Hey Nikki, I think that most people try to measure at first and then after they get a feel for it they start to estimate. As long as you are close you will be fine but if you are counting multiple servings as one serving your weight loss will definitely suffer.

It’s not as much of a pain as it sounds. My wife still measures and weighs just about everything and has for years. Once you make the commitment to do it, it only takes a couple extra seconds.

I have a question all of the foods have a serving size so does everyone measure out the food everytime before they eat it? and what happens if you go over the serving sizes? Thank You

Hi Tonya, I have no information about how to follow weight watchers when you are pregnant and would hate to give you inaccurate advice. My suggestion would be to stop in at a local meeting and tell them that you are pregnant and interested in how WW is done differently during your pregnancy. I would think they would be more than happy to discuss it with you. Sorry I can’t be of more assistance.

Hi.. I recently found out that I am pregnant.. I have been on weight watchers for the past two years.. I have lost aprox 90 lbs on it. My goal during my pregnancy is obviously not to lose weight but to maintain a healthy weight and gain moderately. Do you have any suggestions as to how many extra points a day I should eat due to being pregnant.. I am 8 weeks and I have already gained 8 pounds…. HELP!!!

Hi Wendy, 15 pounds is alot to lose in about 3 weeks. Many people take 2 months to lose that amount so I would not be to discouraged. Stay on track and as long as you are doing everything right the weight loss will start again. One thing that I just thought of though, is that after losing 15 pounds you may have lost 1-2 points from your daily point allowance depending on your starting weight. If you haven’t already done so, take the point quiz again with your current weight to make sure that you are using the correct number of points each day.

For zero point items, weight watchers recommends that you limit them to 5 servings per day. Whenever you have multiple servings of an item you should be calculating the points based on the total calories, fat and fiber for the number of servings that you have. For example, if the popcorn is 24 calories, 0 fat & 0 fiber per serving (just some made up numbers) that is 0 points for one serving. But if you have 3 servings that would be 72 calories, 0 fat & 0 fiber which is 2 points and only 3 calories away from being 3 points (they add up pretty quickly). While weight watchers recommends that you only eat five 0 point items per day, they also recommend that you eat five servings of fruit and veggies per day, which are usually 0 points. So they have basically told us in a round about way what we can use for our 0 point items each day. Pretty sneaky, huh?

Thanks for visiting and I hope what I wrote makes sense…
