im just curious , which one of theses 2 give the best results?
Im guessing the core, since u are limited with your starches. Im curious to know how the success is with the core.....anyone thats successful please this is your moment to tell the world how core worked for you i love the flex but im not againts going core at any moment. Thanks alot!!!
Both are designed and work out to averaging .5-2 pounds a week. Neither is better than the other but more what fits the person and what the person makes of it. Both programs should be eating a balanced diet with one of the PointsPies. Core making it simple by giving Core foods with some that are limited and then allowing you some points for nonCore foods whereas Flex lets you be the adult and make those health choices yourself.
I personally do a combo (most affectionately called Clex or Flore) where I try to eat as much of the Core foods as I can but still watch my portions and points.
The following points pies help those on Flex eat more balanced (with adjustments for a higher carb or higher protein option):

Complex Carbs/Grain Based Foods – 8-9 points a day

and also following the 8 Great Health Steps which is located on page 34 (I believe) of the Week 1 booklet or can be found on the W/W official site and after you log in, it can be found in the Select a Resource dropdown menu located in the Shortcuts toolbar on the left hand side of the page. Click on Weight Loss Topics of the Week in the My Plan section of the dropdown menu. On the next page you will see the View Topics Archive link in the box on the upper right side of the page. Click the link to be brought to the topics archive. 8 Great Health Guidelines is the first first link on the archive list.
These 8 Great Health Guidelines are really essential to making both plans work to an optimum level and are FOR BOTH PLANS!
So which is better really lays with the individual as to which fits their life better and works for them.
