Weight watchers

feel free to show me where I berated him?

Quote: What are you TALKING about?do you know anything about weight watchers? That sounded like berating.
-
edited...OK. Well it would have been more helpful of Pinkranger to provide the link, like you did, rather than berate km.
-
:grin: Ok, all better.
-
I didnt mean it to sound that way at all.Am I not allowed to use expression in my posts?
-
Sure ... but you "sounded" emotional and irritated... Maybe that's why you and LTTA couldn't get along.

Explain this point system to me, I'm curious.
In front of me I have a Chicken Bacon Deluxe burger from McDonalds, the nutritional value is;
Energy; 2290kJ, or 546 calories.
Protein; 31.7g
Fat (total); 27.2g- saturated; 7.9g
Carbs; 42.6g - sugars; 4.8g
Sodium; 1410mg
That's what all labels must show, the fact they haven't chosen to show fiber probably means there is very little of it. How many points would the be worth, and how do you calculate it?
- saturated; 7.9g
-
When you sign up to weight watchers.. they give u this "points finder"its kinda like a slide.You use the dietary fiber grams.. which isnt listed here but is usually listed. Normally it has about 3 or 4Then you take the calories.. 546and then you take the total fat.. 27.2You slide everything into place and it equals out to about 14 points.
-
So it doesn't account for sugars/saturated fat? Because not all fat is bad for you, mono/poly unsat fat isn't bad. But the sugars are what you mainly want to avoid...if I understand nutrition correctly lol
-
Yup watching sugars is very important since sugars usually turn into fat.
-
Anyone have any TIPS or RECIPES.. from weight watchers? That's what this original thread was about.
-
I have a weight watchers cookbook...if I can find it. What would you be looking for?
-
Well, I just found it, it's a hand me down from Grams, it looks like it was 1994, how much do you think the program has changed? With the discoveries of what you need to stay healthy, I bet a bit has, but some of the recipes will be good...
-
Its probably changed alot. Thanks anyways:)
