Again (since I responded earlier and will add) why? They are part of the plan and the more you use the more you'll have when you reach maintenance. W/W devised the program so that you'd lose with a bare minimum (Daily/Target Points) and a max for the week (Flex/Weekly Points). They also realized that you need more on days you are more active thus you can eat more with exercise (Activity Points).
Secondly even eating your Flex you are still taking in less calories than when you weren't on W/W so again why wouldn't you?
BTW I didn't drop points as my weight went down and at 149 I was still eating 24 points as Target with all my FPs and 3-5 APs a day and still losing becuase I ate all my points.
Finally the majority of people lose better or at the minimum more consistently eating all their points.
My days are normally like this:
Breakfast: Cereal and Milk or a smoothie --- 4 points
Mid morning snack: fruit or popcorn --- 1-2 points
Lunch: Salad w/homemade dressing and 1 tsp of olive oil --- 2 points
Sandwich (low cal bread, lunchmeat, cheese, lettuce, tomato) --- 3 points
Fruit --- 1 point
Yogurt --- 2 points
Mid afternoon snack: fruit or popcorn --- 1-2 points
Dinner: 3-6 oz lean meat --- 3-6 points
starch (rice, potatoes, or pasta) --- 3-4 points
veggies (2-3 cups) --- 0-3 points
healthy oil (1 tsp) --- 1 point
Evening Snack: 0-12 points depending on APs, hunger level and how many points I have left
