Evies - if I'm not mistaken, you are allowed 28 points per day. And if you need an online tool to get the points off of nutrition labels, if you don't yet have a slider or calculator, this is a great substitute: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/kreider/Points.htm Good luck with your loss!!!

I joined officially a few years ago and still have the books. I am doing it on my own with just the books. Works well for me.

225-249 lbs--28 pts
200-224lbs--26pts
175-199lbs--24pts
150-174lbs--22pts
less than 150lbs--20pts

Personally, the meetings make me stay on track.
I was trying to go it alone for a few months before I gae up the ghost and joined, and I'm so glad I did!

IF you are super disciplined or have a group that you are doing it with, you can do it online. My friend does online only and she's been very successful; of course, she's MUCH more OCD than I am but that's just me

GOOD LUCK!

LoL WineBrat... it DOES take some OCD to be able to do it on your own!!
