Going back to the old UK "Discover" plan

[bpa-ww]

I lost 40 lbs. on the old UK points system, which I believe was called Discover.

I want to do it again. But I cannot remember how to calculate my daily Discover Points allowance.

I'm a 44 year old man who weighs 175 lbs. Can anyone tell me what's my allowance - and how to calculate it?

Thanks

Hi there was a page on how to calculate your daily allowance so I have pasted it on this thread good luck!

The points you get depends on a number of things:


Are you:
Female = Score 3
Male = Score 9

Are you a breastfeeding mother?
No = Score 0
Yes, breastfeeding exclusively = Score 10
Yes, supplementing breastfeeding with solid foods = Score 5

How old are you?
16 - 20 = Score 5
21 - 35 = Score 4
36 - 50 = Score 3
51 - 65 = Score 2
Over 65 = Score 1

How many stones do you weigh?
Ignore the lb, the number of stones is your score for this question. Someone who weights 12st 4lb will score 12

How tall are you?
Under 5ft 4ins = Score 1
5ft 4ins or above = Score 2

In your day to day life are you:
Sitting down most of the time = Score 0
Occasionally sitting, but mainly standing = Score 2
Walking most of the time = Score 4
Doing physically hard work most of the time = Score 6


Add all the sections together and thats your daily allowance.
