If you haven't, it is well worth the 50 cents or so per day (+ registration). weightwatchers.com allows you to enter the entire recipe and divide the total ingredients' points by the number of servings. If you ate 1/8 of the casserole you had 3 pts in mayo alone. Reduced fat mayo and 98% fat free cream soups, etc lower points. You would be amazed at the delicious taste and the drop in point cost to you! Buy a points calculator for $9.95 from WW and take it in your purse everywhere you go. Restaurants usually have nutritional info - all you need is calories, fat, and fiber to determine the value. Beware. Restaurant meals are ridiculously high-calorie. dwlz.com has an extensive list of restaurant meals' points values so you can plan ahead or record later. SO worth it. You can do this!!! Bother to measure. It will be worth it in your jeans! I’m assuming you have joined WW online.

So, what if I make something at home that has lets say 1/2 cup of mayo and a can of cream of chicken some spices and boneless skinless chicken andI eat a big scoopful. That's when weight watchers gets confusing to me. 1/2 cup of mayo is considered 25 points. Do I count that WHOLE 25 points on my daily points or some of it? Because its not like I am eating that WHOLE 1/2 cup of mayo, cause its mixed in with other things.. right? So, I just get confused when I make my own meal and it calls for stuff. Also.. do you take thepoints book with you everywhere? and sit there and check your points before you eat something so you dont go over? that also confuses me! How are you going to memorize something. I don't want to look dumb. pleeeeeeeeease help I am newly starting this and am so confused. dont have time to go to meetings.

Hopefully I will be looking at maintenance in 6 months or so. I love love love what you said about it. *Fingers crossed* that I am one of those people that needs some 10 points over their (last) daily points total to maintain. Thanks for your posts.
