I LOVE this! The program is really simpler than it seems.
Eat Right
Be Active
Repeat!
NEW CHANGES FOR THIS VERSION
1. The points formula is now based on how nutritionally sound the food is ~ You will need to know protein, carbohydrates, fat and fiber content.
Their focus in on what they are now calling “Power Foods”. This is basically the same as Filling Foods and the CORE Foods. Think lean proteins, fruits/veggies, healthy whole grains, healthy fats, WHOLE FOODS, not processed, etc.
2. My FAVORITE one of all ~ ALL Fruits & vegetables are now 0 points (except starchy vegetables (potatoes, corn, peas) and avocado)!
3. New Points Ranges for everyone. I know they raised the ranges because points on foods went up, however, I also think there is a mental aspect. that having say 29 points versus 18 points makes you feel like you have more to eat.
Eat your NEW daily points target each day. However, listen to your body and only eat until satisfied, not stuffed. No your daily points don’t roll over to the next day if you don’t use them.
4. No more points sliders (they tried but it just is too much info & wouldn’t work).
5. Your daily points target is now given to you in ONE of TWO ways, it CANNOT be calculated online (unless you have e-tools) and it’s NOT in the books.To FIGURE OUT POINTS VALUES OF FOODS ~ you have 3 options.
1. Look them up in your pocket finder or Companion Books
2. Look them up online or using your phone application.
3. BEST OPTION, (Honestly) ~ Use your points calculator.
8. . Treating yourself is encouraged (We all now get 49 EXTRA Weekly Points Allowances)! No they don’t roll over between weeks if unused and you may not use them all each week.
Awesome, right?
9. The Good Health Guidelines have been updated to factor in power foods as well as limiting sodium along with sugar and alcohol.Just remember, the things that went up in points are the not so nutritional things so they will cost you more. However, you will offset them by saving points on POWER FOODS that are now lower in points..
A FEW FINAL THOUGHTS
* BUY NOW! If you are going to buy the Calculator and/or Kits, buy them NOW . The reason being is Weight Watchers got “price smart” in that they are rewarding current members with lower prices, but, taking advantage of the New Year’s Resolutioners and raising their prices each month.
