Can anyone help me I lost the Wendy plan for calorie cylcling, I wanted to
start it again and give it to a friend also.

Is this it ? I have always heard of it in reference to Weight Watchers- never seen it for calories.

I have heard of it only in the Weight Watchers sections here also. Calorie counters don't usually use the Wendie plan, we normally just cycle them (if we choose to cycle) in a range that we have chosen.

I've heard of calorie cycling but it's usually when I stumble on unhealthy pro-ed stuff.

Anyway, I imagine you could create your own...

1) 1200
2) 1700
3) 1400
4) 1200
5) 1600
6) 1400
7) 1600

Something like that anyway. It'd depend on your exercise levels... if you're a super-exerciser you'd want to bump the numbers up a bit.

ive seen the wendie plan in relationship to calories instead of ww pts....and actually, it was on a forum that i was looking for when i stumbled upon this one...i think it was called chubbie buddies or something, but i never did find it again.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I hope it helps:

I know this is an ancient thread, and I am sorry to bring it back, but I am going to try this for the next 2 weeks or so- I have hit a horrible plateau and I am hoping this will break it.

i read you were wondering about the wendy plan. i have all the information you might need and if you email me i can send it to you. i have the point ranges and the points for each day for the categorys you might want.

here is some information i have

less than 150 18-23
150-174 20-25
175-199 22-27
200-224 24-29
225-249 26-31
250-274 28-33
275-299 29-34
300-324 30-35
325-349 31-36
more than 350 32-37



any more information you may have to ask me for.

if you want to go by calories with the wendy plan just figure out that each point represent 50 calories.just multiply your points times 50 and that gives you the calories for the day.

Hi .

Wow...this zombie post keeps coming back!

Just to point out the original post was done THREE YEARS ago and the first resurrection was done over a YEAR ago.

The Wendie Plan 3 days on, 4 days off -60 lb. from mag. article in 2000 ?

This is only 1050c so only do 3 days a week. It is hard to do, so stick with it; it does work!! The original Wendy lost 60 pounds pretty quickly, like 4 lb. a week or something. It doesn't matter when you do the 3 days, together or split them up. Just 3 days on and 4 days eat what you want (is what she said). I found it was hard to get through the 2nd day, but worth it. I also found I ate very reasonable portions on my 4 days off. It just takes a LOT of discipline to do the 3 days on... I think the article was in a Women's Health or some Women's something magazine... Good luck! I don't know about the points version of this that people are posting. I only did the one above. Had trouble staying on it, but it works.

That sounds incredibly unhealthy to me!
