I've always believed that fruits were "free" on Weight Watchers, so the other day I made myself a smoothie with about 1 1/2 cups of fruit, a little bit of yogurt, and some water. I was all proud of myself and posted my smoothie online, so happy that is was only 2 points.(The points of the yogurt)
Several people messaged me saying that the smoothie was actually 5-6 points, and that fruit is not "free" when it's mixed with other ingredients. I was told by several WW members that you have to put the ingredients into the recipe builder to get the "true" points.
Is this for real? Does this mean that if I make a slushie with frozen fruit and a can of diet soda, I have to count the points of the fruit just because I've mixed it with something?
I am a current member of WW online and have never gone to the meetings, so I don't have a leader I can ask.
Thanks!
