Does anyone know if there is good weight watchers software for the PDA -- something that tracks points?

Any WW members out there with suggestions?

Thanks!

I do not think you will find a program that is produced by Weight Watchers.. I am sure I read somewhere that they own the methodology and defend it to the death.

I do believe that someone somewhere wrote a program that worked along the same lines though. I am not one to use the program so if I look like there is a glazed look in my eye there probably is.

Try this site as a place to start. If I run across the program again I will make an effort to post it back here for you.

The sad truth here is that until Weight Watchers decides to release a program themselves, you won't see any good solutions offered, because they sue them into oblivion... :?

The best I've seen is a ListPro list that has a lot of food point values.

I have used a product that can be found here http://www.graphxsoftware.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabindex=2&tabid=3. It works great and can be adjusted to calculate very similar to WW Points.

I haven't used this actively for a while, but when I did I used Personal Health & Diet Manager (http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=332&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productType=2&platformId=2&productId=43756) by Twopeaks. It has the ability to track points values for foods.
