Guest guest Posted August 27, 2001 Report Share Posted August 27, 2001 -HI ! Tomi, I am Sherrie and new to this website...I like this and the following Barley, Potato and Amaranth Stew...I am also new to WW and have lost 20 lbs since June 15...and more to go....I know I can get these ingredients at the Garden Patch...a great organic natural store here... My question,as I don't know how to do it,is how do I figure the points for these two stews.... A friend copied the 1998 WW points diet booklet for me ...but I don't know how to figure the points myself for recipes..and I understand there is a new points system for 2001. I am hoping to have a car by the end of September...and then I want to start going to WW classes...to continue my dieting and being with others who are dieting too each week..
