I would love to have a copy of the 1988 plan, also. It's the one where you checked off the little squares daily. When I first started it so long ago, it was a real effort to eat as much as they wanted you to because it was so much more than I was used to eating but I really lost the weight on it. I am sure that 67michelle is like me and just did not like the point system that followed.

Unhappy WW 1988 plan

I was on WW in 1989 with another student. I was given a high and low range which was great. I chose the low range and lost 20 lbs. in a month. I got use to measuring and weighing everything.
I tried the point system and never got beyond losing 6 lbs in a month. WW does not keep any of the past plans. Maybe that was a decision that was made when WW was sold.
