Okay. I know several of you who read my blog count WW Points. So here is my question. I bought some fudge pops. Okay it says 2 pops are one serving, but really one is plenty. So, when I go to count it. For 1 bar it is 35 calories, 0 fat, 3 g fiber which = 0 WW points. Can that really be true? If you calculate the serving size of 2 pops, it is 70 calories 0.5 g fat and 6 g fiber. I know though that on WW you can only count 4 grams of fiber per serving so even at 4 grams fiber it is 1 point for 2. So, do you really think that 1 is 0 points? How awesome would that be. It is Blue Bunny Sweet Freedom No Sugar Added Fudge Lites. These were cheaper than the WW ones and I got more pops. Well, I hope some of you know more about counting than me and can answer my question. I just learned this week that you can only count 4 points per serving of fiber for any one thing and I also learned that 0 + 0 does not equal 0 in weight watchers. For example the Progresso Lite Soups which are 0 points per serving well they are 0 points for about half the can, but if you eat the whole can you have to count 1 point per serving because of the calorie count. So, I have eaten almost a whole can sometimes and only counted 0 points. Guess I still got a lot to learn.
I also bought some new WW yogurt flavors. Strawberry Shortcake and White Chocolate Cheesecake. They sound yummy. I can not find the Boston Cream Pie, but some of you have said it is nasty anyways.

Yes, I have bought the blue bunny before and it is cheaper and just as tasty as WW. I believe you are right in the points on those. I wasn't aware of the points on that Light Progresso soup..I had been eating the whole can too thinking zero points. I am not really counting points right now, just watching what I eat, but I need to get back counting again so the weight will come off quicker. I need a pep talk cause the past week has not been good for me. Lots of stress and it throws me off. You are so faithful and I am still so proud of you. You amaze me at your dedication to your points. You will be teaching WW when you reach your goal weight!
Loris, I just looked in my WW 2008 Complete Food Companion and it says that Blue Bunny Sweet Freedom No Sugar Added Fudge Lites is 1 point for 2 bars. I would probably count 1 bar as .5 points.
Thanks Becky! I need to buy one of those books and the dining out book. I have seen them on e-bay!
Thanks for helping out. I was just putting a 0 point can of Progresso soup in the microwave bc today is my WW weigh day and it got me thinking, could the whole can be 0 points? I love using my calculator but it's also good to know that 0 pts for 1 serving may be 1pt for 2 and that helps keep me from cheating!
Thanks very nice blog!
