How To Follow Weight Watchers Points Plus In A Smart Points World & How To Use the iTrackBites App

[@patricialiberus1932]

I went to Points Plus program. I am on my 22nd day. I have been on different Weight Watchers programs 8 times. I lost and then regained. Points Plus is the best plan for me. I purchased a couple used books on Amazon because I gave almost every Weight Watchers books I had previously. But, I kept my calculator. I am 78 years old. I am living in a third world country.

[@paulcarlachapman628]

Interesting, thank you! I just canceled my current WW account and have decided to return to Points Plus. I own Weight Watchers books for counting Points Plus and also a couple of those cookbooks. I keep up with Points Plus in a small spiral notebook with a pencil, lol, but having the app would be helpful for when I'm not at home, i.e. eating out or at someone's house. I appreciate your video!

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Glad to hear it!

[@Libra1021]

I really wish with all the different changes ....WW would allow us to choose the one we like. PP and SP worked for me. This FS is not.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

I wish they did too

[@julesservantofjesus972]

Smart Points ruined me! Points plus worked ....

[@SailorMewtoo]

It's a diet company, literally all they care about is the money they profit from the people that try their system.

[@Brandi3905]

Artissia Reaves has anyone heard that WW is changing where you pick the program right for you?

[@tgholcombe]

Thank you so much!! This is the information I needed to go back to Points Plus.

[@susanh3602]

Glenda Holcombe Hi, have you been successful? I’m considering switching plans myself.

[@preden50]

Thank you. I also began in 2009, and I want to go back to points plus. You look great!

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Thanks!

[@tiptopmomma]

I am so glad I found you. I have been a lifetime member of Weight Watchers since 2004. I have seen many changes, but this Freestyle is not for me. After constantly gaining watch for the first time in over 8 years, I am going back to Points plus. I didn’t know how I was going to do it, but then I found your You Tube video. I will come back and let you know how it is going. YAY! Thank you.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Enjoy the journey!

[@giselefields4350]

Thank you for doing this video. I have done WW on and off for years. Points plus was my favourite but I don't remember how many points I get. I am 155lbs 5'2" and moderate activity.

[@earphbound720]

I can calculate this for you if you still need the info. I have an old calculator

[@helloeli7162]

Thank you so much for posting this. I'm trying to be more financially savvy with my money and this is definitely a great resource.

[@dominickvincent8976]

Thank you for this video. I lost over 80 pounds on Points Plus five years ago and stayed within my weight range since losing it. A couple times, I've gone to the very high end of my weight range or a couple pounds over, and when that happens, I go back on the Points Plus program until I'm back in my range. Like many others have said, I wish Weight Watchers would allow us to utilize the program that works best for each individual.

[@loricogsdale8931]

Great video - love your lippie color! Can you please share the brand and color of liner and lipstick you are wearing? Thanks!

[@earphbound720]

I loved this program. It worked so well for me.

[@simonemiranda5882]

Thanks for making this. I've been wanting to get back on weight watchers but it wasn't in the budget. I'm glad to see this. I started on smart points but now am intrigued with points plus.

Thanks, I just joined after 8 months of WW meetings. Lost 36 lbs. I am ready to use iTrackBites and save some money.Great video.

[@lorrainecray3965]

Hi from Australia, just thought you might like to know that iTrack Pro is $50.88 a year. And being in Australia I have to add all our products manually because all our brands are so different. Very time consuming before meals, getting to old I think 🤔 🤣😂🤦🏽‍♀️ I LOVE WW every since I was young, WW helped me from being overly obsess. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND GREAT EXPLANATIONS. KEEP UP YOUR GREAT INSPIRING VIDEOS. Stay HAPPY AND HEALTHY 💕

[@DivaandtheDivine]

I'm glad you found me too. I hope my content helps you on your journey.

[@catcookie2218]

This is so cool! I got to goal on the plan before point plus (turnaround?) and I'm struggling with freestyle. This is a godsend! Thank you so much!

[@catcookie2218]

Update: my first week going back in turnaround(classic points on the itrackbites) and after gaining and losing the same 4-5 pounds for close to 3 months, I'm down 3 pounds!

