Hi folks.. :sign0144:.. i did ww last year and lost 21.5lbs and got to my goal of 9 st 2lb :party0049:.. im only 4lb over that weight but heading away at the end of aug so wanna shift half a stone :fingerscrossed:.. gives me a wee bit to play with when im away...
anyway.. Bananas.. when it says 1.5 pts for the banana do you weigh it with the skin on or off??.. if you take the skin off it makes a considerable difference to the weight. so skin on or off for weighing? Cheers

I think its skin on, from what i can remember of WW. A 1.5 point banana is a very small/kids banana. i think a big banana can be as much as 3.5 points. we had a big discussion in class about it when i used to go.

sorry.
 
thanks for your reply... wish it was skin off because you dont eat the skin!
 
That's strange because in the eat wise book a small banana is 1pt and a medium is 1.5. I don't understand ww :(
 
No more nanas for me :(
 
it states the weight in which they believe a small and medium banana to be i think, for a small it's 80gs and a medium is 100gs.. or something like that
 
Oh interesting!!
 
This is interesting as i have a childs banana for my breakfast, ive weighed it and its been 120g, ive yet to find one that weighs 80g :(
 
i think i may have to stop eating bananas, or maybe not as many as i do.
 
i have 80g ones lol :) they are very tiny find them in M&S or tesco in little little packs! :D get more in them too! hehe
 
Lol I've cut nanas out of my diet 80g baby nanas seems so ridiculous. I'll never find them in the shops.
 
i ask my leader yesterday she said weigh with skin on then take off half a point for the skin...but id rather now have strawberries you seem to get so many for so little points
 
Maybe an 80g banana is found near very very tiny little monkeys !. I certainly have now found the root of all my weight gain over the years!! Dam it and I was blaming it on the minstrels, maltesers, white bread and home made cakes and all this time it was the bloody big bananas !!!Maria xxx ooo ooo ooo

Me too - damn those bananas. I'll just have to give them up now. :rolleyes:
