Help Please! WW points question.. getting 2 different answers..

So I have a points question... When I enter the nutritional info into the WW scale, I get 0 points, but when I use the online points calculator, I get 2 points...

Roasted Garlic with White Wine Perdue Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast is the item.

110 calories
1.5 fat
0 fiber
137 grams a serving/4.8oz (the scale asks for weight)

And I thought grilled chicken was 3 points.. now I'm TOTALLY confused!!

I would go off the 2pts, if that was me.
Maybe its 2 due to the portion size.

If I didnt have my computer, I use the handy point calculater

Grilled ckn is 3pts, with bone. (per E tools).

Uck, so should i use 3 points? Why is the scale telling me 0? I feel like the scale is the most accurate because you also enter in the size (grams.)

I'll go with 3 I guess... thanks!

yea, I'll totally ask on Saturday. Today is day 3.. I know it'll take time getting used to it. The scale is AWESOME!! (except for this issue lol) I totally recommend buying it if you're new at it. The other day I was about to eat a banana and count it as 2 points, but for the h ell of it I used the scale and because of the weight, it was 3 points.. I'm not messing around with that extra point... I want to enjoy every last one..lol

I don't know why the scale is telling you zero points? I would go by what the NI is on the package.

That's what I did.. I went by the info on the package.. came up zero. It's fine.. I ended up weighing it and typing chicken into the scale.. said 4 points.. so I went with that!

I just ate this the other night! I counted it as 2 points because that's how the point calculator on etools calculated it based on the nutritional info. on package.
