...can you please tell me what edition your points books are? I'm just wondering if I need to upgrade mine or if I'd get away with using the ones I have from end of '05.
And does anyone know what the new deal is for this week yet? The first meeting free ended on Friday and I've read that there's a new deal this week but the website hasn't got it on there yet. I want to sign up but want to wait and see if it's free joining fee first! Thanks

I'm hainging out to see what it is as well Kirst. I am joinging up tomorrow regardless of the deal. Give them a call and see what it is. Then let me know as well please  . Liz was hoping to find registration free but she has packed them away in a box and is trying to find them for us for tomorrow.------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I use old points books. They are fine. I use them along with the little points calculator that you get week 4?. I'd say I use the calulator more than the books anyways.
Good luck! I hope you both get a good deal  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Last time I never made it to week 4  two little blue lines told me that I was NOT going to be losing weight for at least 9 months!
Cool, I wouldn't think they'd change too much, the new ones probably have more products in them etc. Yeah I'm going to be signing up tomorrow regardless too probably! |

The new ones have more products and also sometimes the points value change but shouldn't be by enough to make a huge difference. -------------

I got one of the point calculaters its small pink for about $16 it can caculate the points of any food with the nutritional value on the back. Really handy to have in your handbag when doing the grocery shopping. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

I haven't joined WW properly but am using a combination of my Dad's old WW stuff from the UK and some books I've borrowed & bought on TM all various versions and I lost 3.5kg in my 1st week and 1.5kg in my 2nd (then had a birthday and probably put it all on again  ) but it goes to show that you can still do WW without spending heaps of $$$s
Good luck Kirst  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

No they haven't put a new deal up on their website yet. I'm going to give them a call soon to see what they have offering. But regardless i'm going in today to join up. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Toni, that's awesome!! Yeah I don't like the thought of spending too much, but in my own mind, I like having someone to report my weight to (that someone not being a friend or husband who can easily sway me!). That, and the fact that I feel guilty paying a weekly meeting fee if I gain!  I just need a kick in the right direction as well hehe

When I get back from my holiday I'm going to kick my butt back into it big time! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Hey there,
When I joined up in 05 I used a voucher on a packet of ww museli bars. Do they still put vochers on the packets? Probably not or someone might have said. Also they might have a deal at the buggy walk on Thursday since they are one of the sponsors. ------------- Michelle http://lilypie.com">

| I phoned up this morning and its free registration so you just have to pay the $18 meeting fee. |

I was just coming to say that its free registration I just turned up and got it. So instead of paying registration I got the $30 starter pack. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I was going to head in this morning, but Ashlee (bless the wee doll!!!) gave her mummy a sleep in so I missed it! All for a good cause, I SO needed that extra hour of sleep.
I'm determined to get to a morning meeting, so it may have to be Saturday now. |

Don't know if this helps but my book 1 is green and is a square shape (the ones my mum have were white and more of a rectangle shape), so I think they have changed a bit. And they have the "core" plan stuff in them as well. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
