Hi everyone! This is my first post so please excuse any newbie mistakes.

A few years back I was on the gold plan with lites. I am going to restart the program on my own. I have searched the forum and found a lot of information on the newer plan and serving size changes. I want to make sure I have all of the correct info before I start!

I am 5'3 and about 170lbs. I do not want to use bars. How would my proteins, veggies, etc. change on the plan if not using bars? Also, I read that pudding is now okay. Is that fat free or sugar free or both? It is a condiment correct?

Thank you to everyone who is able to help me out. I tried to find all of the info on my own, but the search feature seems to hate me.

Since you don't want to do the lite bars, you would need to move up to Purple, instead of Gold, as I understand it. The Total number of servings is exactly the same from Gold to Purple, just the serving sizes change.

For example instead of 6 oz of chicken, you get 8 oz of Chicken. There aren't that many changes in serving sizes, but enough. Peanut Butter goes from 2 to 3, beef goes from 4oz to 6 oz. Bassically you get a little more protein in you servings.

If you want to use the bars, I suggest the Luna Bars you can get in any grocery store or walmart/target.

As for the pudding, my book doesn't mention it as a condiment, but someone else may be able to better handle that question.

pudding is now considered a dairy, and you get 3/4 cup enjoy that

I will check on the other info in the a.m.......I am off to bed
