Me too! I actually managed to lose one WHOLE pound this week which doesn't sound much but to me its great - its the first pound I've lost since Christmas even though I've been Low GI-ing all that time! Obviously writing down everything I eat and keeping to 1500 cals has done something.
So, keeping that in mind, my points will be:
1 point for writing down my calories every day
1 point for not eating more than two medium GI foods and no foods which are high GI
1 point for exercise in excess of one hour of walking
and, to borrow 2frustrated's brilliant idea, 1 point for mindset (this is the one I'm most likely to not do too well on)

- its the mindset thing. Feeling a bit miserable because I don't understand why, if I'm eating the correct number of cals and the right types of food AND getting plenty of exercise - then why aren't I losing weight???
