So....I'm back to WW after YEARS of being away. I am "old school" - as in paper tracking. I downloaded the AP and I've been dinking around on this board, but I'm confused as to what POINTS I'm supposed to be using: Smart Points Points Plus Classic Points Freestyle ??Whaaat??!?!
What "points" does the AP use? I will go to my first "meeting" on Tuesday, but I'm trying to get a grip now.
thanks, Mary

Hi maryintn and welcome! The app uses SPs (SmartPoints) but this program is called FreeStyle. SPs have been around for about 4 years now. I think Beyond the Scale came out in 2015 and that is when it switched to SmartPoints from PointsPlus. Then they tweaked the program in 2017 and gave it a new name, FreeStyle. (They do that every few years.) but it is still based on SPs. Did that help? Or did I just make it worse. 🤣 Good luck at your meeting, feel free to ask any questions you may have we would be happy to answer them!

Deb gave you a very good explanation of the current plan. Mary, what plan were you last on? Just curious. The current plan will be changing again in about four months, for the new year, and we have no idea if it will still be Smartpoints or another formula. I am doing the older Pointsplus plan.
I too am old school. Welcome back to Weight Watchers!
