Default WW Fruit points

I need help.....I think I remember the leader at my WW meeting saying that you can count a piece of fruit as zero points if it is smaller than your fist. Has anyone else heard this? I ask because it seems crazy to count a tiny apricot as 1 point.

Thanks in advance for your opinions and help.

Never heard that before - on one old plan (I think it was fat and fiber) fruit basically didn't count. Two apricots are one fruit serving -

Never heard that small fruit doesn't count. Only veggies are 0 points, I'm almost positive.

Apricots- 3 fresh (4 oz) = 1 point
dried-6 halves(3/4 oz)=1 point
I would just count it as 1 point and have the other 2 later in the day for snack.
Only Veggies are 0 points

Thanks everyone. I didn't think that fruit was zero points. I have been on WW since January and always counted them but what one person said made me second guess. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing. Appreciate the input!
