  • I received a message from WW on my on-line tracker stating that my daily points allowence has been changed. (Down from 29 to 26) and stated that it would be an option to return to the old total in January. I have been losing at 29, so I'm bummed. We'll see. I don't go to meetings, so I didn't know this was coming.
  • YOu can change it now on etools. Mine dropped from 29 to 28, I went in and changed it to 31. Just click the settings button on the tracking box.
  • Chele615, can you wait one day this time and go on Sunday? I don't think I could wait a whole week.
  • Everyone with e-Tools-----look at the WW site. It has all the information. I don't think I will really understand all of it until I go to the meetings.
    Good luck!

  • The changes have already taken place on the WW E-Tools website.
  • I really like the design of the new site! My points stayed at 29.

    If it was just me, I would....but I go to meetings with a coworker of mine and it's a standing date every Saturday morning. LOL

    I did look at the updates on the WW etools site though, so maybe my leader will be a rebel and do the updates tomorrow
  • My points went down to 26! Yikes!!!

    I know that I can raise them back to 29. It was just a surprise.
  • I am glad for the changes. I switched to 26 points awhile ago but didn't have a way to change it online. Also you can now set your weekly points below 49. I have set mine to 25 which seems to work for me.
  • What do people think of the changes? I wasn't losing at 29 points and got frustrated so I stopped, but are the changes enough that it is worth it to try again?
  • Love the site's new layout.

    And it's pretty easy to change the Daily Points target under the Plan Manager settings. It can be adjusted both up and down, so that it can be experimented with. I love it!
  • I don't hang out on this board (I'm a 100lb club girl) but I follow WW. With the wee new baby, it's hard for me to get to a meeting but the site does have a ton of information and my points value is ridiculous right now (I'm nursing), so 'm not sure if my points have adjusted.

    I am excited about the break from tracking but I was hoping it would be more like the old school Core plan (where I lost 60 pounds). But it seems more like a "break" than a plan. Probably a good idea for me to start with tracking again anyway. My appetite is weird since pregnancy.

    Anyone else use the iPhone app? So far I think it's a little funky. Trying to be more like the website and less like an app but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I just don't need "article and recipes" to be the first thing I see when I open the app. I'm tracking! Get out of my way!

    I also like that you can easily change the Weekly Points, too. I have it set to take AP first, but I went ahead and changed my weeklies to 25
  • I like being able to adjust Weekly Points. I was informally doing that before but I like that I can do it formally now but I can also go up to the full points sometimes (such as when traveling).

    Goddess Jessica -- You can do Simply Filling 100% of the time if you want. It is just that before you had to do it for the entire week if you did it whereas now you can do it per day. While it isn't something I think I want to do, I like having that option.
  • If you look at the old core list it is nearly the same as the power foods list, I would just do it if it worked for you, it seems to really be the same plan as Core. If I understand it correctly.
