New to Core, but not to WW.

  • Hi all,
    I'm new to this board but not to WW. I have just started the core program today and have a question. Is 94%FF kettle korn core? Are sunflower seeds core? I started WW in Jan of 2004 and lost about 33 lbs. During this summer I went off plan, sort of and gained back 7 lbs. Now I'm back in the saddle again. I'm grateful for only gaining 7 and not the whold 34! Any info will be appreaciated. The recipes on here are great! Keep up the good work everyone!
    Thanks for your help

  • Welcome Aly!! How is your first day on Core going??
    I am Spryng! I've been on Ww for one year now and still loving it! I hit my goal weight back in april and have been working on my personal goal weight since then and Core has been the perfect plan for that!
    OK, sunflower seeds are NOT core... 94% ff kettle corn is NOT core, but 94% ff buttered and reg is. HTH
    I hope to see many posts from you so I can get to know you better!
  • Thanks for the quick response Sprying and nice to meet you too! Great job on your weight loss!! I'm doing ok so far, I think i'll like the not counting thing. My biggest problem is my husband likes to go out, hence, I drink beer with him....ho-hum. Gotta stop that crap.....:-) Sooooo.....I had a TBS of sunflower seeds....how many points would you say? Is this info in the week one book? I'll have to stop being lazy and look! Thanks again
    BTW your pic is just beautiful.....
  • Welcome, it's nice to have you here! Of all the weight loss boards I frequent, this is my favorite, the people here are wonderful! Gaining only 7# back is not bad at all, you will lose then in no time. I love CORE, it takes a little getting used to at first, but now that I'm in week 3, it's becoming second nature! I came from Atkins to CORE, lost 30# on Atkins, and so far 3 on CORE!
  • Hi Aly and Welcome to the boards!! I'm Heather and I just started back on WW after having a baby! I started the core program last week and I will have my first weigh in on Thursday - so far I love the freedom of eating till satisfied!!!

    Gaining only 7 lbs is not bad at all!!
  • Welcome. This is my third week on Core and I love it. The freedom of eating without counting is wonderful. Of course you still have to watch portions but that is kinda second nature to anyone who has been on WW before. Good luck and post often. We want to hear your thoughts on the program.
