best in this situation, weigh in on Monday and deal with whatever the scales say! Thanks again xxx

No weigh in for me today. Feeling too poorly after having wisdom tooth surgically removed on Friday night. Best of luck to everyone else and onwards and downwards for next week xxx

Congratulations! I'm really pleased for you and 3lb is excellent xxx :)

Hi Please try not to worry. I am sure you will have lost something and, if not, think of it as a week where you have got yourself prepared and know what foods you can and can't eat so you will do amazing next week. Let us know how you get on. xxx

Hi all I am feeling so fed up. I returned to WW a couple of weeks ago and lost 4.5lbs which I was delighted with. I stuck to my ProPoints all last week but had my wisdom tooth out on Friday. It was pretty nasty as it has to be removed surgically. The pain has been awful and I had lots of...

Hi I personally thinks it makes no difference as long as you stick to your weekly points allowance and it evens itself out over the weeks. I weigh in on a Monday and use my weeklies at the weekend and still lose weight. Plus I am sure they wouldn't hold classes on Mondays if it was the case...

Hi Littlemins I think the new plan is much better. I feel more full up and having the 49 weeky points is a god send. I use them at weekend for meals out or a takeaway and still lose weight each week. Best of luck! x

Hi To be honest I don't know how many ProPoints but would guess at 8? I am sure though that it is not going to mess up your weigh in. Have you used all your weekly allowance?

Yes, I am really not sure how you could only have eaten 7PP either. I use 4PP as my milk allowance for the day! Perhaps you could tell us what you had?

Love Belvita biscuits and at 6PP they are perfect if you are in a rush.

Please don't give up. I did that 8 weeks ago after losing over a stone. After much worrying and stressing I contacted my leader and she told me to come back and not to worry. I joined again last week, had put on 7lb but lost 4.5lb this week so now it is time to just get back on it. I can't...

Congrats! Keep up the great work xxx

Well, I'm back! I've not been on here for a couple of months or to weight watchers due to family problems. I decided to bite the bullet and return last week. I had put on 7lb unfortunately but am pleased to report that after my first week back I've lost 4.5lbs and am back on it 100%! I see...

Thanks to all of you for responding. :grouphugg: You've made me feel much better about it and I have stopped worrying now. bring on lots of delcious salad, veg and seafood.

Woo-hoo! Well done Lalta x :clap:

Congrats on your fantastic loss :) x

Thanks for your earlier message Pauline. You're right to tell me not to overly worry about holiday. Plus I am planning on lots of lovely swimming which should help. Congrats on your fantastic loss. 6lbs in 2 week is a great achievement! Keep up the good work :) x

1/2 lb for me this week. I am going to have a funny few weeks with WW. Next Monday I am going to a funeral so won't be able to weigh in. Then the following 2 weeks I am off on holiday to Corfu. :) As I am only allowed 2 weeks holiday (?!!!) - so annoying - I am going to weigh in on Thursday...

Hi all I am off to Corfu for 2 weeks next week. I've never been before and just wondered if you had any tips on how not to pile on the pounds when I am away? Don't get me wrong - I expect to put on a few but don't want to go mad! Thanks xxx

Have you used your weeklies? If not then you can use those to cover it off! Try not to worry though. My advice is always to face weigh in if you can else you begin imagining you have done far worse than you actually have! Good luck x

Good luck to both of you xxx

Sorry for laughing too but that is such a funny post! It's like something you would see on a sitcom! x

I would just like to say that I have always been a fan of WW and, in my opinion, ProPoints is an even better version. I have never been hugely overweight - always had around a stone to lose. The ProPoints plan is excellent. I can eat normal food and having the weeklies is brilliant as I like to...

Congrats - really pleased for you x

Wow! Congratulations, you must be over the moon! x

Keep going. Onwards and upwards for next week! :p

Wow - well done Pauline. Keep up the great work x

Hi guys I lost 1 1/2lbs this week making a total on 1 stone! So happy :D Hope you all do well at weigh in tonight xxx

Completely amazing! Such a wonderful story :) Thanks for posting x

Hi Millie The same thing happened to me last week. My husband and I went away to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary and I ate what I wanted. I put 2lb on but I weighed in this week after having a good week and lost 3lb - the 2lb I put on and 1lb extra. If you can stay on track this week I...

