WW~New Flex Plan

What do you girls think of the new flex plan? I had read on WW on-line that WW is doing this so there isn't more than a 2 pound a week weight loss (so they are raising the target number) since it isn't healthy to lose more than 2 pounds a week. I don't always hit my lowest number range but then again there are times that I eat out during the week and I don't log my points AND I don't follow it during the weekend.

Any thoughts?

I dont know if it will really make anyone lose weight any differently than they were before. Think about it this way..

If we have a daily points range that we document for a week and we weigh in at the end of the week, we have consumed a certain amount of points for the week regardless of whether or not we counted them individually every day.

I find to notice in myself that if I only have one bad meal a week, I still lose when I weigh in at the end of the week. Hence the 35 flex points. Whether we spread them out over 7 days or eat them all at once it wont matter. 35 points over a weeks time is not that much, but those extra points every day may be what keeps people (like myself) from not feeling deprived.

I am interested in seeing if point values of food have changed. I go to the meeting on sunday, I will find out then, the whole meeting is dedicated to the new program.

Imagin, please let me know what the meeting on Sunday tells you. I agree with it not changing the weight you lose overall and I eat more than one bad meal a week and still lose!

I hope it is better.. I heard a rumor at my meetinglast night that Pizza adn bacon are changing points.. i think Pizza is for the better.. i hope..
The good thing is that you do not have to eat the fles points.. they are there.. and the exercise points have to be used that day...
I am excited....anyone else?

I always found that whenever WW changed...I looked at the changes and adapted some of them...but I know that if I lost weight on the old plan...then I most likely would lose weight if I did it the same way...

I have not been following all week, I bet I gained like 3 lbs! There has been so much going on, but as of this coming Sunday I am getting back on track again. I worked hard to lose the weight I did, I dont want to gain it all back in half the time.
