I recently purchased the "home" package from weightwatchers. It contains a good booklet with many, many point values for regular food and fast foor. Also a points calculater and some other materials. I am currently newly enrolled in Weightwatchers online. Why should I pay $14.95 a month when I have (I think) everything I need to figue points, etc.
I beleive that the Home version contains all of the materials we get by going to meetings plus a few other freebies. If you don't want to go to meetings then this might be all that you need plus the support of this newsgroup. Many people like the online version but some have commented that they don't like having to be online to check points or journal. Having the materials at home or at the store is an added bonus for many.

I ordered the At Home package last week, but haven't gotten it yet. It's my understanding though that the At Home package gives everything you need to do the program. After all, you can order it over the phone and do the program even if you don't have access to a computer.
I don't intend to join WW Online. I think that between Fitday and the materials that an email this morning told me have been shipped I should have everything I need without the $180 annual charge. Of course once I really get going I may change my mind, but I rather doubt it.
There are a lot of free resources online that give point totals for various restaurants.
You can also get people here to figure points for you in recipes and things if you want. Many of us have software that does that.

You may not need meetings or on line, it is different for each of us. I must go to meetings and I use the on line so I can journal independently. I do it on line except when we are away from home. DH writes it down for m when we are away and the best part is that this allows me to look back at journals when I feel the need. What every you decide, good luck to you, Lee GARY NICHOLS <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...
