Let's say you get to have 20 points a day. Maybe Thursday you would only eat 18 and then on Friday only eat 18 and then you would have 4 extra points to use on Saturday. Hope this helps!

Re: Who can explain WW Banking Points to me?

you can't bank more than 5 food points a day and you can't bank more than 4 fitness points a day. You are suppose to eat at least the minimum of your points range and you could always workout more than 4 points but you can't bank them...does that make sense? Any way you use your banked points sometime throughout the week (you can only use 10 banked points at a time) and then at the end of the week you loose all your points and start over again. Hope that helps.

Re: Who can explain WW Banking Points to me?

I think the excercise stuff you get in week 4. I just started on Saturday and was told it was week 4.

Has anyone done the banking points thing?? I am suppose to have 20 - 25 points and I eat 20 - 23 points but i just stick to my normal foods.

I know next weekend i have a gtg with my bridal party and there is going to be so much food so i want to bank some points for the gtg so i can splurge just a little on the goodies.

Re: Who can explain WW Banking Points to me?

chippa, but if you have been exercising, I think you can start banking them now, b/c they suggest you start doing something for exercise starting from week 4 or did I totally not understand them...

I can't seem to stay in my point guidelines, I am over by a few usually and need to learn to eat smaller lunches and breakfasts... Recently, breakfast has been the problem causer.

The key to banking is that you must eat your min.. and you can bank the difference from the top of your points rnage...

Re: Who can explain WW Banking Points to me?

At the meeting I went to, I thought it said 30 min of cardio was 4 points, but I could be wrong.

I cannot speak to banking points, since I have not banked any yet The little things (like a glass of wine) keep sneaking up on me. Looking at my journal, I am wondering if I should be in AA not WW
