Brand. Depending on sugar volume. I’m guessing.

@smitty that's what I thought but when I scanned my bottle I then searched for the exact name and it's different. Confusing

@soggy the app is different than my bottle at home. They're both jim beam whiskey, but two different pts. Confusing.

I guess if I save all my weekly for Sat night drinking it defeats the whole diet thing.

I didn't scan the bottle, I just looked it up on the WW site. 2 or 3 points for 2 oz. Not bad.

@wiggle are you on purple? I looked it up in the app and it's 4pts for 1 shot, that's 1 1/2 oz
by (1.5k points)
@repp45264 yes I'm on purple. It's actually 3points for 1 +1/2 oz.

Not sure why they're different

@repp45264 I didn't see Jim Beam on mine. I just have generic whiskey or scotch whiskey.  
by (630 points)
@wiggle yea my husband drinks the generic. He has ezra brooks, so I scanned that and was 2pts per shot. I may need to switch  
by (1.5k points)
@repp45264 whenever I want whiskey, I will have 1 oz. and that will be it. I'm fine.  
by (630 points)
@wiggle I envy you for that. Lol

What I’m hearing right now is I should not be ashamed when I sit at a bar adding my drinks verses meals on WW app.
