NWR: WW girls, help!!!

I want to restart the WW points, but I don't have the $$ to spend on the plan. I know there was a thread on here a long time ago that told you how to calculate the number of points you would get daily, but I can't find it!!!

Stats:
5'8', 169 lbs, want to lose 10 by July 11th
29 yo

Last time I did the points, I got 25 a day, I think. I was about 10 lbs heavier back then, and I stopped doing the points thing when life got stressful! Would I still get 25? More, less?

I did the formula - i just need to know how you spend your day.....


sitting down?
occasionally sitting mostly standing?
walking most of the time?
doing physical hard work most of the time?

Once I know that I will add the formula together and let you know your daily pts target

Megan, I'm just on a 1200 cal. day diet, and lose about 5 lbs./month. I started at 170 and now am 147. I was able to lose 4 lbs. just from running around like crazy helping at kids' camp, and not taking time to eat all my calories!! If you really exercise a lot, it might be possible to lose 10 lbs. 'til July !!! Mary MOB
