today I've had 28 points. I still have another 19 to go for the day. But I've also eaten 1750 calories and I've only had four servings of vegetables today. I've only had 26 gm net of carbs.
I think there is something wrong with how you are counting points. I have been following counting WW points and counting calories for almost a year. For the past several months I've been eating lower carb. I am not a big fruit eater but do eat veggies.
For me, I find that if I count my total calories for the day (including any fruits and veggies) and record points plus that 1 PP equals an average of about 38 calories. This does vary a bit depending on what I eat. 1 PP can be as little as 37 calories and as much as 41 for me. I have been eating lower carb for a few months. I'm currently at 80 net carbs I day having worked my way up.
So if you eat 28 PP and 1750 calories that is about 62 calories per point. That just isn't correct. Even under Momentum points where points were more calories each my average calories per point was between 47 and 50 depending on what I eat.
So -- either you aren't counting calories correctly or you aren't counting points correctly. The only way you could get to the calories you are talking about would be if you were eating huge amounts of zero point fruit but it doesn't sound like you are doing that.
It is true that higher fat food is penalized by the WW PP system and low carb diets are necessarily higher fat. When I was eating 25 to 40 net carbs I was finding that if I ate the same calories that I ate when I wasn't eating lower carb that I would be eating more PP due to the higher fat. Still that was increasing my calories by about 100 or so.
Basically I don't think it is possible to eat the number of calories you indicate and have that equal 28 points.
It might help if you could post what you ate today and portion sizes and how many points you counted each item as since I think there is something going wrong with your calculations of either points or calories.
