Yes, you CAN earn points for exercise. On the new Weight Watchers program, you do.
A good way to determine the level of exercise you get is as such:
Low Intensity- Not Sweating
Moderate Intensity- Sweating after 10 minutes
High Intensity- Sweating after 3-5 minutes
I try not to use activity points at all… but it’s nice to know that they’re there if you need them.

You dont earn points for exercise. Generally for your height /weight you get a certain number of points to eat a day.
Example: My mom was 5’5″ and 178 lbs so she got 22 points a day to eat. That meant that each thing she ate had a certain number of points (sandwhich = 6 pts).
The biggest thing is try to keep a diary of everything you are eating, drink lots of water and exercise. You will see results. Good Luck!
