  Anyone know the Weight Watchers point system?

  by LyinEyes in

  2. physical

  i seem to recall someone talking about having the list of points for the weight watchers point system diet.

  my sister and some of her co workers are planning on going to a weight watchers free meeting.

  i told her of course the will have you pay up , and it is not that expensive, but i told her i might can get the information from someone on the internet.

  Here is the most current Daily Points Range I have

  Your Current Weight Daily Points Range

  less than 150 pounds 18-23

  150-174 pounds 20-25

  175-199 pounds 22-27

  200-224 pounds 24-29

  225-249 pounds 26-31

  250-274 pounds 28-33

  275-299 pounds 29-34

  300-324 pounds 30-35

  325-349 pounds 31-36

  more than 350 pounds 32-37

  Start off by planning your meals to fit the number of POINTS in the middle of your Range. For example, if your Range is 22-27 POINTS, aim for 24 or 25.

  You can vary the number of POINTS within your Range from day to day. Let your appetite, schedule, and weekly weight loss guide you.

  Be sure you always use at least the minimum number of POINTS in your Range. That way you're sure to get enough food to keep your metabolism fueled while losing weight at a safe rate.

  Periodically, check to see if your Daily POINTS Range has changed. Why? As you lose weight, your body needs fewer POINTS.

  Also Growing teens (females under 16, males under 19) Add an additional 2 POINTS to your Daily POINTS Range.

  I hope this helps, I got this recently from a friend of mine. There is also recipes and samples for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

  Should I pay for lunch?

  by writerpen in

  there is this gay man in my church that i've asked to meet me for lunch in about a week.

  he responded through email saying that he would enjoy that and asked "what arrangements do you suggest," thus wanting time, location, etc.

  anyway, this is my thing.

  One needs to see the difference between saying

  1. I would like to meet you for lunch OR

  2. I would like to take you out for lunch.

  the first one seems a mutual get togeather, suggesting each pay his own way. The second is you pay as you invited. Two operative words are MEET and TAKE.

  just my thoughts on the situation, the decision is really up to yourself.

  A very OUTSTANDING letter Sheila, you hit the nail on the head, so to speak. Your husband should be very proud of you, and I'm sure he is, what you did took alot of courage.

  However, some people have closed minds, and I believe the GB, will say and do exactly what they want. It doesn't seem to sink in with them.

  I guess they will do anything to protect themselves and the org.

  You and Bill have my utmost respect for what you are doing for the innocent children of this world.

  How Many Here Have Been Shunned?

  by Reborn2002 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as most of you already know, the jehovah's witnesses are covering an article in their august kingdom ministry to be discussed the weeks of 8/19 and 8/26 which details how they are to shun and avoid those who are no longer members of their organization, even immediate family members.. .

  undoubtedly this article has been written to reinforce to the rank&file jehovah's witnesses the shunning policy, so as to tighten the ranks and prevent members from having the opportunity to learn the abundant contradictions and hypocrisies found within watchtower doctrine and practice from any who may have left.. this policy also serves to divide families and attempt to shame or abuse those whom have chosen to no longer be jehovah's witnesses, for whatever reason.. that much is obvious.

  in recent days this topic has been discussed in detail in various threads.

  Ken CONGRATULATIONS

  Don't be so hard on yourself, the last line you wrote about 28 years ago to marry your wife was a decision that was not a dumb decision, would melt ones heart.

  We have been married 31 years this Sept. and my hubby says things like that to me, and it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

  if...... you had to choose just one to have for the rest of your life, which would it be?

  affection or sex?

  by affection here i mean snuggling, kissing, hand holding, all the little things.
