Does anyone have the blue calculator that can tell me how to minus a number?

I put in 2 for my bread today but I had one slice so therefore I belive it's a PPV.

how do I get rid of a PPV on the hand held calculator?

Well Cheryl, I tried to help. I have my little manual for the calc here but I dont think it is possible to add back points once they are already subtracted. It does talk about while you are calculating you can divide if you arent having a full serving. They should definitely add a way to make corrections! I guess what I would do is deduct a point the next entry.

HI jdael..

I'm going to take it to the Center today, hope they are open and see if they know how to do this.

I just left it as it was yesterday and then didn't go back to it.

If I get an answer I will post it because it may happen to someone else.

Ty, I've not been able to figure out how to track properly on the blue calculator. I only use it for points calculations and am tracking manually. : (
But... at least I am tracking!

You cannot edit things. The only thing you can do is start your day over and reenter everything else. Or just remember you're off by that number.

If I remember right, there is an immediate edit function, but it had to be immediate or something really odd that really to me didn't make it very useful. It is in the little manual.

Another person told me it's not user friendly also. I'll see on Monday I'd they have a way of going back when you make a mistake. I didn't use it today. I used the online one. Pita it is

Question WW PP Calculation?

I just started WW again and liked doing the manual calculation with my apps on my computer. I had the old calculation, but have not figured out the Points Plus calculation. I noticed that some of you are referring to calculating manually. Could someone give me the calculation for Points Plus so I can adjust my program?
Thanks,

I think if you do a search you may come across it, it's too technical for me and I can't remember it off hand, lol

Thanks,
I saw this posted somewhere and copied it down. I can't verify whether it is correct or not though.

(Protein/10.9)+(Carb/9)+(Fat/3.9)+(Fiber/35)= Points

Yes I have it for Android. I actually signed up for a 7 day free trial to weight watchers. I downloaded the Points Plus Application from the app store, entered my weight watchers log on credentials into the App & am able to use the calculator on my phone. You have to have an active WW membership to use the calculator, with that said, I cancelled my free trial & for some reason my Points Plus calculator is still working?

I thought it would stop working once I cancelled my weight watchers membership, but so far its still working.

Its a great calculator.
On the bottom of the app if you hit the menu it will say "Go to Mobile Site" This is where you can track your daily points & enter food....
I like it! I cant compare it to the iphone app because Ive never had an iphone.

i use a 'points plus' calculator on my iphone that i really like. it calculates points in tenths instead of whole numbers, which i LOVE. it's called: iWatchr
You have to click on the calculator tab at bottom, then click on American, then click on NEW (it can calculate WW points the old and new ways.)

if you go to the market place and search weight watchers points calculator it will give you various app names. there will be one called ultimate point calculator.
its a free app and i checked its accuracy of values with my actual points plus calculator.
it doesnt track but it does have the ability to enter the values just like the calculator you can buy.

hope this helps
i tried to download the app.. and my phone only shows the Ultimate Point Calculator PLUS (which is not free).. am looking through other apps now.. some are complicated.. hmm
