LAURA!!!!! WW QUESTION... or anyone else who might know

Oh geez, I hate answering this question. Bare with me.................

Set points are a points value given only to filling foods so that you don't have to weigh/measure them. So for instance, I believe the set points value for whole wheat pasta is 6. So this means you can have as much whole wheat pasta as you NEED (not want) for a points value of 6.

This works best when you're eating out at restaurants and can't really determine portion sizes.

The catch, is that the set points value is higher than a standard portion size points value. So if you decide to use set points and really only eat one cup of whole wheat pasta (but you're not measuring it, so you don't know for sure) you're counting 6 points instead of 3.

Does that help?????

Perfect!

THANKS!!
