Your max points would be 27. I am guessing you are going to do the range of points and not flex right? Cherryl, the easiest thing to do is go to these 2 sites: http://quiddity.cc/rachel/diet/wwfoods.htm http://www.dwlz.com/restaurants.html these sites have the basic foods and their points and portions, make sure to eat the correct portion- no more, no less. And the other site has restuarants that have their points for their food. If you have the points calculator, which can be found at; http://www.dietsinreview.com/Weight_Watchers_Points_Calculator/ you can figure out anything that you know the calories, fat, and fiber. And I have found that some resurants also have on their site that information about their food that you can figure it out also. Good luck everyone!

I have the point chart and ordered a calculator. I can't afford to join WW. What I need to know is how many portions of each food group I can have. I weigh 167# and am 5'4" and am over 50. Can anyone tell me this? I am trying ww with points. I have the point chart and ordered a calculator. I can’t afford to join WW.

Both times, I lost approximately 45lbs each time, most of which was lost in the first 2 months. Remember to stay within your point range. Drink plenty of water, this flushes your system, watch your portions, don't guess, remember to eat your frutis and vegetables each day and you WILL lose. Don't deprive yourself. If you need a snickers bar, go for it, just get back on track after you've had your fix. I remember one lady that was in my WW class who was so upset that she did not lose that week, because she did everything right, or so she thought, when the counselor began asking her what she had for the week, she explained that for a snack she would eat Fat Free Cool Whip. For a single service the points were zero, trying to remember back, so ... she figured since the points were zero she could have all she wanted, she at e 3 tubs that week! As you can understand, they figured out why she did not lose. Stay with it, it works. I have followed the WW plan at two different times in my life.

W.W. really does work well. I was on it before and lost 100 lbs in one year! Unfortunatly I had tough times in my life after that and fell off the banwagen. I wanted to join W.W. again but right now that is not financially possible so I am ever so greatful for websites like these that provide free information for all of us.

I would prefer not to have to join again just to find this out! If anyone knows would you please reply? Thanks! hey Brandi,
