I think my biggest concern is how to look up points in the book and use the little slide calculator on each and every item in a recipe. I love to cook, but I like trying different recipes -- a LOT. Last time I joined WW, I bought all their books, so it was a lot easier; I didn't have to calculate exchanges, they were already calculated for me. But with my own recipes, how the heck do I look up each ingredient's points? Oy..... I'm determined not to buy another moving box full of cookbooks!
Yes, you're absolutely right about not thinking of WW as a diet or temporary thing. Since I lost all my weight in 1980, I've gained it all back -- and MORE -- in the past 25 years. Had I stuck with WW, that wouldn't have happened, at least not all of it.
