Thats pretty much what weight watchers is but with my snack if i feel like a biscuit i can have one so long as I point it but I like it because I can have a bit of everything and my points per day is 24 so I have plenty and if I do not eat them all I can have a little extra tomorrow if I want to but I never do.
