I've only been doing weight ...I too am worried. I've only been doing weight watchers since July and have only 4.4lbs to go until goal. I don't want change. I like how the program has worked for me thus far. I will of course listen. But definitely skeptical at this point..s|davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04417629339760652397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392953914136595057.post-80578167128577780702010-11-13T01:01:32.720-06:002010-11-13T01:01:32.720-06:00A friend of mine who is a receptionist at a local ...A friend of mine who is a receptionist at a local WW group told me today about a few of the changes.<br /><br />1) we will have more points<br />2) certain foods will cost more points<br />3) yes, fruit will be free!<br /><br />Change can be scary, but just look what taking a step in the direction of scary looks like today...we've all lost weight!

What I found was very positive. If what I've been reading is correct, we will still be doing a points system, but the points will include more than just the fat, fiber, and calories. This will more accurately reflect not only what we're eating, but the quality of those foods. So if you want to live on junk, it will cost you more. Also, I've read that fruit will be free....wooohoooo!!! <br /><br />I hope I'm not passing along any information that's not accurate, but from what I've read this is the program they've tested out in the UK with great success. I'm actually looking forward to it now!!!<br /><br />Blessings!!!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13695109793957198216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392953914136595057.post-27365161470077297092010-11-12T15:06:49.604-06:002010-11-12T15:06:49.604-06:00Losing Brownies - Oh I will let you know what I th...Losing Brownies - Oh I will let you know what I think when I learn more about the new program.Jen Newshamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17937570735455022985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392953914136595057.post-91489006599370081362010-11-12T15:05:12.812-06:002010-11-12T15:05:12.812-06:00I don't do well with change either.

I think the big thing about weight watchers is keeping you accountable with food and encouraged with meetings and friends. So there may be foods worth less point or some worth more but you clearly know what you need to do! You will also always have the support in your meetings and here in blogland. Keep up the good work! and try not to worry about a little change.ERICA https://www.blogger.com/profile/13631969628256018546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392953914136595057.post-47912075228229888982010-11-12T10:01:55.513-06:002010-11-12T10:01:55.513-06:00MrsMarkDave - I just hate that they make us wait l...MrsMarkDave - I just hate that they make us wait like this.
