I just joined Weight Watchers and my Points Values went through the roof and wouldn't it be too hard to follow Points Values?

Go to the meetings and ask for help in getting started. It's simple and easy once you get the directions. There's a calculation for the points you should aim at (mine is 22) depending on your current weight and then you write down the values for the things you eat. There's a calculator in the back of the book, a listing for the quantity per serving. Watch your serving size (measure or weigh your food) and write it down. It will take a few weeks to figure it all out, but you will start to lose weight. Add walking or other activities.
Most of us are eating a whole lot more than we think due to the size of portions.