:) Hi Pauline Welcome to the board and all the very best. ProPoints does seem to be working well for me and I am sure it will for you too. Keep us all updated on how you get on xxx

Hi Lalta I am so sorry to hear you've had bad news. It is very difficult to keep on track when there are unhappy things going on in your personal life. I hope you start to feel happier soon. 1lb is a great loss and all you can do is your best. If you have a slip for a little while it doesn't...

Oh wow, that is specific :p You'll lose it next week - 1/2lb or 1.2lb

Thank you. Your 1/2lb will definitely come off next week. Just keep on track again and I bet you will have a big loss as you will have had 2 really good weeks x :)

Hi guys I lost 3lb this week! I am so happy as that is the 2lb off that I put on and one extra. Hope you all did well x

Congratulations Leelea! :)

Hi Charies Like you I have put on weight last week - 2lb. I knew I would as I went away to London for my 1st wedding anniversary and went out for meals and lunches. I am hoping to get the 2lb back off tonight and then onwards and upwards. I have also been feeling a little demotivated lately...

Ha ha - I know! It is bad. I ate it veeeeerrry slowly. Once upon a time my husband and I woulh have shared a large pizza with lots of toppings, perhaps a starter of nachos and a garlic bread on the side. But I guess that is one of the reasons I am on WW! Lol :p

Hi I wanted to jump in as I went to Pizza Hut recently and had an individual Margherita which I worked out to be 20 points. I used 10 of my dailies towards it and 10 from my weeklies and still lost 2lb that week. You coud try working the PP out from this...

Hi LikeASweetShop Good to know I am not the only one :p I am only 4lb away from being at the top of my healthy weight range but would ideally like to lose another 12lb. How about you?

Best of luck Auralay! You sound really determined so I am sure you will do a great job x

I just love eating and going out for meals and having takeaways. Once I get to gold I am going to keep going a minimum of once a fortnight - it is the only way I will avoid putting it back on!

That is amazing! Congratulations - I am so happy for you!!

Thanks Lalta - that's really kind. I am just going to keep going and have resigned myself to the fact that I will always need to keep an eye on my weight as I just love food too much :p

Hi guys I hope you are all having a lovely sunny bank holiday. I weighed in tonight and lost another 1 1/2lbs so am over the moon! Good luck to you all for your WI. xxx

Well done littlechattart - that is great. You are doing so well!

Well done, that is great! :D Glad the messages help - we'll all get through it together!

Sorry to hear that Gems but, like I said to Lalta, well done on going. It has been a tough week what with the Bank Hols and Easter. You've done so well so far. Onwards and upwards for next week :p xxx

Thanks Lalta. Best of luck for your weigh in today. Lots of people didn't go to my class last night so well done for going and facing the weigh in whatever happens!

Hi all Another 1lb off for me this week. I'm really pleased as had 2 meals out, a buffet and Easter to contend with! Good luck to all those weighing in and for next week x

Well done, that is great. Fingers crossed for even more next week with all your zumba on top of the healthy eating! x

Wow, congratulations on another 2lb off! You are doing so well x :)

Hey guys I lost 1lb tonight - am so pleased as was a bit nervous! xxx

Yes, good luck all! I am feeling less confident this week as it is my TOTM and I never lose! I'll just hope for a STS and will let you know soon...

I am a little worried about it too - not because I want to eat loads but I hate feeling like the odd one out and don't want people to keep asking me why I am not eating chocolate as it just draws attention to me dieting! So, I've asked for little bits that I can fit into a day easily such as...

That is fantastic yummymummy. You must be so proud of yourself. Well done, you are an inspiration! :)

A curvy size 12!

Thanks both, am really happy with that. Here's to more weight loss next week. Have a good week :) x

I lost 1 1/2 pounds.

Woo-hoo! Excellent result. Keep up the good work x

Well done to both of you - they are great losses. I weigh in at 5.30pm so will let you know how it goes. x

Congratulations! You must be so thrilled. Keep up the excellent work!

