      went back to ww etools. I like to track via my iphone so I don't think I can do it thru this and get points and calories.

      Thank you!!
      For those experiencing this issue in Chrome, here is how to get it to work:
      Just add this to the top of the script file:
      (function () {

      and then this to the very bottom of the script:
      })();

      FYI- Here is the bug I filed with Tampermonkey: http://forum.tampermonkey.net/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=623&p=2518#p2518

      Thank you so much! I finally got this to work. Curiosity made me want to know if my calories were consistent with what my WW points should be. Interestingly, I am eating within my calories and consistently staying within my points (daily plus 1/7 of weekly).

      Help......

      hi all,
      I'm having trouble getting this to combined with MFP.
      I believe I did it right but don't know what to do next. see below

      // ==UserScript==
      // @name MyFitnessPal Weight Watchers Points
      // @version 1.1.4
      // @description Adds display of Weightwatcher points to any daily food diary page. Also adds "Real Calories" calcalation based off 4/4/9 algorithm.
      // @include http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/*
      // @include https://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/*
      // ==/UserScript==


      var pointsPlus=true;
      var precisonWW=false;

      It's not working for me either...I have the tampermonkey installed etc and it shows the script is running but on MFP it's not showing points,, still calories. And Ive arranged all the nutrients the way they are supposed to be (calories, fat etc) so at a bit of a loss as well...using Google chrome.
      Thanks

      can anyone help me with this please? I did exactly what the directions said but where am I suppose to do the editing: change something to false, etc...

      Also, what does the page look like when successfully loaded. Is there a column that creates a point from the factors of calorie/carg/fat/fiber/protein????

      Can you provide me a step by step method to do this? I tried but must have something wrong. I really would love to have this.

      Thanks a bunch for posting this! I was looking for a way to do it yesterday after someone mentioned it was possible.

      I finally got the points to work. I had to change line 10 false to true and it came thru. I also took the half point off and made it a whole number by deleting lines 67 & 68. So anything between 50 & 75 = 1 point

      var pointsPlus=true;

      Yay it works! But those of us who are super blonde haha be sure to put NONE after you put your nutrients in order. I had Sugar on the last drop down choice and it threw it off

      Someone posted earlier in thread that if you wanted to say have sugar too in your nutritional values, you would need to edit the following lines. Just installed this today and done this, so can verify that it does work.

      Line 114
      else if (index==6 && $(this).hasClass('delete')) {
      to
      else if (index==7 && $(this).hasClass('delete')) {
      We're simply offsetting the columns where total points should be displayed by 1

      Line 96:
      $(this).find('td').eq(7).html(totalPoints);
      to
      $(this).find('td').eq(8).html(totalPoints);
      To display the total in the right most column as well

      I'm using firefox, but with Scriptish instead of greasemonkey.

      Hope that helps. :)

      Nothing to see here.... I fixed my issues!

      Thanks again for this great tool!

      This is BRILLIANT!!!!!!! I love it! The MFP database is so much easier to use, and I like learning what to eat/nutrition instead of some arbitrary points system only. I really think this might take the place of the online tools for me, and help me decide to switch to the meetings alone for accountability!

      Anyone else do that?
    • Posts: 38 Member
      One more question, does anyone know how to enter our daily allotment of points into MFP?

      Took me FOREVER to figure it out lol. I was confused on where to look for the points value but I found it by going to my food diary on my computer. Not sure if I can see the points on my phone yet. Thanks so much for sharing this info :)

      Glad to see this is still helping a lot of people!! If you have questions about how to get it to work, please look through the previous pages, as it has been explained in detail, many times.
      As far as I know, this does not work on Android or Iphone.

      Thank you so much, this is eye opening!

      ON a good day of 1130Cals I actually ate 24 points, which is 4 over my limit! Some days it went to 30 points, with my cals still under 1200!

      No wonder I'm not loosing weight, the food choices I made was wrong