[@ambermoreland4315]

Thank you for this! I lost a good amount of weight on smart points. Then when WW switched to freestyle my weight loss came to a halt. I’m going to purchase the pro version of this app. Love you can choose your plan.

[@undercoverastrology]

I started with Lifesum 3 weeks ago. While I've lost 3 pounds and I think I've lost some inches too. I really want to do weight watchers again but I did not like the new freestyle program. When I plugged in my foods into the I track bites app, I got to see the points plus value of the 0 point foods. I know eggs were 2 points and 3 oz of chicken was 3 points. Where on freestyle they are 0 points. That is where I run into trouble because Myself and Others who were on PP Are now maintaining or even gaining on freestyle because of this! Thank you for sharing the information I am going to do I track bites pro now.

[@NothingOnMeIsFake]

Thank you!!! I have been struggling SO much since they changed plans and my leader is sweet but has basically said they can't do anything but tell us to use the new plan - which does NOT work for me. I have gotten so frustrated I lost all motivation and went into a 'f it' phase and gained back almost all the weight I'd lost. I am SO overjoyed to have a way to have the plan back that works for me! Thank you thank you thank you!

[@mrsmcisaac]

You are so helpful and adorablly cute!! Im really enjoying your videos thanks. Ive been not that thrilled with the new programs and have only lost 7 lbs in the 7 weeks so Im going to switch and see how I go. Thanks

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Thanks so much! However, I would NOT change plans if that is how fast you're losing. Losing an average of 1 lb a week is literally the IDEAL for long term, sustainable weight loss, which means it's going exactly as it needs to be. I would not change if I were you.

[@mrsmcisaac]

@@DivaandtheDivine Thanks for the advice and reply.! Thing is I lost most of it at the start and in the last 3 weeks have only lost 1 lb or 500 gm.

[@itecblogger]

I'm in the same boat and had such success with the PP plan. I just downloaded this App on my phone- thanks!

[@vickiescholl9453]

Thank you so much for the video. I am going back to Points Plus. I lost 51 pounds on it. When they changed bot Freestyle I can't get back to goal. This is perfect and saves a lot of money.

[@SaraMitchell09]

I wish the weight watchers app had a place to track water (other than adding it as a food).... I would love the visual of my water consumption to make sure I am hitting my goals.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

I agree.

[@23pointsaday18]

I'm with you--I miss that feature! We used to track water, healthy oils, vitamins and dairy too!

[@lyndajoyce6243]

It does have a place to track water, now.

[@grannydeb2887]

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! i Just downloaded I Track Bites and am excited to try!!

[@giobikefans]

I loved points plus. I reached my goal and lost 40 lbs. When they switched to SP I totally fell off, it just left me hungry constantly. Now I'm afraid to try FS, but if I can do PP on itrackbytes then I'm gonna give that a go again.

[@Jeffmacaroni1542]

After trying the rigid Keto/Low carb diet I'm going back to this diet, I have a Points plus calculator and lost weight on it before I got into Keto, WW Points plus gives me more food choices being I only eat beef and chicken nothing else, I love most all veggies and fruits. No eggs LOL. No fish, shellfish, No pork, game, organ meat, game nothing but beef and chicken, turkey is ok. Thanks for the info.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Keto and low carb is a hard no for me.

I am thinking of trying the ItrackBites app. Slowly losing on Freestyle, but not fast enough for me. So thanks for explaining this!

thanks for this information. Very helpful. I had to switch from WW flex, just staying the same after months of trying.

I am returning to the Points Plus program also to change up the weight loss. I downloaded the app for my phone and subscribed to the Pro version. My question: Can I also see me tracker online on the computer in addition to the phone? I can't find a log in section when I look online?

[@Spot4art]

Thank you so much! I hate Free Style but loved Smart Points! I am using the new app you are explaining. It is almost. The same as WW app.

That Itrackbites app is brilliant I refuse to pay for the meetings and online. I find WW’s works really well for me! I lost nearly a stone in 1 month on it but Ive gained weight since so now being on it, but I can tell i’ve lost weight now!

[@jenniferhill6731]

Thank you for this. Went back to PP in February.... Im loving it!!