I like a fry up as it feels naughty. I usually have 4 bacon medallions, 1 egg, 1 Quorn Sausage, tons of mushrooms and tins of tomatoes, ketchup and bread to mop it up ;). Usually ends up around 9 - 10 points!

Hi Starsy I was a little worried about the new ProPoints system as I know it points you towards eating more protein than carbs which I am not that keen on. However, I've upped my protein a bit but still have carbs for breakfast, carbs for lunch in the shape of bread and also some for dinner as...

Hi Starsy Myself and my husband spend around £45 a week and that includes all meals/snacks/lunches (I take my own to work). We shop in Sainsburys which is not the cheapest but a much nicer shopping experience! :)

Well done! 2lb is great - you should be over the moon! I lost 1/2lb but happy with that as only have a stone to lose so knew it would get a bit slow. Keep up the great work! x :)

Hi! Congrats. I knew you would do well this week! It always happens like that. I lost 1/2lb but am pleased with that as it was a tough weekend. Onwards and upwards for next week! x :)

Yes, good luck everyone. I had a tough weekend as had a 40th party Fri, meal out Sat and Mother's Day buffet on Sun to contend with. I did my very best and managed to not eat all of my weeklies so we shall see what happens. Will be happy to STS after big loss last week. I'll update you this...

3.5lbs is a great loss - 1/4 stone in one week! I bet you lose fairly big next week too where as mine will STS or be about 1/2lb off. Hope you are not feeling disheartened!

Hi I don't know for sure but would guess at having either of these: Penne Arrabiata (V) £8.50 Pasta Tubes with tomato chilli and basil Penne Ai Filetti di Polo £9.95 Tube shaped pasta with diced chicken in tomato, olive oil and Zucchini (Courgette) Having looked at Italian before in the...

Hi Can anyone tell me how many ProPoints there are in a shot of Archers and Southern Comfort? I have a party this weekend and usually drink Blue WKD but think that is really high! :p

Congrats littlechattart. 10% is amazing but 20lb in 10 weeks?!! That is brilliant. I have 10 weeks until I go on holiday so if I can achieve 1/2 of what you have and shed 10lbs I would be over the moon. Well done! :)

Thanks LikeASweetShop and congrats on your loss. You have done amazingly - 16lb is so impressive! :)

Hey Lalta Congratulations! I have just got back from weigh in and lost 6lbs. I am really pleased too. :D

Hi selkie76 Of course you can join - it will be really nice to have some more people that weigh in on Monday nights as I don't think there are many of us. Totally agree about getting your head around the new points but am getting there now - well we'll see tomorrow night when I get on the...

Hi Charies22 Yes, so far so good. I spent the whole first night working out the ProPoints in the differents foods I eat so I can keep a list on my fridge so I can just check that rather than forgetting and working out again. I am sure it will work though as I am definitely eating less carbs on...

Hi Charies22 I am new as well so it will be good to have someone who has started around the same time as me. Is it your first weigh in on Monday? How are you finding it? I am used to the old WW so it is taking me a while to get my head round the new points values but am getting the hang of...

Hi guys If it ok I would like to join you. I weigh in on Monday's and am on my first week this week so am just getting used to working out the ProPoints as I used to do the old plan. You have all done such a great job so far - only hope I can follow your lead! I have approx 1 1/2 stone to lose...

Thanks! Sorry you've not had a brilliant week. Your weight loss so far though is excellent - 8.5lb in 2 weeks!! I would be so over the moon with that :) You lucky thing - I love Enrique. I am sure you will be straight back on it next week.

Thanks BB. I loved the old WW and noticed you were carrying on with that. I don't blame you as why change if it is working. I got married last May and did the old WW myself and got down to my ideal weight. A year on I have put about a stone back on so want to get it shifted. I am not too hard on...

Thanks Elaine and congrats on your success so far!

Newbie Hi all I am new here and starting WW tonight. I lost around 3 stone on the old WW plan a few years ago but would like to lose another stone if possible. I have tried to do the old plan on my own but can't stick to it without a weekly weigh in so have decided to try the new Pro Points...
