Flexpoints

Can someone explain this to me?

I am doing weight watchers, but i dont go to meetins (just bought the materials and have been doing it on my own). I recently say teh advertisement for it it - and now saw it here.

Thanks girls!

you have a specific amount of points you can use per day depending on the weight.
then you have an extra 35 points that you can use throughout the week (or not if you so choose). once you use them they're gone though....
that way if you have one day where you're oging out to a party or something and you go over a little, it's ok and there's no need to stress.
it's been working for me so far, becuase psychologically i think it gives me more freedom!!
good luck!!

The latest version of WW gives you a set amount of points per day plus 35 FlexPoints per week.

You are supposed to eat your full set amount of points each day. These points do not carry over from day to day. Your 35 Flex Points can be used all in one day or portions can be used any day throughout the week. You can not carry them over from week to week.

I just started this plan on Tuesday but I think I am going to like it.

I joied two weeks ago. I have failed at the WW of thepast, but los 4 lbs. my first week on the program and used all of my flexpoints! I will weigh in again on Saturday, so w will see. I don't think I am losing as much this week- they say the first week you lose more because of water weight- either way he program is awesome- I don't feel as limited and actually feel like I can eat out and ENJOY it!

Can anyone type out the weight breakdowns? (For those of us that have the old program?)

Thanks!

Target Points
less than 150 lbs.......20
15 - 174 lbs..............22
175 - 199.................24
200 - 224.................26
225 - 249.................28
and so on

Their have supposedly been a lot of changes to the amount of points assigned to each food. I havent compared the old and new plans but the leader said to throw out any old point calculators. This could of course be just part of the WW marketing machine.

so the slider and calculator doesnt work anymore? - r they serious???
