I am following weight watchers and i even have points left over… This is my second week. I lost 6 pounds but i weighed myself that next day and i gained 2 back. I ate my points or less, but i don’t get it?

You’re supposed to eat all of your daily allotted points. If you eat less, your body goes into starvation mode and you have a lot more trouble losing weight.
Also, your weight fluctuates day to day, even hour to hour. This is why it’s a good idea to only weigh yourself once a week and generally around the same time. For example, if you try weighing yourself as soon as you wake up, again in the middle of the afternoon, and then once again at night. You will get a different number each time, though it will be around the same range.
Well weight watchers can be confusing. But that is great that you lost 4 pounds. Anyways some food tends to have more carbs than others
Example:
one can of soup could have 0 points in it but could have more carbs than a strawberry short cake which has 4 points. So don’t just think about the points, read the labels too
As jen said above, you need to consume all of your daily points. The 35 weekly points are an option but the daily points all need to be used. Since you are just starting off, I would refrain from weighing yourself other than at the weekly meetings so that you can see your whole weeks worth of progress. If you are sticking to the program, there is no need to keep weighing yourself.
