Anybody here on Weight Watchers know how to calculate points for multiple servings?

When calculating points for multiple servings, do you just multiply the points value for one serving by the number of servings you are having or do you add up the calories, fat and fiber for the multiple servings and then calculate the points based on the totals?

The first way generally comes out to a point less that the second way. But I'd like to know the correct method.
Thanks,
Ame

I usually just figure out one serving and if I have a second serving I just count it again. I am going to a meeting tomorrow and I will ask. Good question!

Ame, I asked and was told to double the info. 2X Calories, 2X Fat, 2X Fiber. They said the reason for that is the way the slider is set up it may just put it to the next point. However, I was then told that if you are eating it at different times of the day that you do it individually. I hope that helps.
