[@cljackson7130]

(Member) I'm happy about getting rewarded for "good behavior." It will motivate me to do better. Thank you for sharing this.🌻

[@Emmy-2]

In in Australia you can get avocado as a zero point food. It’s asks you to pick 2 items out of potatoes, corn, avocado, oats, whole grains and the two that you choose will be zero points

[@lunarosa6624]

That sounds sooo good! I would definitely pick potatoes and avocado or corn 🤔😂

[@planthungry]

this isn't gonna work for me. I'm gonna have to stick with purple and just track on my own. I wish I had known they were changing everything before I signed up for 6 months because it will be me paying for 6 months and not being able to use the app at all. Bummed.

[@elcee72b75]

I’m a current lifetime member having FINALLY reached my goal weight February 1st of 2021. As they say, there is no finish line. I work at it every day and always will. I am very anxious for a new perspective. Thank you for sharing!!!!

[@phylliscrane9175]

It kinda scary to me, I’m type 2 diabetic, but I like my zero points foods. It’s what keeps me going and I do like to eat a ice cream cone occasionally.

[@elcee72b75]

@@phylliscrane9175 from my nosing around I gather we will be choosing our zero points foods. At least some of them based on our quiz answers and preferences. Not exactly sure what all that entails but I like the sound of it. It’s also kind of sounding like the more zero point foods we will pick means the fewer daily points we will have to fool around with. We shall see. I’m so excited for the 8th to get here!!!! Best wishes!

[@janicecraig_313]

I’m glad to see WW working on a positive reward system for including points for veggies, h20 and exercise

[@sharon1129]

I'm in Australia and on day 3 of the new PersonalPoints. The reaction over here is love it, hate it, leaving, swearing, embracing, learning curve. But WW is very supportive in Connect with questions, and there are Zoom meetings galore where you can ask questions. My reaction: I am very happy with my particular PP (I was on Purple and this is very similar for me) and am learning, but think in a few weeks it will be all coming naturally. Can't say enough about how much WW is there to help with the changes.

[@TheHolyMess]

This is such helpful feedback as someone who is using the plan. Thanks for sharing that! It's really great to hear how WW is being so supportive.

[@sharisstampinstudio9286]

I’m currently on purple too and have done very well. If they only give me one starch, I will most likely leave and do the purple plan on my own. (I am not diabetic) The “good carbs” that are 0 on purple keep me from reaching for the bad carbs. I’m disappointed.

[@chrisscinta1973]

I found purple was the best plan I ever did. After 1.5 years of “ maintaining” on freestyle and blue, I found purple to be the easiest to track and the most satisfying. Lost 12 pounds in 3 months. I hope I can do something similar to purple!!

[@sharon1129]

@@chrisscinta1973 Yep I agree. I love Purple and I'm really happy because I'm doing Purple with a few minor changes. Select that you don't want to have sweets and salty snacks and alcohol. Pick your starchy choices, and your protein on what you eat most days and go from there. I give my PP (so similar to Purple) a 10/10. You can go back and redo the quiz over and over again so if you're not happy and do it until it suits you.

[@chrisscinta1973]

@@sharon1129 thanks. I was hoping to hear that. I’m just in love with purple, never ate so good, so satisfied and easy to follow. In addition it forces you to follow serving sizes on those starchy choices and whole grains. They are so filling it’s easy! I never have a problem going out to eat because baked potatoes are almost always on the menu. I’m gonna follow your advice ❤️

[@jld2075]

Member of WW. I’m excited and ready for the change. It sounds like tracking of food, water, & exercise will be crucial to use points or gain points. I’m trying to eat as a pescatarian and I hope that WW will remember that I don’t eat meat and stop offering recipes with meat. Also my husband is type II diabetic. Since I need to cook for him too, what would be a good way to get recipes low in carbs.? Sara, I enjoy following you with The Holy Mess, and we joined you for the WFPB challenge this past Oct. 25. I want to continue eating more vegetables and fruit. My husband was a good sport, but missed his meat. I am looking forward to working with you and WW.

[@monaleescott4203]

The diabetic option is very important to me as I was diagnosed at the beginning of this year. I’m looking forward the new changes in 2022.

[@tamibegley5363]

This is going to be a mess for households with multiple people on the diet to plan meals. Each meal is different points for each of us now.

[@PASwiftUTube]

Good point. Didn’t think of that.

[@mdketzer]

Ex WW now doing my own low carb. Congratulations on your weight loss and the maintenance for over 20 years! My issue with WW or any point or bite program is the points never line up with the amount of calories you should to consume. Even counting my free foods my calories are way under 1000 calories if I only eat my allotted points.

[@patchesneshell1388]

I had the same issue. I just count calories and have lost and maintained the loss. I have 1 meal a week I don't count.

[@CherylKasson]

Member of WW for many years. I have lost weight on all the WW food programs over the years, and I have been most successful with Freestyle and Blue. I am excited to see a new plan that emphasizes health and personalized eating.

