Hi all,

I'm a 22 year old female and have battled the bulge for too long! I'm looking to start weight watchers on Tuesday after unsuccessfully tackling my weight issues! Ive previously calorie counted but I think it's about time I enlisted some further help as I've kept falling off the wagon. I'm really excited! Looking forward to chatting to you all and meeting other weight watcher members :)

Oh and I'm aiming to lose 10lbs a month until the end of December!

Xxxx
 
I'm a bit confused at the moment, can anyone help me out - which tools do I need for weightwatchers? And how will I work out points for things? Do I need to buy a kitchen scale and a pronpoints calculator :s hope you guys can help - complete newbie to ww!
 
A calculator is useful if you aren't doing the monthly pass. If you do monthly pass then you get an online calculator, and if you have an iPhone or an iPad then there is an app with a calculator (but you can only use it with a monthly pass). Otherwise a calculator is god when out shopping. The other thing I would get it the eating out guide.

Scales def aren't needed

Good luck!

Hi Hun I take it ur doing it at home ? Could u go to one class so u can get the booklets that explains it, they will also work out how many pp's u will be on & would be a good idea to get pp calculator I use mine all the time. U can get a lot of info on here regarding pp's or ask if there's something in particular u want to know pp's of u can ask on here xx

Valerie - thank you for the tip! I wasnt that clear, I'm starting the meeting on Tuesday! I think they'll be essential in helping me reach target as I need the aid of having to reveal my weight to someone as I'm so secretive about it! I was just super excited so couldn't wait until then and wanted any tips you have :) xxx
