Thank you again, really helped me work out my sarny for dinner, the beef is hard, its a pack of 5 large slices so if i did 1 point a slice do you think im covered ???
Also are tomato's cucumber, lettice and onion all nil points ??

Thanks again, it is really hard and your help has sorted me for today, i must remember to buy the calculator.

Weight Watchers Points Calculator


thats the online ww calculator can help if ur online and want to check urself x

 

[jennalou0802]

Yes hun that sounds about right for the beef and they are all nil as far as i know enjoy ur sarny !

The beef slices are 2.5pts per slice. If the sat fat is missing use a rule of thumb of half the fat content.

 

[jennalou0802]

ooh right i never knew will write that down x

Thanks Jenna...OMG 2.5p for 1 slice of beef Im not eating Beef again :cry:

Will go take a look at the online calculator now Thanks all xxx

Hi Guys

Noticed you were trying to work something out with no sat fat, the leader at my weigh in advises the half the fat for an approx estimate of the sat fat so the beef slices work out about 2.5

Hope this helps

laura

 

[Bexiboo]

Right well i gave the contents for the WHOLE pack, so does this mean it will be 2.5p for all 5 slices then or have you both worked it out per slice, sorry im just confused xx

 

[jennalou0802]

in that case i imagine that it would be 2.5 the whole pack if thats the info u gave yippeeee

 

[Bexiboo]

WOW ok then i will be eating beef after all

Thank you all for the help xxx

Yes I pointed per slice as it normally gives three options on the back... per slice, per 100g and per pack. It wasn't apparent which one you had gave us the details for. Anyhow, glad to help, but I find it strange that roast beef (big slices too!) would only be half a point each. The healthy choice ham that I eat is half a point, but it's just that... a healthy choice. Just don't want you going over your points unknowingly, thats all.

 

[Bexiboo]

No thank you, i really do need help with this as its so confusing, this is what the pack says ....

Haycliffes cooked silverside of beef
Info per 100g...The whole pack is 100g

127 cal / 6.2g Fat

Thats all it gives on the front of the pack and they are huge slices, bought from morissons.

I would rather point it right than under point it and be in trouble.

Yep it is definately 2.5points per 100g, so you are right 0.5points each. Roast beef is surprisingly low in fat, depending on cooking methods.
