OLD WW EXCHANGE program
 

Hi. I was wondering if anyone has the old exchange progeam fro weight Watchers? I have beeen doing a search with no luck and would like to start this asap, as it was very structured and specific with what you should eat. Thanks

Hi Minnie ;)

Well I still do the WW 123 Pgm...learned it years ago...and over the years when I wanted to go back on WW I use that pgm, it's the one I know well and still find that it works well for me.

Not quite sure what you need or want, but will be happy to help in any way possible...most of the stuff at the time I learned online, but now with everyone on different pgms its more difficult...let me know how I can help you. ;)

if im not mistaken it went something like this:

6 breads
3 proteins
2 fruits
3 veggies
2 dairy
2fats

Andrea,

Looked through what I had...since I did WW at home and with the help of friend I don't seem to have that information...it's not in my 2 cookbooks for the 123 plan...I will continue to look around for you.

Don't let that stop you from starting...eat sensibly...the points for that time are:

Less than 150 pounds..........18-25 pts.
150 to 174 pounds...............20-27
175 to 199 pounds...............22-29
200 to 224 pounds...............24-33
225 to 250 pounds...............26-33
Over 250 pounds.................28-35

All the points are easy to find on here and DWLZ....or feel free to email me if you want some help along the way.

I don't even go by that list...I eat sensibly and count points.

I try and eat plenty of fruits and veggies...and drink plenty of water...that's really the easiest way and best way to start. Choose foods you enjoy, or learn to eat fat free, lite breads, sugar free etc.

GOOD LUCK...JUST START....EACH DAY IS A NEW DAY...YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK!!!

wasnt someone askin for the original exchange plan?

Actually there are several threads in this forum if you do a search for selections or exchanges I believe.

3-5 proteins
4-6 breads
2 milk
3 fruit
3 fat
3 or more veggies

oh, and 21 personal selections for the week and 100 bonus calories.

I am doing Flex Points now, but found this old Tracker that has the basic eating plan. I hope I'm not violating any rules by posting this.

(Less than 175 pounds) (175 to 250 lbs) (Over 250 lbs)
Bread: 5 / 7 / 9
Protein/Milk: 6 / 7 / 8 Teens get 9
Fat: 3 / 4 / 5
Fruit/Vegetable: 5 or more.............................................. All
Water: 6 or more.............................................. All

I think the bonus calories were over the week but I'm not sure.
Bonus Calories: 250............................................... .........All

I mostly remember that it reminded me of Richards Simmond's (sp?) Deal A Meal which I had just finished trying before I started going to meetings.
