    So unpopular opinion here but I LOVE the personal points plan. This is the first ww plan I’ve ever been on so I dont know what the purple plan or the blue plan or whatever was before, but this is the only thing that’s ever worked for me so I’m hoping they don’t change a thing! I’m down 7.4 pounds in three weeks. Idk what people are complaining about so much. I use most if not all of my weekly points and am still losing weight. Idk why people would have a problem with using weekly points. If they didn’t want us to use them they wouldn’t give them to us. I’m going to trust they know what they’re doing since I tried on my own for years and was unsuccessful.

    I agree and thanks for the shoutout 😊. Yes, we had more variety with the colors and a lot of people now aren't eating enough weeklies and I am guilty of that sometimes. I am doing OK on personal points and maintaining well at 22-25 points a day doing healthy habits (maintenance mode) so don't often need the weeklies (only on special occasions). Thanks for giving us really valuable information! Great vlog!

    Everything you read from ‘Simone’ is true. The same exact thing happened to me! I joined Friday and since I have done personal points I noticed that everything was wrong. And I could not take a quiz. So I reached out to customer service..which is a chat..and that’s when they told ME I was in a test program. I didn’t want to be in a test program so I kicked up some fuss. I love personal points. I love having choices. So I demanded to be out onto personal points. They were fairly rude about it and informed me they didn’t have to notify me OR ask my permission to put me in a test program. But I disagree and I was shocked this is how they’re operating now. Very shocked. Sooo it took 3 days but today at noon I was switched back to personal points.

    Points.
    It depends on what you start with because that is all you know.
    Calorie counting never worked for me in the past so I am not going to start.

    Bring back Purple I say! I lost over 80 pounds on purple and it was the first "diet" ever I was able to do that. It has helped me change my eating habits. I took a respite after 2 years and have gained back 6 pounds. Not good, but if not for WW I probably would have gained all of it back plus more (speaking in voice of experience). I just cannot get onboard with the personal points.... I have considered dropping out of WW because of the new system. I'm not being stubborn, it's just not for me. I have tried to give it a chance, I just don't like it. (insert temper tantrum here). I think they did better when there were choices of plans...i.e. Green, Blue, Purple. I know the free foods I was allowed to have on purple. I may just go rogue and go back on the purple plan by myself. Anyhooo, thank you for letting me vent here. I'm still hopeful they bring back the color plans, and keep the personal points for those who love it. Choices are always good. I just found your channel. Thank you! Love it!

    I think they will tweak the plan. I rarely eat my weeklies because of earning points for the non starchy vegetables. I’m maintaining doing this. I know there are some carbs that send the scale up for me, but I won’t give them up because that isn’t the way I want to spend the rest of my life eating.

I personally wish they’d change from personal points. Worst program ever. I’ll wait and see what turns up. But I am hoping they restore the lost weeklies from 42 x

    I agree it’s very limiting in a way… I mean I love having oatmeal as a zero food but do I want to eat it every single solitary morning ? nope- but everything else is points , so it’s limiting and leaves me wanting “other things but then the food is with points” so my breakfast if not oatmeal it’s points😭
    I also feel people don’t eat weeklies but WW wouldn’t put them there if it was going to hurt you- I would prefer more daily points and bigger variety of food for zero. Calorie counting results in me eating 1700 calories of anything junk or not which is bad , it’s a conundrum, Ugh.

    I've a short attention span so I watch videos in bits (sorry just can't sit through a video for long and that's everyone's not just yours, lol) and also why I hate virtual meetings. There's a change coming; it may just be another choice. Too many new members are experiencing a different program, so something is up. It may happen in November...it may not happen until next November! I kind of hate this time of year because everyone is trying to get the info first and doing the he said, she said, they said...... and then the little arguments start. But it's all good!! It'll happen when it happens. Personally I'm hoping for a choice...you either pick your own or go by a list!

    You make some excellent points. I did start double tracking last week to see if I could improve what I’m eating. I tend to eat a lot of the same things. I thought I had to eat only daily points and occasionally some weeklies because I’m 76 years old and not very active. I walk a mile a day pretty consistently but not a lot more. I was eating way too few calories or way too many calories alternately. I looked at my fat, carb, protein balance and found I need to adjust what I ate to get a better food balance. Three days and I’m down half a pound after holding on for months. I ate an additional 8-10 points those days.

    I’ve done ww since the original points program (off and on) and I was very shocked this is how they’re handling things this time. My free foods THEY assigned me were: fish and shellfish, fruit, chicken and turkey breast, eggs, beans and legumes, tofu, corn and popcorn, and nonfat yogurt and cottage cheese. My daily’s were 24 and weekly was 28. Also there wasn’t a separate spot for activity points..my weeklies just grew as I earned them. (Which I did kind of like) There was no extra points for veggie servings or water. No tracking of that separately.

      The water and veggie points are what people had a hard time being able to eat

      @@dishwithdee see I never got enough daily points before so being able to eliminate some of the free foods I rarely eat in exchange for more points has been better for me. I calorie tracked alongside points and would eat 700-800 calories when my points would be maxed out. That’s not enough.
