Software search

Weightwatchers online ... it costs something like $15 per month, you can track your points there,
they have tons of recipes... search by meal (breakfast, light lunch, dinner, appetizer etc) or by
points or by food type (ie chicken). Teri

I've been looking all over the place for a recipe managment software that includes nutritional
analysis (not a necessity) and a way to search by points (an absolut necessity). I haven't been
able to find anything that allows me to search by points and I thought that someone out there
might have a suggestion for me. Ideally, I'd like to be able to search a range of points and a
category i.e. a side-dish recipe between 4 and 7 points or a crock pot recipe under 10 points.

Thanks for any suggestions that you may be able to offer : )

Thanks for the info, Teri, but I was looking for something that I could download and install on my
computer. I tried WW online about a year ago and I just can't afford to spend that money each month
on top of my regular WW meetings and my gym membership.

Seeing that weightwatchers closes down anything and everything that infringes on their copyright, I
highly doubt you will ever find a software program that will include *points* ... until ww gets
around to releasing one, and I don't see that happening either. The best I think you are going to
find is Mastercook. It does have all the nutritional information for recipes and you can figure your
points from there. You can search categories, but no way to search points ... unless you add the
points to the categorie listing (ie: make categories such as 1, 2, 3, etc.). Heck, I never thought
of doing that either - might just go and try it with a few recipes - just to see what happens.
