I am completely baffled. I'm on WW and I told my WW Lead that the 19 points I am limited to is leaving me under 1000 calories a day. He insisted that it is more because of fats, fibers, proteins, etc.

I told him I felt my body has gone into starvation mode because it's been 3 weeks and I have not lost any weight (this includes a mile of walking a day) - if anything I am starting to gain when someone from a message board suggested I should dip into my 35 extra points for the week and consume 5 extra each day.

The lead urged me to add more protein to my diet, which I have done - by adding eggs, beans, fat free cottage cheese.

At the end of the day, regardless of how I obtain the points, from carbs or proteins, my caloric intake is still between 900-1000 due to the 19 point limitation.

By the time lunch is over, I have practically exhausted my points for the day and am left with 1 point.

Before I was on the protein kick, I would eat every 2 hours, due to hypoglycemia and the point vs. calorie issue was the same.

For example, today I ate my 19 points:

2 cups of Coffee with powdered creamer and stevia
1 cup of fat free cottage cheese with 2 pear halves
1 banana
1 can of chunky healthy chicken soup with organic dark red kidney beans added
20 mini marshmallows
1/2 bag of raw broccoli, cauliflower and carrots
1 slice of WW swiss cheese

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
