Do you count condiments on weight watchers?
I have started Weight Watchers once again...but have noticed that some people on the plan do not count items like margerine, mustard or ketchup...
What condiments do you not count and still lose?

I think a tablespoon of ketchup is 0, but 1/4 cup is 1.
FF Miracle Whip is 4 T for 1 Point, so I usually count my 1 T as 0.
I don't count mustard ...
There's a list of free condiments in the Week One Eating Right booklet.

I buy this low sugar ketchup. It tastes the same. Technically anything under 40 calories is 0 points, but this makes me nervous. I let one point count for the entire day's condiments unless I only had one and then I don't count it. For example, I would count one for the entire day for the ketchup that I had with fries, sweet and sour sauce with and egg roll, and lite mayo on my sandwich.

I don't count them, but I also don't get carried away using them either. But I don't "plan" to use my weekly points, and in the last year, I rarely used any, so I figure that those weekly points will cover things like condiments....and if I underestimate points on something...stuff like that. I think every person "fudges" a little in some way. The trick is....if you fudge in this way and I fudge in that way, and someone else fudges completely differently, you just have to know that you can't combine all 3 people's "fudges", or you'll end up going completely off the plan.
When I first started WW a year ago, I was still using sugar in my coffee, along with powdered creamer, and I counted it 1 point. But as soon as I weened myself off the sugar and onto Equal, I stopped counting it, even though I still use powdered creamer. I don't use that much....and like I said earlier, I use my weekly points to cover things like that.
