Hi Kathy and welcome to the site!

When it comes to 0 point items, WW recommends that you limit yourself to 5 servings per day. The reason is that even though the items are 0 points, they still contain calories and eventually those calories will start to add up. Thanks for visiting and thanks for the kind words about the site.

Hi! I just stumbled across this site this morning and think it’s AWESOME! I’m surprised WW lets you keep all this information on here. Other people have to pay for it….

I tried Weight Watchers once before and notice the points for vegetables seem to have changed. I know this sounds like a dumb question, but if the point total is zero, like for carrots as an example, I can eat as much as I want?

Thanks Amber! It’s comments like that that keep me going. Don’t forget to tell your WW friends about the site and good luck with your goals!

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for such an amazing website! I really appreciate all the great tips and the easy to use calculator. Not to mention the list with the foods with only a point or two.

I started back on WW this past week and although tough at first to remember how to do it (and do it right) I am getting there and this website will be a huge help.

Thanks again!

WOW! That’s a great number! I felt that the program was very easy at first, also. The last few weeks I have been struggling to lose the same 1 pound to hit my 10% mark. I keep losing a little, then gaining a little…time to step it up a notch.

PS – Don’t forget to subtract a point from your daily allowance

Hey Dan!
I did my first weigh in this morning since I completed week one. I started at 197 lbs., I now weigh 189 lbs. Wow! This is too easy to be true. I realize the first two weeks will have the biggest loss in terms of inches and pounds, but I am still psyched! Your site has helped me daily, thanks again.

Hi Kelley! Basically whenever the second digit of your weight changes you subtract a point. Example: if you weighed 150 one week and then the next week you weighed 149 you would lose one point. Hope that helps and thanks for the kind words.

I am starting WW on Monday, my points per day are 24 total. How do I know when to change my point intake as I am losing weight? What is the calculations for this? (ie: for every 10 lbs lost take away 1 point?). Thanks! BTW Great website!