[@DivaandtheDivine]

That's great!

[@kathyshrewsbury5042]

I'm sooooo beyond frustrated with Freestyle. Pulled out my old PP materials, and weigh-in booklets. Back then, I lost sometimes 2 or 3 pounds a week. I considered it slow when I was below a pound. On the FS program, I just bat the same pounds back & forth. It may be a phenomenal plan for maintenance, but for loss, it's not working for me. On PP boneless, skinless chicken breast was 1 pt per ounce and a cup of corn kernels was 4. That meant for a meal of chicken breast, corn, & 0 pt veggies, it would cost me approximately 10 points. That same meal on FS is now zero!!!!! No wonder this isn't working while I'm religiously following the plan. Thank you for this video. I have felt so alone!

[@lorilewis2625]

kathy shrewsbury same 5 pounds since Jan. I did the same things went back to points plus yesterday and realized I was overeating etc.

Hi. I’m in the Uk. I pay per month £12.99 for the app. When I get to goal I’ll still have to pay this. ITrackBites is cheaper per year. Will I still be able to point stuff because I think it is a more US based app. I also have a Apple Watch that I connect to the weight Watchers app. Can I still do this with iTrackBites pro version

[@MyFingChannel]

Could you do a follow-up video about the changes to I Track Bites? I hadn't used it in awhile (fell off the weight loss wagon) and I am trying to get back in to it, but I see there are different categories now... the "Bites" aren't there. Now it's got: Better Balance, Keeping Keto, Sugar Smart, Conquer Cravings, Carb Conscious, Calorie Command... Thanks a bunch!

[@DivaandtheDivine]

I absolutely can! That will hopefully be coming soon

[@melaniearsenault5780]

First let me say I really enjoy your videos!! So helpful and came just at the right time because I was getting so discouraged with Freestyle. I just made the switch over to Points Plus and got the Pro Version of ITrackBites. If my memory is correct I thought most fruits and Veggies were 0pts on Points Plus but my app is showing point values. Does yours?

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Most should be 0. If it isn't and it should be, you can click the little "this is a fruit or vegetable" button and it will 0 it out. Remember: corn, potatoes, avocados, and anything in syrup or with added sugar is NOT 0

[@pammettler830]

I’m wanting to do simply filling but WW no longer offers it on the app. I was told that trackbites offers something similar. I have the app, but it’s changed from what yours looks like. Any suggestions

[@susanh3602]

I’m happy that I found you! I lost 51 pounds on point plus and a bit of SP- Long story short- 4 years later I’m up 18.. I’m now using FS again , I’m losing but honestly I don’t feel so great. To switch o we again to PP I’m sure I’ll gain what I’ve lost but I’ll just keep at it. When I reach goal, how would I change the plan? I forget 🙄 Does iTrackbites recognize maintenance? Thanks for your help :)

[@DivaandtheDivine]

it does recognize maintenance, however I do recommend you start slow with maintenance points, as every body is different. All the details can be found in teh Facebook group "itrackbties participants"

Do the cookbooks have “normal” recipes, or are they weird and difficult? Thanks for all the great info.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

I think they’re pretty easy.

[@kristinelajoie9458]

Hi Bryannah (I'm sure I spelled your name wrong and I apologize. This is how we spell my granddaughter's). Can you please tell me if iTrackBites has a recipe builder? Also, did you happen to do a video on how to calculate points - for example: I have a box of SF cake mix and for my recipe I am only using 2 Tablespoons. How do I figure out how many points that 2 Tablespoons equals. Another example is I have a recipe for a meatloaf that calls for a whole box of Stove Top Stuffing mix. Would I just scan the box and if it is 4 points per serving, multiply that by the servings (4) and the entire box would be 16? I love your vlogs and I thank you in advance for your help.

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Oh my goodness I LOVE that spelling! How fun. Yes, there is a recipe builder, but you need the pro option in order to use it. As for the serving sizes, I do the math of the nutrition labels and plug that in to the calculator. So I figure out what one serving is, and then if I'm only using 1/2 a serving I'll divide all numbers by 2 and punch them in. Same goes for when I need to add an entire box cake mix to my recipe. The serving numbers are 1/10 of the box, so I multiply all macros by 10 and punch them into the calculator.

