When I was doing the old programme Wine Gums were 2.5 a roll that's what makes me think! If your not 100% sure I'd work out the Fruit Pastilles from the Nutritional Info. On the old points they were 3points a tube so I would say that they are 5pp now :eek: Hope I'm not the bearer of bad news if you've pointed from this list for other things
I could be wrong best to get a 2nd opinion 
Yep they're the old points but in case there's anyone doing the old points some of them are wrong. Fruit pastilles are 2.5 points. The best thing is to point your favourite individually.0 -

Just tucking into a big bowl of chicken, lots of veggies and a packet of Ainsley Harriet Spice Sensation cous cous! I have to say it is the yummiest dinner I have had in a very long time! And for 5pp for 100g it's a great alternative to rice!
My parents treated the family to a take away tonight, I made a quick exit down to the gym and made sure they were finished by the time I got home! Anything to resist temptation
Weigh in tomorrow evening, nervous as hell, like ALWAYS!!!!
Best of look to everyone for the coming week 0 -

hi guys, i'm a newbie who'd love to join the thread
i've been following the thread for a while now, and this is my third attempt at ww. i'm doing it myself, not going to meetings, so sometimes extra motivation is needed!
I'm currently weighing 9.6, which may not seem like a lot, but it's the heaviest I've ever been. I'm very small in height so I think I look dumpy at the minute, and that combined by not fitting into some of my clothes has ultimately drove me to the diet!
I absolutely love food and have a huge appetite (something I get a little embarrassed about!) and have a massive sweet tooth.
Here's to the journey!
Hi Rawwrrrr!
Welcome to the thread!....

Well Done Lisa_Celtic - Congratulations!!!!
My WI this eve but not sure how good the results will be due to TOTM but was very good this week so hoping to see some negative figure anyway!kyetreeohna wrote: »Hi all, just wondering about where you measure your waist.

According to the 'stop the spread' campaign - for the most accurate result measure halfway between your lowest rib and the top of your hipbone, roughly in line with your belly button. They've a video to show you on their website: http://www.safefood.eu/Stop-The-Spread.aspx0 -

I measured myself there and according to the results I should be a size 22-24 in clothes. I am nowhere near that I am comfortably a size 16 in 90% of shops - in the occasional place the 16 may be a bit tight but the 18 a bit loose and I go for the 18 for comfort (not anymore encouraging me to get bigger rather than smaller) and in other shops I would fit into a 14. I really think I am doing it wrong

Well done Lisa. I cannot wait to be in the 11s can't remember the last time I was. Still 1st 5lbs to go until I am. Tomorrow is ny first WI and am hoping to lose 3. I can only imagine how happy I will b to finally get under 12st:-) best of luck in reaching ur goal x0 -
Had my WI, up a lb.
was disappointed but I knew that my weight hadn't gone down any on my scales at home for over a week. I kinda slacked off tracking this week so that's probably to blame as well as not starting exercising yet. Well just going to get on with this week and not dwell on it. I'm only 5lbs away from my first stone so just going to reach for that! Well done everyone who has had a loss this week. 0 -

That is such a pain! I'm in pretty much the same boat except I'm in 16-20 range. Makes buying anything online difficult unless I know the brand - roll on weight loss with ww!!! Do you mind me asking what your using to calculate the resulting sizes?0 -

I can not remember the 11s either... I think I skipped them somewhere blurry between the "starvin marvin" teenage years and the "drinking every night beer belly" collage years hehe great to be in them I have my goal set at 11 stone but thinking 10st 10lb would be my real goal
Good luck with W.I every one... I have really slowed down from losing 4s n 5s a week to anywhere between 0.5 and 1lb... so dont be disheartened by small numbers they all ad up and are a step in the right direction!!0 -

Hi there! My narrowest point is at my belly button! I was not aware there was a dillema such as this?!

Ah not to worry WW, (that's for WestWing not WeightWatchers) It happens to us all. The main thing is to keep on going towards that goal. One lb is nothing in the grans scheme of things, so don't loose the faith x 0 -

@tiny_penguin: Just checked mine on some clothes websites as well and yeah they're totally skewed so no help to you there - sorry!
On the plus side down 3.5lbs today at WI - thrilled!
On the negative - my little fella started making a fuss during the meeting so I had to leave (would hate to interrupt the talk for anyone else) so a bit peeved about that as its the time when I get my head straight for the rest of the week. :mad:0
