    When you say WW, you mean Weight Watchers? You don't use points through this site, but you count calories. I'm on WW and still follow the points system while tracking the calories as well. I've been very successful with doing both at the same time. Welcome to the site!

    Hi,

    I started a month ago and it's really opened my eyes to how I was eating before. I have lost 17lbs since 7/1 and I tell everyone about this site! I love it!

    I wish you much success!!

    One of the things I like about this site versus a site like fitday.com is that on fitday, if I add a food that's not in the database, I don't think it adds it anywhere that anyone else can use it, so you end up having loads of food that you have to manually enter. I also didn't like that if I typed in "Boiled Eggs" it would give me a long list that started with "Boiled Goat" (Which I didn't realize was a popular food, but maybe it's regional) and I'd have to scroll loads just to get to a boiled egg. This site, it not only seems to have most foods that I type in, but you can see how many people have verified that the data is correct.

    I also LOVE that it has stuff so that I can enter my Wii Fit activities for exercise (though I don't know if there's a way to add new ones, because it seems some of the ones I might do are not in the current list)
