Thanks for that link scwood! Looking at it it reminds me of homework assignment that was titled "tweak the current program and make us sound more exciting in 100 words or less" Seriously this is the new program?! Was just coming here to post this link! I went and tried using it -- and a few questions in I had to pick a plan (digital, etc.) to get to the points so sadly couldn't go futher.

linda72 , I have never seen my Weekly points fluctuate week-to-week and certainly never go over 50 - they've always been "the same" since I've been at the same weight. So much the same that I think they were 35 = 5-a-day. 52 does not divide evenly by 7; nor does 32, which is this week's magic number (and I have not used any).

diva49 there is definitely some tweaking going on in the app getting things ready for the rollout.

I'm sitting with diva49, and my own bowl of popcorn. I had a feeling a big letdown was coming. Sorry to hear not much is going to change. Can you say hot air? Thanks, Mindy!

I REALLY have been trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. I kept hoping they'd actually use current standards - that even my grocery store is offering for free on their app- and really take a new twist on "Points" and run with it and make it NEW and EXCITING.

I am thinking of all the people that are all going to have to re-invent themselves and their businesses......

You girls got me curious so I had to Google.
"As of July 2018, Weight Watchers was the most widely used commercial diet in the world. In addition to the U.S., as of 2018 it had operations in countries including Canada, the UK, Germany, Switzerland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil."
It just seems like it is everywhere.

<making popcorn and settling into the recliner> No, wait, I’ll have to go back and select it into my plan and make it zero….because it’s 4:30am here and already there are complaints on Connect, wait until the rest of the country wakes up and finds their program gone. Gonna go through A LOT of that popcorn!!!!

On my phone this topic is interspersed with ads for Nutrisystem! Prophetic.
