Yeah some of us need the accountability of a weekly weigh-in and meeting - like ME!
I have done it at home before with just the books. I would suggest you set up a weekly at home weigh in so that you have a schedule. Also pre-planning meals and menus helped me a lot.
Using on-line support here is great too and there a lot of recipes in our WW forum as well as the recipes on the 3fc page show the points values.
I also find the WW magazine very helpful too.
Good luck with your plan!
