    you would probably get 29, it's not worked out in the same way as the old system.

    Hot.chick was right you will probably be on 29 points plus your 49 weekly points :) that is the minimum number of points anyone can have.
  • just wondered it it might be a few more, as compared to someone with less weight to lose. will have to wait and see

    I put your info into my points calculator for propoints and it came up 29. Although I put my info into it and it came up 29 BUT my leader told me my Propoints would be 30 so it may be wrong!!

    my leader said most people would be 29 - I'm sure with the new way propoints is worked out - 1 point wont make much diff.

    :)

    Oh a Palema - V jealous that you hav a calc already ;)
