Has anyone out there taken the time to tally WW points for PC recipes? I found the old post with the downloaded file, but I was wondering if anyone had done any of the new recipes. You know what they say about recreating the wheel.... :)

have a great day,
Sandy
 
I am also curious.I have lost alot of weight on WW and it scares me now because all of the recipes I have tried are very high in calories. It's a fine line, maiking recipes that are ok, and on program and making recipes that are really good. I would love to find a way to make this work and still keep my weight off.I am going to try to figure the points out for my favorite recipes. I will share my results.
 
WW PointsIf you go to www.dwlz.com she has a listing of Pampered Chef recipes in ww points. Another consultant must have given them to her.

You may have to look thru the website to find it, but I saw it the other day.
 
Thank you so much. This has really been a worry for me. I never even thought of checking the points. It seems like everything I have made lately is very fatening. This will really help.
