A question here---
If a doctor says to eat around 2200 calories a day, how many points a day would that be?

Thanks.

One point usually "averages" about 50- 60 calories, but the range can be from about 30 - 90, so it really depends on how much fat and fiber you are eating.

40 - 45 points probably would be about right, but if you have to be more precise than that, you could try tracking both for a few days to find your average based on the types of food you eat.

Thanks for the information, Colleen

20 = 1150
21 = 1200
22 = 1250
23 = 1300
24 = 1350
25 = 1400
26 = 1450
27 = 1500
28 = 1550
29 = 1600
30 = 1650
31 = 1700
32 = 1750
33 = 1800
34 = 1850
35 = 1900

But remember this can be up or down based on fat and fiber and DOES NOT include the 200-250 calories a day that W/W built into the program for free veggies

Thanks a bunch, Kelly.

How many points should I be eating at 260 lbs....I forget ...

[Tina]

At 260 lbs., your Points target is 30.

250 to 274 lbs is 30 points per day, plus the 35 flex points per week
