   To find your daily points allowance, give yourself the number of points listed next to the option that fits your situation best:

   Your sex:
   If you are female- score 2 points
   If you are male- score 8
   If you are nursing- score 12

   Your age:
   17 to 26- score 4
   27 to 37- score 3
   38 to 47- score 2
   48 to 58- score 1
   Over 58- score 0

   Your current weight:
   Enter the first 2 digits of your weight in pounds. If you are 175 lbs for example, you would enter "17".

   Your height:
   under 5’1"- score 0
   5’1" to 5’10"- score 1
   Over 5’10"- score 2

   Your activity level on most days of the week, how do you spend your day?:
   sitting down- score 0
   occassionally sitting, but mostly standing- score 2
   walking most of the time- score 4
   doing physically hard work most of the time- score 6

   Add up all your scored points- that is your daily points target.

   As you celebrate your birthday, increase your daily activity, or as you lose weight, you will need to keep retaking this quiz to most accurately figure your points allowance.

   Keep in mind that people who attend Weight Watchers meetings lose 3x more than those who go at it alone. To find a meeting location near you or to find out the current price promotions for membership, please look at their website:

   If you "eat" points you might get a stomach ache because digesting "points" can be difficult. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Love, Janie.

   You should have a copy of Weight Watchers’ introductory booklet. It offers healthy weight ranges and the number of points you should use daily.

   Good luck!

   Your target is 182 points per week (26 points per day) plus 35 flex points per week. Good luck!
