The new plan has already been launched in Germany, so I had a ganders at the German site, and the details of the new plan are all on there.
Basically, they are redoing the calculations. As far as I could understand from reading the German site (with the help of google translate- if we have any more fluent German speakers that would be helpful?), we will now do points based on carbs, protein, fibre and fat (presumably saturated, but i'm not too sure on that).
My leader, whilst she didn't tell me the details of the plan, was talking about how successful it has been - she loves it! She doesn't have anything to lose, but some of her leader friends have, and have been losing with great success on the new plan.
