How do WW calculate that? There must be some mistake. 29 is ridiculously small.

Have you girls heard about the new plan? The healthy and filling days? I went back to WW today after a break and they told us all about it.. I'm really excited, it seems like a much better plan.

Bad news is that my pro points allowance is now 26, not 29.

I also put on 1lb if someone can update the main page please (not bad considering I'd been off the plan for about 2 months)

 

[Koromaru]

Yeah I've heard about it. I'm not sure if im interested tho

Do you do points? Or propoints?

If your doing points you get more because everything has points whereas propoints you get less points but you also get 'free' food that you dont have to point like, most fruit and veg and diet fizzy drinks.

Emma that's a great result after being off plan for couple of months

I've lost 5lb (over 2weeks) so total loss of 30lbs. Really hoping for another good week

Im not sure if I like the idea of the new plan, I may over indulge lol

I think 26 is optional from what i'v read? so you could still use 29.

I couldnt stay for my meeting coz i had to take H with me, she quickly mentioned it but didnt really explain.

Could you explain please?? X

remember ladies, the more you weigh and the more you have to lose the higher the amount of points you have. if someone is on 29 points it is probably coz they have less to lose. I am on 33pp, the lady at work who is doing it is around 11 stones and she is on 29pp.

my propoints find is ASDA instant mash cheese and brocoli snackpots- only 1point per pot and they are really filling. A typical menu for me at the mo is pineapple cottage cheese on toast for breakfast with a couple of pieces of fruit, mash snackpot at lunch with fruit and yoghurt and then dinner. Snacking on fruit in between too.

Yep, I think I've used up most of my weekly points. This is the last day of my week though. But it was tough. Basically having to re-learn how to eat again. Breaking bad habits and what have you. Even harder because I am not at work at the moment. I'm off work for an injury(which has made it difficult for exercise) I realize it may take me a week or 2 to figure out whats going to work for me and teach my body to crave the good stuff.

Basically with the new plan you can follow the pro points plan as normal or if you can't track for a day or whatever you can have a healthy and filling day. All of the healthy and filling foods are marked in green in the books and anything from the list you can have on a healthy and filling day in any amount, but anything not on the list you have to take from your weeklies. So basically you can have as much as you want of it, as long as it's on the list. You can do it for one day and then track the rest of the week, or you can do it every day, it doesn't matter. The only condition is that you have to have (I think) 2 tablespoons of oil a day - so you should have 2 cooked meals. I think it's amazing because certain meals I make like vegetarian cottage pie are quite high (13 points and I always want seconds!) whereas on this it would be free I think. It sounds great to me but I think I'd have to meal plan for those days.

Thanks Jellycat, great loss!

Oh and daniellek my leader said it was optional but I use the iPhone app and annoyingly it has adjusted my allowance and I can't see a way of changing it which is making it difficult!

 

[TTCinBC]

Hum, that doesn't sound so bad. Will need to see if I can find this list. What book is it it?

I weight 172 pounds and only have 29 points. It doesn't make sense that I'd have the same amount that someone who weights 11 stones (154 pounds)

 

[TTCinBC]

Wow, I just sat down and added everything up for yesterday(my really bad day) and I did use a fair amount of weekly points, but a lot less then I thought I did. So I'm at least happy with that!!

The points, well my mom was 30lbs less then me and she got 29 and I have 38. I guess it just depends on the weight bracket your in is all. I think the idea is, the less you weight, the less you need to sustain yourself energy wise? Don't know, just a theory

You have to do it on the proper website which is a pain!

I was buying weight watchers hot choc at 1pp perserving. Asda good for u hot choc is also 1pp per serving ALSO asdas own (in a brown tub) is 0pp but iv not tried this yet.

 

[Koromaru]

Oh man I've put on 1 pound instead of losing weight

 

[Jellycat]

Daniellek will have to check out the Asda hot choc if 0pp as I find diet hot choc great when I'm looking for a choc fix especially as the colder weather is coming !

 

[TTCinBC]

Well I had my first weight in tonight, and even though I had what i consider a bad day this past week, I managed to loose 2.8lbs. So I'm happy with that I still need to be added to the front page please?

 

[Kimboowee]

I've lost 2.5lbs in the past 2 weeks - and 20.5 inches in the last 9 weeks!

I'm definitely loosing slowly, but really toning up as I go along

 

[TTCinBC]

That's awesome Kim! Wow, those inches! That's great! I didn't think until today to take starting measurements. May have to pop over to my sisters and have her to that for me.
