What are some of you guys favorite resources for learning about weight watchers? My husband and I did it years ago for a period of time, but I forget everything. I don’t want a membership I would just like to relearn the basics so we can get started. Thanks in advance

I've been down in the dumps all day. Was about to turn in. I have to say, this cracked me up, and I'm wearing a smile for the first time in three days. What the beginning intent, it sure made a lot of us smile. for this, I thank you.

@swept I'm glad my post is the reason you are wearing a smile! That's the reason for the post!

I log my food for the day first thing in the morning while I have my up of tea. It helps me stay on track. I also download the “water buddy” app, it’s free. I set it to remind me to drink every hour, then I log it in the WW app. I ate/eat pretty basic, no special recipes, and I try to stay away from too may proceed foods. I cut out all junk foods and alcohol for about 2 months, then added back in very slowly. Plus I work out 5X a week  Breakfasts: always with a cup of tea 0SP HB egg and piece of fresh fruit 0SP Over easy egg with Aunt Mille bread 1SP and fresh fruit Banana pancake 0SP Lunches/dinners: always with fresh fruit Progresso soups 2-4SP Solid white albacore tuna mixed with red onion and mayo 3SP (mayo) on Aunt Millies bread 2SP Egg salad mixed with mayo 3SP (mayo) on Aunt Millies 2SP Chicken breast mixed with celery, red onion, grapes, mayo 3SP (mayo) on Aunt Millies bread 2SP 1/2 bag shredded lettuce with tomato and above tuna or chicken salad on top no dressing 3SP (mayo) Pizza 8SP with a salad no dressing A price of protein with veggies Snacks: WW fudge bar 4SP (Sometimes in a bowl with fresh berries and Redi Whip 2SP) WW chocolate peanut butter bar 2SP Fiber One brownie 2SP Popables Sea Salt 2SP Emerald pkg nuts 2-3SP Dove dark chocolate 2SP Cut veggies with ranch dressing 5SP I hope this helps. Good luck, enjoy your journey!

I like the app iTrackBites. It tracks points just like WW. It’s free. You fill out the profile part with your info and it figures out how many points you can have for the day. You can scan barcodes to figure out points and track everything in the app.

@handhold7 they also have different plans and a free version as well as a pro paid membership. Very close to WW, and you can track your favorites without data, or you could the last time I used it

@sounding That’s what I use. I just use the free one.

I am grandfathered in from where I paid for the app before it went free. So I have the add ons but not the community part. I switched back to WW thinking I’d go to the meetings and signed up for 8 months, think I have 4 months left on WW and I’ll prolly head back to it
by (5.2k points)
@sounding No I use the iTrackBites app. The free part of it. I never did the WW app. I always went to WW meetings. When I did that.  
by (4.3k points)
@handhold7 yes back when I got iTrackBites you had to buy the app, and all the extras. Now I can do the free and use the extras I paid for. I just can’t use the community part cause that’s part is pro
by (5.2k points)
@sounding I can use the community part. I don’t have the pro.  
by (4.3k points)
@handhold7 really? Last time I tried it was a pro item
by (4.3k points)
Of course I haven’t used it since I thought getting the package I signed up for on WW was going to fix my stall by going to meetings. ( I’ve only been to 2)

@sounding I can get in it.

I find the membership brilliant as I too used to be a member and now I rejoined it's all changed so so much, and for the better. The questionnaire at the beginning works out what plan is best for you and that what is needed I think. As I don't feel restricted at all on the plan I've been put on. It's also only £3 for 3 months and then only I think £14a month after. And the app is amazing. I couldn't do it without that
