Hi! Is there a link to a WW Food Calculator to figure out its points? Sorry if I missed it.
Thank you!
Thank you!

Many people ask about this and very few people know this is possible. YES you can track your Weight Watchers point in your MFP diary.
First off, you need to use the Mozilla Firefox browser. If you don't have it, download it for free - You won't be sorry.
Second - You will need to install a script into Firefox (like a plug-in) that will display the points in your food diary.
Here is the link: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/122949
It can be used for both the old and new points systems.
Here are more instructions about getting it setup: http://userscripts.org/about/installing
I've been using this since March and I absolutely LOVE it. It is like using the WW E tools except for free!!
SOMEONE POSTED THIS THE OTHER DAY...I HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO IT YET. HOPE THIS HELPS. THERE WERE A FEW OTHER POSTS AS WELL. IF I CAN LOCATE THEM, I'LL INCLUDE THEM LATER. GOOD LUCK!0 -
First, make sure you have Firefox installed.
Next, install Greasemonkey from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/748
Once that is installed, go here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/122949 and click on INSTALL in the top right corner.
Greasemonkey will recognize that it is a script and install it for you.
Once you have installed the script, if you want to edit it, follow these instructions:
In the upper right hand corner of Firefox, there should be a little monkey. Click on the drop down menu and click on "manage user scripts." Then it will bring up a new window. Highlight weight watchers script (if its your only one it will already be highlighted) and click on options. It will bring up a new window. Click on script settings and then edit this script. Select "notepad" as your editor, edit line 10 as needed, then click save".
In order for the points to display on MFP, you MUST ONLY have the following stats showing in your diary in this EXACT order:
Calories Carbs Fat Fiber Protein
Any other combination of stats or order, and it won't display points.

Oh I know that. Sorry. I have that already. I need a calculator that I can access on-line if I have a food I don't know the points of. I would like that convenience. But I believe I found one on onemorepound.com that works well.
Sorry you went to all that trouble about the script. Thank you.0 -
