Question:
Anyone have a Weight Watchers points calculator?

I am going to follow the Weight Watchers points program for one month before surgery to try to lose some excess weight that I've gained. I have tried Weight Watchers before and have had some short-term success with it. My problem is that after I was approved for WLS, I got rid of all of my WW materials. Now, I need to know what my point range is per day. I currently weigh 315 pounds.    — kristynush (posted on August 8, 2003)

Hi Kristy (nice name by the way...lol) Anyways I have been on WW too and I weigh 375 now still pre-op as well. I was told not to go over 30 points per day. So for you I would say 25-30 would be fine. I wouldnt go over 30 if I was you. I hope this helps you out. Good luck hun :)

I have a really neat Excel calculator. You can enter the food information and it automatically calculates the points per serving. It's a MS Office product, so it won't work unless you have that loaded on your computer. Email me if you'd like me to forward to you. [email protected]. Laura

Hi Kristy - I checked my WW info: 300 - 324 pounds the point range is 30 - 35. If you have any other questions I have kept everything. Good luck to you. Fran

Here's a neat web site that shows WW points and nutritional values of food in poplular restaruants ( http://www.dwlz.com/restaurants.html ) -- Maybe this can help, too.