[@CherylKasson]

And I am also excited that I may be able to accommodate my plan better for my numerous food sensitivities. I also get lots of exercise, and I am glad that that will count even more.

[@kathykeenan3989]

I am a member. Thanks for the information. I have tracked my zero points veg and fruits. I am glad they are going back to some of old habits.

[@michellezerber]

Current lifetime member since 2003. I HAD lost 235 and was well below goal, until 18 months ago I started having medical issues. I'm up approximately 30 pounds. I can not wait for the new plan to start! Don't you think its odd, that WW is a US company and the new stuff starts in Australia and NZ first? I do. They have better frozen meals and snacks better than we do as well from what I was shown by an Australian friend of mine.

[@kimmiepigs7422]

I totally agree! WW was started by an American, and the company should do things here FIRST. I used to subscribe to the UK magazine, and they offer some fabulous looking products that we don't have.

[@michellezerber]

@@kimmiepigs7422 that is a good example. They don't even publish the magazine here in the US anymore.

[@djcalderwood8274]

Member, love your presentation Sarah!

[@CherylKasson]

I am used to recreating recipes because of my food sensitivities. I usually have to substitute one or more ingredients, and that often changes the points.

[@emilycall1852]

[@YorkieUniverse1]

I have mixed feelings about this. It's been working for me so I don't want to fix what isn't broken. I have lost over 30 pounds in 5 months but have a long way to go. But it does sound like some good changes coming to help us get even healthier so I'm open to it.

[@kimmozdzen3226]

member Oooh, liking the idea of getting points for eating veggies. It will be a mind game that will definitely work. I will much rather have a veggie over fruit if it gets me extra points, but then I'll be fuller, so I may not want to eat the points.

[@daleksrcute9945]

I’m excited about the new diabetic plan, I know they originally put fruit as zero because back in the day people were choosing skinny cows and fiber one bars over a banana since they were 2 points. So they wanted to encourage eating fruit and that was a way to do it. However I need to be mindful so it makes more sense to count points for a banana or bread

[@decoupagenails3567]

Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I'm a member...I have reservations about the new rollout but I feel that it is due to WW starting the new program in Australia and not the US at the same time. It creates much confusion.

That being said I am excited with the new plan. I am currently on Blue plan 💙. We'll see. I eat at least 3 fruit servings a day so I hope they remain zero. This my motivate me to get back on track.

Super helpful information! Thank you for sharing so much detail. I’ve been on WW many times over my life and most recently I’ve been on the green plan since early July. I’m a glass-half-full person and am looking forward to the change - and I’m an adult who can decide what I will eat. 😀

[@dandy6196]

I am actually really excited about this. I was on WW 15-16 years ago and lost 40 pounds. I kept it off for a really long time. I’m back now with a gain (not all) but I’ve struggled with the freedom. I need some fruit to have points! It did on my old plan and I need that limit. It sounds more like the points from back then. I’m looking forward to it!

[@StrumforChrist]

I'm a current life time member. Lost my weight doing blue and have maintained on purple. I am a person that usually doesn't like change and appreciate you and our members that are on the new plan sharing insight into what's coming. While I like my zero foods, it does make sense that eating a lot of zero point foods just bc they a zero points needs some tracking. I also believe the push to track everything honestly to gain some points from specific things is a good encouragement to keep with tracking. While I am pretty good about tracking daily, I have my days when I'm lax. Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.

[@lisamounts858]

I’m Lifetime since Jan. 2019. I have tracked just about every day of my journey I am pretty obsessive about it but I do not track zero point foods so that’s going to be a little adjustment for me but if I can get extra points for those vegetables I will be eating them more often and I will be drinking and tracking my water as well...these are all good things. I’m hoping the blue dots do not go away I really love getting my blue dots lol

[@daleksrcute9945]

@@traceymarshall4295 it sounds like what the diabetic plan is, is that you can’t choose fruit or starches/grains as zero points. Basically so people don’t overeat fruit and grains, but they don’t discourage eating them at all. I think they are more about Avacados for healthy fat and not bacon or anything like that.

For me, adding points for fruit maybe a good thing because I currently don't pay attention to serving size and know I usually have too much. More accountability for me will help I think. I remember when we had to manually count food groups and I think fruit servings were limited to 2 per day!

[@doreenowsiany9775]

I am definitely apprehensive about this new program. I rejoined WW back in June 2021 & have been on the blue plan. Over the years I have been on WW numerous times & have lost probably over 85 pounds all toll. Since June 2021 to present I am within 2 pounds of the goal weight that I selected for myself. My apprehension comes in because when this new program becomes effective around 11/11/21, I will be starting my vacation to go on a cruise that day. I usually do not drink & really haven’t since June (except maybe a few glasses of wine here & there) but I am sure I will be eating much more food & drinking alcohol then I have since June. I did purchase an internet package so I can see how the changes are going to affect me. I am also a diabetic & hate most vegetables so I think I am going to have a hard time on this new program. Going on a cruise at the same time as the new program is rolling out is going to be very difficult for me. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated since I don’t want to gain a bunch of weight back for possibly going off plan for the week of vacation.
