I don't know if most people know how to work out the points your allowed,but for those who don't here it is.
Are you
Female = 2
Male = 9
16-20 = 5
21-35 = 4
36-50 = 3
51-65 = 2
over 65 = 1
How much do you weigh
You get a point for each stone you weigh don't include the lb (10st 6lb = 10 points)
Your height
Under 5ft 4ins = 1
5ft 4ins and above = 2
In day to day life do you
Sit down most of the day = 0
Occasionally sitting but mostly standing = 2
Walking most of the time = 4
Doing physically hard work most of the time = 6
Do you want to
lose weight = 0
maintain your current weight = 6
Add your score and this is your allowance per day.

19 points - that's not much really

Kidstrack2 · 21/02/2006 16:55

Wow I'm allowed 26!

Kidstrack2 · 21/02/2006 17:01

Female 2pts
Age 4pts
Weight 8st 11lbs 8pts
Height 5ft 6ins 2pts
Walk all the time 4pts
Maintain weight 6pts = 26pts
That really is amazing all my friends do weight watchers, and they are only allowed 17pts, so really they have a bit of weight to lose, they hadn't told me it was based on this, very clever i think
