Well they say that fruit is zero points but a lot at the group who aren't losing have been told to cut down on the fruit.... Some are hardly having any as it is....not very good.
That what I meant earlier (rightly or wrongly) I feel like sometimes that leaders are just spouting out stuff they think will make us feel better when its plainly just another excuse.
My hubby was told to cut down on fruit as that might be the cause for him, even when he did, it didn't make an ounce of difference, yet I was losing fine and having sometimes two bananas and an apple a day, and once I even had that and some pineapples in juice (without the juice) and I was doing great, plus on the old plan he was eating 3 bananas a day and never found it hard to lose.
sorry . thats what i am trying to find out..does the plan work or does the free fruit etc mean it doesn't work..i really eat too much and couldn't stick to 16 points a day.
i seem to have read mixed stories
seemed too good to be true and maybe it is
thanks again
I think so long as you don't over eat on the fruit you will be ok on the new plan. My leader was saying 2-3 fruit a day at most (even though in my mind I always thought that 0 pointed foods were things you could eat loads of without worrying to much) go figure.
I don't think my leader would lie to us, she did say that one person at another one of her meetings is on almost the most points you could be put on (I think she said 67) and he is still losing weight. If thats true then good for him as its working.
People are only unhappy when something stops working for them that has been working before.
If you have done neither plan before, then give the new one a try, as thats the one there doing at meetings and if you decide to stay for meetings it would be a little pointless if you were on the old plan, cause they will be discussing the new one (would be a little confusing to say the least)
All you can do is try, and if you find in the end it doesn't work, well there is a sub forum for people still doing the old plan, and if you fin like lots of others on here, that it works, well then thats great to hear..
