I've been doing WW since early August and go to the meetings every week. DH and I have lost over 70lbs between the 2 of us!!! I'm down 36 and he's down 35 right now.

Honestly? DH tried using the materials a friend shared with him on his own before we began doing this. Now you may be better, but he failed miserably. There's just something about that accountability of weighing in each week that's worked so well for us. And I'm not sure if you can find the slider thing that figures the points out for you - ebay maybe? They also have books that tell you how many points the items are. Try looking on www.weightwatchers.com and see if you can look up how many points you are allotted for your height and weight without being a member. It's possible that's available to you!

I personally cannot live without WW etools that help me track my points and is part of their program. DH and I talked about it just last night and I told him even after I reach my goal weight I'm paying for that sucker each month for as long as I'm able to just to stay on track Every morsel that goes in my mouth is counted and for me that's been the key. I've tried just about everything out there before this...sparkpeople, other online trackers and for me they didn't work. But everyone is different and something for you to check into as well!

Good luck!
