How ironic I used eggs as an example??!! Who the heck can afford them anymore?? 🤦♀🤷♀🤣 Comment below on any tips or tricks you have found in the app! 😊
I have 5 dozen in my fridge, it’s like I’m a ‘millionaire’ lol! (We have chickens)
@@theramblincrafter Ohhh, lucky you!! I grew up in a farming family and I miss all that soooo much!!
Fund someone who raises chickens and get them there.they are usually cheaper .
@@mishapraisesfavoritecakede8470 My niece used to raise the but she moved and doesn't raise them anymore. Luckily our eggs have come down now since this video. :)
You amazed me with the multi-track AND the ability to swipe for tracking and deleting! Holy cow! Thx so much!
So easy, huh?? Thanks Barb!
Thank you so much for this video..I was so confused until i watched your channel I just joined WW again after 25 years ! You explain things so easy and your videos give so many ideas! Again Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!! I'm glad it was helpful. I appreciate your kind words!!😊😊
Thank you SO much for this video! I had been struggling with trying to figure out this app, your examples were super helpful!
Thank you! So glad it was helpful! 😊
Oh, my goodness! I just rejoined after moving to a fabulous over 55 community 6 years ago. We go out to eat a lot and almost every meeting or activity has snacks and wine! WW has changed so much. Thanks to this wonderful video I found “lists” and amazingly, many of the foods I had marked form years ago are still there! I’ve been driving myself nuts searching and not finding my old tried and true choices. Thanks SO much!
Thanks so much, Mary! I'm so glad they are back to this program. I am so motivated!! Let's do this, my friend! :)
My update at almost one week: I am still investigating and still finding old saved items….thanks again, so much, for all of this!
Seriously!!! I learned so much from this- I had the app for over a year! Thank you thank you!!
Awesome!! I'm so glad you got value out of it! Thanks Stephanie! :)
I thought I knew how to use the app but I sure learned a LOT from this video. Thank you so much. I especially loved the slide to add & slide to delete and the restaurant list.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks Lisa!! :)
Thanks so much for walking through the app! It’s easier than I anticipated!
You're welcome. Thanks so much for watching!
This video has helped me so much, I’m like the others & didn’t know how to multi track. That’s a game changer for sure!!
So, thank you!!! I love your videos, so of course I just had to subscribe!! Thank you!!!
I'm so glad it was helpful. The multi tracking makes it sooo much quicker! I'm so glad you're loving my videos, and THANK YOU so much for subscribing!! 💞
This was very thoughtful for you to do. This was super helpful! Ty!
So glad it was helpful! Thanks so much! :)
WOW I had no clue the app did that much, I usually go online cause 1/2 the time I can't get something I'm doing work, this has opened my eyes. Thanks so much I appreciate it!
I'm glad you learned some things from it. Thanks so much, Lynne! :)
I learned so much from your video. I did not know you could multi-track. Now I can put a recipe in. Thank you so much for this video! I would love to see a video on other features like you were mentioned at the end of your video.
So glad it was helpful! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much! This was very helpful. I was confused on how to create recipes the correct way. I’m going to have to explore the other features of the app that I had no clue about until you told me 😊
I'm so glad it was helpful!! 😊😊
I’ve just started WW and your video was very helpful. Thanks!!!

You're welcome. Thanks for watching! :)
I just started today 🎉thank you for this video! ❤
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I gained a pound my first week!! Sticking to it!
Good for you for sticking with it. That number on the scale is not linear. There are so many things factored into it! Go with how you're feeling!
Thank you for your time. I did learn alot. I joined but got overwhelmed by the app. I can't seem to get on just 1 day!
It looks so confusing seeing all the foods I added! Guess I will try again!
It is definitely overwhelming at first, but i promise, after a while, it becomes second nature. Just take one day at a time. :)
Thanks so much!!
You're welcome, Mandy! Thanks for watching! :)
Thank you! I didn’t know how to do recipes. Question: Today I ate out and had Grilled chicken with spinach on a small bed of spaghetti w/marinara. I only ate half of it. I’m sure it was cooked in olive oil, garlic. Do I just estimate each item as if I made it at home?
That's what I usually do. If the restaurant or item I get at a restaurant isn't listed in the WW app, I just do my best to estimate, and I usually add a few extra points for the "just in case" butter they may use, etc. Most importantly, I try not to worry about a night of eating out. It's important to go out and enjoy company, so I just do my best at estimating and move on. :)
Thank you
Thanks for watching! 😊
We REALLY needed to know how to quickly bring up FAVORITES and this video did not show how to add to or access a favorites list which we so need to use for ease of often chosen foods! HELPO please!
You know, I'm not even sure of how to pull up favorites. I'll have to look at the app and see if I can find it. I don't usually mark anything as favorites. However, usually for things that I track a lot, those just always show up in my recents as soon as I start typing it. I'll play around with the app and see what I can find.
just started today. Added item to breakfast, but now I have 6 times more than I had. How can I cancel it and put in the right amount? Thank you! :)
Hi there! You can just click on the food item and then change the number of servings you had. Or you can always delete the entry and input it again if that's easier for you. Hope that helps! :)
If I’ve found a recipe that has all the nutritional information where do I put that information to find the points values
You would need to create the recipe in the WW app. If you were to use the food calculator, it won't take into account any of the zero point ingredients. So you can just build the recipe in the app one time, and it will be there the next time you make it.
