Horsey, always read the nutrition label on food products. That'll give you accurate information instead of the raw estimates that're in the WW materials (which can throw you off by several points if your product is different). If you're buying it in bulk, you can check to see whether there's nutrition info posted over the bins; also, some stores will provide nutrition info on their bulk products if asked.
My brand of couscous is not whole-grain, and it's 2 points per half cup when cooked (that's about 1/6 cup dry). Whole-grain has more fiber and could be lower.
Man, now I'm in the mood for some of the stuff. A half-cup of it is so filling, unlike most pasta (does anyone else still find it hard to eat only a cup of prepared pasta?).
