This is a great book for those who want to use the past Weight Watchers Program. It is complete with daily food amounts, food lists, menus, and recipes. I use it like a Bible.

The only thing it is missing is a food journal but I types one up on my computer and now my program is complete.

This book is great for those who want to use the old Weight Watchers program.

I love it! It is complete with program guidelines, food lists, menus and recipes.

Highly recommended.

Before going on Weight Watchers and starting with this cookbook, I truly thought delicious food had to be complicated.

The recipes in here totally turned my thinking around. I now realize that little needs to be done to any food item to really enhance it. The soups in this are excellent, the protein dishes delicious (meat/fish/beans), the vegetables great.

A subsequent Weight Watchers cookbook was good, too, but couldn't hold a candle to this one!

I got this book on a whim from the library...trying to come up with a food plan to help me loose weight. After going by this book for two months, I ordered my own copy. Maybe it was a number of factors, (metabolism, genetics, etc.) but I lost weight, and kept it off, by using this book. At first I used the book when I could not exercise, but I lost noticeable weight in two week. Then, when I incorporated jogging while using this book, the weight flew off! I only gained the weight back after giving birth to kids. After the first kid, I used this book, and it came off. I now have kid number two and keep trying to go by this book, only to have "motherhood" and work interrupt me.

Most of the foods are filling and the menu is diversified... you get steak and baked potato at times, not to mention puddings, parfaits, monkey bread, etc. I don't call it a diet, when I go by this book. I call it a regime. My copy is so tattered. I have to buy a new one before too long. I hope there will always be copies available.

This book is great. It really spells out everything and makes it simple! It has meal suggestions and realistic recipes for everyones tastes

Weight Watchers Quick Success Program Cookbook (Plume)
This book is EXACTLY what you are looking for if you are trying to do the old weight watchers exchange program. Don't be fooled by the word "COOKBOOK" in the title as this book includes the quick success program as well and explains in full detail the information needed to follow the exchange plan. For example, the book explains the different food exchange categories, how many of each category is allowed daily, meal menus, full lists detailing the equivalency of one exchange for each food item, and recipes for foods that are healthy and keep you on program. I am thrilled I finally found a book with HOW to do the program!

I was not at all disappointed in this book, and it was everything it was advertised to be. I was happy to find this one on Amazon, and it was a very resonable price.

While this is a great book in explaining the Weight Watchers point exchanges program, the recipes leave a lot to be desired. I'd like more simple menus - more common ingredients. It was okay but disappointing.

Book I had before and needed to replace it. The content is excellent. The quality of the book itself was not great.

This was a very good cookbook. But believe it or not we use less ingriedients now. But it was good to see how things have changed. Useful recipes still.