How do i know how much a serving size is if I’m making chili for example?
It really comes out to how much you end up with. Usually the first time I make something, I just weigh it all out after and determine how many servings I want to make it and then that determines the number of servings. Once you weigh (or measure) the entire thing the first time, then you usually get the same each time after that.
TFS🤗
🤗 Thanks for watching!
I can’t find my scanned foods anywhere. I’ve tried all of the places they usually are listed. Any ideas?
I don't think I have a list of scanned foods per se, but I do have recents. If your scanned foods aren't in there, you may want to call WW and see if they can help you. You might need an update of your app or something.
How do you take out points once you put them in the app?
You should be able to just click on the item and click remove. I believe if you hold it down it does the same thing as well.
I learn something new - Multi Track button. Thanks.
Glad you learned something new, Cindy! :)
Serious Question: What cities are having trouble getting eggs? I’m 25 minutes outside of Detroit, and you every store has every type/carton of eggs in abundance.
Our area is finally getting back to normal here in Florida. We had very limited quantities at very expensive prices for a while, but things are starting to go back to normal. The prices are finally starting to come down.
@@PlanningUsHealthy We are finally getting back to normal in California.
@@cariwhite3254 We are too thankfully!! I actually just left Aldi and only paid $1.18 for a dozen!! I was shocked!!
Is there any place I can print the zero
Point foods from?
I haven't found a place from the app, but I'm sure there's probably a list online somewhere if you Google it. I'll keep an eye out and let you know if I find something.
This was very helpful! Thank you. Do you have a link for your Bacon, Cheeseburger Meatloaf recipe? I got all the ingredients. Im sure I can figure it out but the recipe would be nice. Unless you have it somewhere and I missed it.
Thanks so much!! I just did a search on my channel and sure enough, I did a Cook with Me video for that one. You can find the video here: ua-cam.com/video/D6QgWWev7uo/v-deo.html and in the description box of that video is a link to the original recipe. 😊 I need to make that one again!!
How did you get the microphone on the app. Mine doesn’t show where it says “search food to track”
Hmm..not sure. I have it for Google too. Maybe you have to allow the option in the phone settings in order for it to work in apps (?)
@@PlanningUsHealthy I will check that out. Thank you.
How do you calculate how many points you are allowed daily?
When you sign up and fill out your info, it will let you know. It asks a bunch of questions and then gives your your daily and weekly allotment.
I’m just curious what’s the list of zero point food?
It's a list of foods WW has that we don't necessarily have to track...lean meats, eggs, fruits (unless you're diabetic), veggies, beans, nonfat yogurt....things like that.
How long have you been on ww and how much have you lost?
Hi there! WW has been a good part of my life, but over the last couple of years, my whole mindset has changed from weight loss to health. So, my story is a bit of a long one. So here it goes. LOL I lost 93 pounds on Weight Watchers and became a lifetime member back in 2005. However, it was about weight loss and not health then. I restricted myself and overexercised and didn't learn anything. In 2019, my husband and I joined online. He lost 70 pounds and has maintained it ever since. I lost about 50 and then when Covid hit, things were kind of on hold as far as weight loss. I then went through a couple years of "experiences", I guess you could say - trying to work with my doctors and dietician about what was best for me (I suffer from ulcerative colitis, so that can sometimes be difficult to balance the healthier options) - learning about intuitive eating, etc. So, this year in January, I put my app back in lose mode instead of maintain, but I'm choosing to just shoot for 1/2 pound per week as that's what works best for me individually. I try to focus on health now rather than weight (which has made a huge positive impact on my bloodwork). Plus I go through periods of time where I choose to just maintain rather than be in weight loss mode. I look at WW as not just for weight loss but a way to maintain and not gain my previous weight back, which has worked! I've really learned a lot that it's more about lifestyle changes for me. I just don't want to be at a point where the scale defines me. Sorry that was so long, but it's so hard to answer that question without going into everything. Hope that was helpful! :)
Could unsweetened tea be counted as water?
I saw an article from Weight Watchers one time that said you can count that as water. But I'm not sure how old the article is. I would think it still counts though.
Ancho salmon at chilis…is that the meal or just the fish and then you have to add the sides separately? How do you count that meal?
I count it as just the salmon with the sauce. I get broccoli on the side (0) and then I count the seasoned rice as 4. So, I track the whole dinner as 11 points.
@@PlanningUsHealthy still not bad for a restaurant meal. Thank you.
@@barbpage8235 Agree!! Sometimes I'll even add a side house salad.
Isn’t one of the saddest things to see watching your daily points, for example, drop from 23 to 17?😢
That would definitely be sad! I haven't experienced that yet.
Thanks for the value information. Have a great day.
You're welcome! Thanks so much for watching! 😊
