Point System ... Minimum?!?
There's also the WPA...
target is only a minimum.. not a maximum Will~ "Laura" wrote in message ... It is but don't forget you can earn APs each day to give you more points to eat. It also encourages folks to change lifestyles from one that is inactive to an active one to raise the points in the calculation. wrote in message ups.com... Yikes! That still seems low... Andrea

So this means I have lost 2 points. I thought 20 was hard somedays, 18
is going to really suck. I turn 38 in March, think I can count the extra 2 points now  Brenda Willow Herself wrote: Minimum is 18, maximum is 44 Will~ wrote in message oups.com... Isn't there a minimum number of points? If you were a short, young(er) woman, who weighed 149, you would only have 16 points a day! At only 800 calories, that seems a bit extreme... Andrea

You can always stick with the 20 per day but adjust your 35 WPA accordingly.
If you don't eat all 35 WPA these days then adjusting them down to 21 (35-14) should not be an issue. Or earn more activity points each week. "benny" wrote in message ups.com...

yes there is a minimum and you must remember that the points also consider
fiber and fat so the point could be 70 calories and no fat or fiber, it could also be higher in calories if there are 4 g of fiber, Lee wrote in message oups.com...

I got 2 more points and have started losing again but to tell you the truth
it is sometimes hard for me to eat all of them so at the end of my week I have to eat calorie dense foods to get them all in, Lee wrote in message ups.com... Yikes! That still seems low... Andrea

and if changing what you eat you will get more volume for the point, 215 gm
of cooked cabbage is still 0 points, Lee Laura wrote in message ... It is but don't forget you can earn APs each day to give you more points to eat.

There's nothing magical about the new plan. If the old plan was working
really well for you, stick to your 20 points. I know lots of members who continue with what they've been doing if they have been successful. I couldn't do 18 either but I also know I can lose with as much as 23 plus flex if I eat the right foods and exercise. Audrey "benny" wrote in message ups.com... So this means I have lost 2 points.

Ah...I never THOUGHT about adjusting my WPA down when the daily points
get to be too low...What an AWESOME idea! Louise Laura wrote: You can always stick with the 20 per day but adjust your 35 WPA accordingly.

Everyone is different. I can't eat all my WPAs or I won't lose. So adjusting
mine down is not a problem. I just have to find the magical right number of daily & WPAs to keep the scale moving. "Louise Weiler" wrote in message ...
