Courtney B asked:


How do you count weight watchers points when cooking in bulk? We just started on weight watchers this week and I was wondering when cooking dinner how do you add your points up? For example: this weekend we wanted to make chili..do we add up the points for the whole dish and then divide it out? If so, how?

THANKS in advance!

Truth Hurts asked:


I have tried it several times before and have lost only a few pounds. I got discouraged quickly and gave up. Now I need to try something because the things I have done since have not worked out at all.
I figure Weight Watchers is the only diet that I can still pretty much eat whatever I want without actually having to give up stuff. I went to the meetings and then there were times when I did it alone for a few weeks without the meetings and that actually worked out better for me.
I’m curious as to other people who have joined Weight Watchers and how your experience was.

I am currently trying to lose weight and cannot afford to go to Weight Watchers, but I have heard about their point system. Can anyone tell me how to take my height, weight, BMI, ect and figure up how many points I should be eating daily? Please, only serious responses.

Weight Watchers Canada, the Canadian branch of the world famous weight loss giant Weight Watchers International has followed their parent company in their decision to do away with the coveted online Weight Watchers promotional code. These promotional codes used to be issued as special incentives and as part of promotional offers. In a bold move, Weight Watchers Canada has opted to cease issuing promotional codes to preferred customers and instead offer a web exclusive over 25% off coupon through its network of affiliate marketers.

The new Weight Watchers Canada coupon opens into a new “orphan” page on the WeightWatchers.ca website that is not available by any other means. There are no codes or passwords to enter – you just follow the link and save. Weight Watchers Canada claims that this new promotional method is easier to use and provides savings to more would-be customers. Under this new campaign Weight Watchers Canada is offering “over 25% off” when you sign up for their three month program. Here is a breakdown on cost comparisons:

Standard Monthly Plan

$21.95/month + $39.95 signup fee = $61.90 (for one month)

3 Month Savings Plan – Save over 25%

3 X $21.95/month + $39.95 signup fee = $105.80 – $26.80 (promotional savings) = $79.00 (for three months)

These coupons are readily available on the Internet but only through select Weight Watchers Canada affiliate sites. One such site is http://www.CanBuy.ca. The site’s owner David Cameron agrees that the new promotional coupon has been very successful, “We have seen a steady increase in our inbound traffic searching for the new Weight Watchers Canada coupon and a comparable drop in searches for the Weight Watchers Canada promotional code. The reaction to the offer has been great and it is wonderful to be able to help people save money and lose weight at the same time.”

Unfortunately, if you live in Canada and you are interested in losing weight you should act fast because like all good things, the days are numbered for this coupons campaign. But rest assured, Weight Watchers Canada will most likely continue offering great savings through affiliates like http://www.CanBuy.ca.
