Points bracelet?

  • I went to my WW meeting this morning and they were selling Points Bracelets. I have never seen or heard of them before. I am curious as to how they work, since the beads go all the way around, how are you able to keep track of your points?

  • Each pearl or rock on the bracelet is a point, and you have a little clippy thing that you move around the bracelet to keep track of your points during the day. i think the starting bead is different, so you know which way to go.

    I haven't bought one myself, since it was very easy to make. Ebay also has them.
  • trixipup,
    Thank you for answering my question. The ones that I did see were white with a black starting bead, but now that I think of it, there was a silver heart, which I thought was a charm. That must be what is inserted between the beads to keep track of points. Now it makes sense to me.
  • It has 2 black beads which indicate the start of your day. Then five white beads separated by a silver bead (so it's easy to eyeball segments of five). you move the little heart-shaped charm between the beads as you consume points.

    I got one as a gift, but I don't think I'd spend my own money on it. It's cute, and some people in my WW meeting like it. At the least it's a subconscious reminder to stay on track, so that's a good thing.
  • Don't buy the points bracelet on ebay, the ones that sell at the WW centers are 8.95 and some people sell them for 30.00 on ebay and one time I asked why they do that, and the reply was cause i can. Oh well, go to the centers much cheaper.
