Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / August 2005Banking Points
Thanks for the welcome, have started well today with 2 point to 'bank'. Does this mean I can save them up for later, can't find any info on the site? Barb I believe if you bank points by excercising you have to use them up the same day that you do the exercise. As far as I know.

As far as I know. I find if I don't eat all the points and the two teaspoons of fat, I lose less. I have no idea how it happens, but it does. >Thanks Suzanne, but what about the points saved if you don't use them all in >one day?

If you don't use your banked points the same day, they go down the drain. Suzanne > Thanks Suzanne, but what about the points saved if you don't use them all > in one day?

However, if you're consistently coming up short on points, you need to get those points in to keep your metabolism up. So, in my opinion, if you're running short of points more than once every week or two, go ahead and add them on to your next days allowance. Personally, I always add them on to the next day just to be safe. That reflects my bias, though. In my opinion, Flexpoints is on the stringent end of the scale as far as caloric intake goes, and so runs more of a risk of adverse metabolic reactions then some other eating plans out there. My WW leader seems to recognize this, too. One of the first questions she asks when anybody plateaus is "Are you eating ALL of your points?" So I always make sure to use all the daily, flex, and exercise points. - Brian 226.5/216.5/160 >> Thanks Suzanne, but what about the points saved if you don't use them all >> in one day?

"Banking" is just a code word for cheating on your health. Let's not pretend that overweating, whatever you call it, is harmful and will shorten your life.
