did you know that the american points calculator is totally different to the uk one??

i have been pointing my stuff on a calculator online but just used a different one , the UK one and the points are coming up lower!! i have been over pointing stuff

 

[Dreamer<3]

I use a pointer on line Calculator.net : Free Online Calculators this one..... is that the one you've been using? x

 

[nicoleaimee]

yep thats the one i was using!!! if you use this one Weight Watchers POINTS® Calculator

things come up totally different :-( my dinner tonight has 359 cals and 1.1 sat fat and the usual one says 7 but the uk one says 5.5, which one will i use?

 

[Dreamer<3]

Well thats really good then, How did you find it? I have stopped going to the classes now as I didnt like the leader but I am dertimened to do it myself 100% x

 

[nicoleaimee]

i just googled uk points calculator and it was the first one to come up! what one will i use, i dont want to under point either :-(

 

[nicoleaimee]

oh i do it myself too!

 

[Dreamer<3]

We could do it together and encourage each other along the way if you wanted to. Seems we have the same amount to lose and stuff. I am bridesmaid for my dads wedding in October so thats why that is my goal. Do you do any excercise? thats my problemo x

On my esource (ie; official) WW points calculator, that comes up 5.5 points honey! woohoo, more points free for you! xx

my bf downloaded the uk version for me the other day so its always on my desktop now, which is handy. Its really accurate too, i tested it you see! on a weight watchers meal which already has the points value on the box and I put in the cals and sat fat for the meal and the points came up the same!! Who needs meetings!! haha

 

[Anthony Smith]

The correct one is the UK one, not calculator.net and i just checked with my points calculator and my weight watchers points finder book that your dinner will be 5.5 points

Hope this helps

Do the americans not use calories and fibre as opposed to calories and sat fat. I too used the america calculator when doing ww a few years back lol

 

[Anthony Smith]

No see the Americans would sprinkle over fibre powder on their dinner making it lower in points but at the end of the day they were only cheating themselves out ! LOL

[Mumzy]

Oh nightmare!!! Funny a kind lady on here e mailed ww recipes a while back, they were american and I suspected at the time the points weren't right so didn't use them - that must be why!!!

Where can you get the UK one please?

I have been 'making do' with a points chart thing my friend got at her WW meeting last year but a calculator would be loads easier!
