I am over my weight limit for free Etools and decided I needed to go back to meetings in order to get back on track so I can refocus and get the weight back off because I was not doing that on my own. So instead of paying the Etools price plus the meeting fee, I decided to buy a 3 month monthly pass. My question is, will everything stay the same with my current Etools, i.e., my log-in, password and the record of my progress (or lack thereof) since I started with Etools or will it wipe everything out and treat me like a new member? I should have asked that at the meeting, but I did not want to hold of the line and had to leave before the meeting was over.

Absolutely limefan and don't let someone tell you otherwise. Are they linked? Does your weight automatically show up? *Forgot I wanted to say, GO YOU, fantastic that you caught it early and are getting on top of it Robin  |

I would add that if you have a lot of free eTools racked up, those will all be wiped out if you purchase a monthly pass.
I am a Lifetimer about 7# away from being free again. I earned eTools vouchers that provide free eTools almost to the end of 2017. Last week I started going back to weekly meetings and paying the $14 pay as you go out of pocket. The $14 is additional motivation to not drag my feet getting those pounds off.
If I had a greater amount to lose that might take me to the end of the year, I'd probably go with the Monthly Pass.

So if I weigh-in as a Lifetime member over my 2lb limit I would lose all my extra voucher months? |

littlepioneerwoman we definitely need your knowledge on this one Denise, especially for this month. What is the best way to go about that? I stopped just adding them on top of each other, but I am still pretty far out and I will be scrambling for the absolute last weigh in available this month, weighing-in in beach clothes etc.. Just to clarify for everyone wondering, if you have to pay for the month it doesn't wipe out your e-tools, but if you get a monthly pass it does? Thanks!

Still all on paper. So, they are not linked and I have to enter in my own weight. I will try to enter the voucher and see what happens. Thanks for the encouragement. I did not catch it too early. I am up about 10 pounds, but it could have gotten much worse. Glad I recognized I need the accountability of the meetings. |

I ran out of vouchers myself. I have been paying the $14 for about 2 months. I lose very slowly and have about 10 pounds to lose to get back to 2 pounds over goal. It will probably take me at least 6 months to lose the 10 pounds or longer. I had planned on just going to the meetings every other week, but realized it would still cost me more than the monthly pass with the added cost of the etools. Great job to you and getting close to being free again. |

I was able to enter my monthly pass voucher without any issues. Thanks. I did have to chuckle. After I printed out my temporary voucher, there was a button to click on that said Prepare for your meeting. When I clicked on it, information for Points Plus came up. I wish the website would still allow me to do Points Plus. Can I get them for false advertisement. Lol.

OMG, limefan; honestly. But, I will verify what DebDoesWW said about still using P+....that's pretty much still my guide, I am rarely within my points and I've been able to maintain. Make it work for you! I absolutely understand the mindset of *figuring it out, I did it once right*  but I watched an LT gain most of her weight back after she worked her way through her vouchers, and she is still struggling. I salute all of you that bite the bullet...as long as we are at goal, there are more vouchers (hopefully, I do think it's the best LT perk.) |

You will only lose them if you purchase a Monthly Pass. This is my understanding too. And that of my leader who is the most knowledgeable of many leaders I've had over the years. I paid my $14 last week and today I checked my account status online. I still have my free eTools until 11-21-17.
I'm not the fastest loser in the world either, but I'm fairly confident I can get the extra knocked off and be back on track for new monthly vouchers way before November. At least that's what I keep repeating to myself. LOL
