Hi,
I'm new and I was wondering if there is a way to track points instead of calories as I'm doing weight watchers. Thanks, Pat:laugh:

I haven't found a way, but I just have my tracker right next to my computer. When I log my food I just quickly check the points and write down just the points tally. With the site you have to be careful because sometimes if you are eating really high fat foods it will say you have more calories than WW will give you. The opposite is true if you eat a lot of low fat/ high fiber food a lot, then the site will run out of calories but on your tracker you will have more. The same with exercise as it lets you eat all your exercise points, which WW limits. I had to fiddle around with my goals section to get a calorie total daily that is close to where my points total is at.
I hope that makes sense.0
