Weightwatchers 2022

[bonfireheart]

Signed up last night as they're doing a special offer. Had a bit of a play around with the app and seems simple enough to use. Might treat myself to a fitbit for my birthday in a few weeks so I can link up to track sleep, exercise etc. I like that the app has exercise videos. Also like that I can meal plan simply and it creates a shopping list for me.

I am 41, I weigh 68kg, am 5ft2. Have a family history of diabetes, heart issues etc that I want to avoid. WFH has made me unfit, rarely do any steps, gyms closing over lockdown and I haven't found thr motivation to go back. Was in a great habit of getting to DD school early at pick up time and walking around the block with my headphones on, then got a promotion and my calendar is back to back to back video calls 😶 DD wants to exercise too, so plan is to do some fun YouTube workouts together in the evenings.

Not sure today was a good day to start as it's NYE. Had 1 and half weetabix this morning. Taking DD out for a late lunch. And have a noodle salad ready for this evening. Going to finish my meal plan and then do a big online shop tonight. Looking forward to week 1 :)

I'll get it now.....

See if that works... I'll try another way of not.. .

Thank you! Yes it looks like thats worked. Im likely to sign up on friday. Its a lot to get my head round to start but fingers crossed...

If you have your starting point, then it becomes very achievable hope all goes well x

Can someone offer me some advice please. I'm desperate. I'm a new member (took advantage of a join up offer and have the app). Theres no way I can get to actuaL classes yet so thought this would be ok. I have my points allowance and free points list but have no idea how the app or actual diet works and thinking I may now have wasted a chunk of money joining.
From what I can make out if I stick to point free food I'm good. But I cant work out how to use the other points or what foods point value is and I don't want to only eat the ready meals as cook from scratch alot. Can any one please help explain the basic principles as been on it a week and have no idea how to stick to it unless I eat chicken breast and veg 😁😁😁

Have a look on the app. There are virtual classes and classes set up for newbies that you can access. There is also a newbie forum in the WW community bit. There's a lot of info on the app and it takes a while to get to grips with it. I found it helpful at first just to sit and have a play with it, see what's on there.

This is what I have found with WW in the past. I just don’t find it user friendly. I need recipes.

I'm not sure if I'm being stupid as I'm really struggling. I'm ok with cooking from scratch even without a recipie but I don't know how it works. How can I calculate the point value of meals. I really don't understand it.

The app makes no sense to me. It just tells me my daily allowance and my free food.

@ALittleBitConfused1 is this the landing page you get?

I gave up when the current version of the app/ program came in as it is impenetrable.
It is changing again some as it hasn't been popular.
It used to be easier to cook from scratch and you could build in recipes and points which made things easier.

There is a recipe builder on the app. Just type in what you have used and it calculates the points for you

Here you go.. it's 3 months free at the moment.
