Help Please!

I need help please! My fiance and I have been talking about doing weight watchers. His momma has done the program and when she was on it, she lots almost 50 pounds. So, I have a couple of questions.

We have all her old paper work --to check the points of foods, calculate excersise, etc. What I need help with is answering a couple of questions, and maybe just a little advice. So, if you can help with any of these questions I'd really appreciate it.

Question 1: I get 24 points a day --Fiance gets 41 points per day. How exactly are we supposed to eat together if he has almost an additional 20 points! I know he is supposed to have "more" food than me, but that seems like a lot of extra. To be honest, I'm almost jealous!

Question 2: I read about the difference between the flex plan and the core plan. I think the flex plan would be the best to start with --making sure we actually count the calories of what we eat. My question is --does anyone have suggestions as to what made the individual programs work better for them?

Question 3: Anyone have recipes? I'd reall love to see some of them posted. Or, do you know a website that has lots of recipes added to it?

Question 4: Real life, or online subscription?

I'm sure I'll have more questions as the program goes on --we haven't actually started it yet, just starting to read about it now. I appreciate any and all help =)
