Hello all. I was wondering why the online point tracker logger thingy is the way it is....for instance, if I eat a bagel in the morning (1pt) and then have one as an anytime snack....it counts as two points....but if I have two bagels in the morning...it totals to like 3.5 or something similar. Is this correct? So basically I can have the same foods in one day, as long as its not at the same time?? When im not near my computer, I have a hard time remembering that I ate two of them...at one time...and its NOT going to count as 2 points...instead 3? I have the WW handheld calculator...is there any way add up the points in this way? would I be doubling the calories...fat...and fiber? It seems im just not quite understanding this...

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks for all the clearing up

I don't use the online point tracker or calculator, but I have noticed that sometimes how you add things up can change the total. For example, if I eat 2 ryvita crackers and 1 wedge of laughing cow light cheese and tally their points individually, I get 2. BUT, if I add the total calories, fat grams and fiber and calculate on those totals, I get 1. (Guess which value I use ?)

I don't get why the difference is so much on your bagels. I guess make sure it's the correct item and check the calories, etc. Maybe someone else uses the online tools and has seen the same thing. I would check the value against a pointsfinder and see how it tallys by hand. Could be problem in their database.
