1-800-Calorie Count

Well, not exactly; but this is as good or even better. Now you can send a text message requesting either calorie/nutritional info or requesting Weight Watcher's points for many popular menu items served at restaurant chains across the country. You'll get a text reply that will include calorie counts or points info. The picture to the left shows the points value of a Turkey sandwich from Subway.

To get calorie info, text the name of the restaurant and the menu item (example: Subway Turkey Breast Sand) to DIET1 (34381). To get WW points info, add either "pt" or "points" to your text message (example: pt Subway Turkey Breast Sand) and send to DIET 1 (34381)

Visit their website and try it out for yourself there before you try it on your phone if you'd like.

Finally a good reason to use my text message feature!
