New WW program

Has anyone gone to a meeting this week to get the new materials? I'll
be at one tomorrow and I am ready for a fresh start!

Well...I went yesterday...Really seems like a whole lot of hype for very
little...Maybe I'm just jaded...I expected some big changes...But really WW
worked fine for me as it was...Nice new point lookup card...Pretty
pictures...But really not much new in my humble opinion...I'm interested in
what others thinks...GG

They did make a lot out of simple changes, but I think they ARE changes for
the best.. personal daily point target makes so much more sense, as do the
new snack list for Core..

As for the material, it's more people friendly, more meaningful visuals,
better organized. The new starter kit is so much better than the old one...
you actually can find stuff in it!!!!

As a leader, I'm happy to find material that the members will understand. We
can spend less time of program details and more on really what's going on
since members can read and understand the program better by themselves.

And... the new complete food companion is organized by categories, not just
alphabetical order !! FINALLY !

It is simple changes but I think it's significant ones..

Naaww a lot of people (member AND staff) have a hard time with changes..

I don't like changes for changes.. and it has happened in the past. This
time they looked at the US program, at the UK program and saw that it works
better in the UK and adjusted..

Thanks for your insight into the changes. I don't get to hear the live
version until Saturday morning. I know what the changes are but I am
interested in how she presents them. There's lots of negative reaction to
the core changes over on the WW message board.

As I indicated before, I recalculated my Flex target points and I should be
eating 19-21 points instead of the 22 points based on the old flex point
ranges. I know that I need to increase my activity level if I am ever going
to get the scale moving again. That and get my dang eating under control.

With the new lower target points did you get any members suddenly realise
that Core might be an easier program for them? I can't see being able to
survive on less than 20 points per day. 22 seems to be more my norm.