[@kristinelajoie9458]

@@DivaandtheDivine Thanks so much! Yes, I paid to have the Pro option. I just don't know where to navigate to the recipe builder.

[@dioneharjo8791]

Thanks for your videos! I recently joined iTrackBites from seeing your most recent vlog you posted on it (not this one); and I have the PRO it says it by my name and I paid for it, but I only get 22 bites a day and 35 weekly. In the video you said that everyone gets 49 weeklies, I am wondering if my app is working right. It charges me bites for my banana, which I thought (may be wrong, bc I did WWPP back in 2008) How many weeklies do you get and do bananas cost on your iTrackBites Bites Plus App? Thanks for answering and helping me decipher this, I started with the classic, bc I thought that was Plus, then I saw your video again and realized it wasn't, so I switched it but I am not sure it actually switched. Thanks for posting, I subscribe and follow you - you have been a source of inspiration and help to me.

[@dioneharjo8791]

Nevermind! I think I figured it out! I am on Pro and I see the bananas are zero and I think your weekly allowance is larger than mine, bc I have sedentary selected and you had light or moderate for activity level.

[@jazzminejackson9181]

Which plan reduces the points when you lose weight? Smart points?

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Yes. That’s how it works on all plans.

[@jaceyxo]

I recently switched to points plus with the itrackbites app. The thing I'm having issues with is the fact that it's mostly American points values. Everything says USDA, which leads me to believe it's all american. I'm constantly having to input items into the tracker. I don't mind but it's kind've a pain in the butt. I'm just really happy to have points plus back. It worked for me 4 years ago when I lost 60 pounds for my wedding. So thankful I was able to get the plan back. I even still have my handheld calculator which has been a blessing.

[@jaceyxo]

Should mention I'm from Canada eh! Lol

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Aren't most of the points values the same no matter what country you're in? I mean, chicken is chicken, right?

[@melissafeddersen6996]

I also started back in 2009 and lost almost 55lbs but have since gained back 15. Trying to loose it has been a disaster on freestyle- I’d say I’m maintaining as I fluctuate between 3 lbs every week. I’m going to try this and see how it goes thanks for the tips

[@DivaandtheDivine]

Yeah, I think Freestyle is a GREAT plan for maintaining weight, but I personally am having a hard time losing on it.

[@LissaxKristine]

I joined in January 2009, went from 176 to 152 on Momentum, then ran into some financial difficulties and ended up quitting WW and regaining the weight back. In 2010, I went from 185 pounds down to about 152 or 153 again. Again, life got in the way, and I gained it back. My diet has improved a LOT since 2009, but I also find that SmartPoints- especially freestyle messes up my relationship with food. Telling me that a fat, free, plain yogurt is 2 points and a full-fat one is 5 points is fine. I'm willing to spend the extra 3 points for a more satisfying snack. Now, however, the fat-free version is 0 points and the full-fat is EIGHT. That's just insulting. I understand how the SmartPoints system works to encourage people to pick fruit and water over Little Debbie snacks and Coca-Cola. However, my issue isn't finding substitutes for sugary snacks. My issue is that I enjoy eating real, whole foods and SmartPoints and Freestyle does still encourage more artificial sweeteners and other additives over whole foods in many ways (just look at RxBars and Quest Bars). I'm definitely leaning towards giving PointsPlus another try, but I'm not sure how to handle the fact that the database doesn't seem to have a way for me to track things like sweet potato or avocado by the gram.

I know other weight watcher plans have came out since they launched weight watchers points plus but I always go back to that because the other plans do not work for me! Some people think points plus is too restrictive,but I need that restriction to reset my eating! I know it’s a few years since this video but I hope you’re doing fine and having success at weight loss!

Is the itrackbites a free app

[@DivaandtheDivine]

It’s free to use the basic features, but you can upgrade to Pro to unlock everything the app has to offer

Love that the app is so cheap and works so well but I really can't get over the look that it has.. its sooo outdated looking! Wish they would fix that... I'm still playing $20 a month for WW because I can't use an app that looks like that.
