Your Points® budget

When you joined the Healthier You programme, you were given a number of Points to “spend” on any food and drink that you want. This is your daily Points allowance, and it’s formulated to make sure that you get sufficient nutrition while still losing weight. That’s why we use a scientific calculation of your individual metabolism (based on your age, height, weight, and biological sex) and then adjust it based your food preferences and whether you want to lose weight or maintain your weight. It may change as you make progress.

You don’t need to track foods that are on your personalised ZeroPoints foods list.

  • By mixing and matching foods that have Points with foods that are zero, you’ll always have room in your budget for a tasty and satisfying meal.

  • Your weekly Points® allowance is a bank of extra Points you can use as a cushion if you go over your daily allowance. They reset (you guessed it!) every week.

Sticking to your Points Budget will not only help you lose weight (or maintain a healthy weight if that’s your goal), it will help you ensure you have a healthy, balanced diet as you work towards reducing your risk of Type 2 diabetes.
