CALCULATING WW POINTS

by **Angela** Fri Nov 07, 2008 10:56 am

IT'S VERY SIMPLE, SEE FORMULA BELOW

P=points C=Calories F= Saturated Fat(g) R= Fibre

P=(c/50)+(f/12)-(Min {R 4}/5)

In English!!!

Divide the number of calories by 50
Divide the Saturated fat by 12
Add these together
Divide the amount of Fibre by 5 (if the amount of fibre is less than 4 then use 4 in the equation, if it is greater than 4 use the actual amount)
Now take the total of the Fibre calculation (total of point 4) away from the total of the calories and fat (total of point number3) and this is your number of points.

For example.....

Calories = 714/50 = 14.28
Fat = 9/12 = 0.75

Total = 14.28+0.75= 15.03

Fibre = 9.6/5 = 1.92

Points = 15.03-1.92 = 13.11 rounded to nearest =13

IF THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE LET ME KNOW
