I would guess, and stress guess, that your points adjust to how heavy you weigh, and if your weigh in showed you are heavier than previously thought then your allowances would rise accordingly ?

well i thought that too - but i lost 4lb, so surely it should be less points?

One might have thought fewer points, but maybe they just miscalculated last time. In which case you were on a harsher regime for a week which might have accounted for a greater loss than you would have had otherwise.

they calculate your daily points on your weight so say you weighed 15 stone they would give you 26 points then when your weight goes below a certain level you are allowed more points, say 29 as they don't want you to lose too much weight too soon. so you could have been on the 'cusp' of the points change : hope that makes sense ?
