Answer 2

Some days I do and some days I don't. I don't eat just to use up my points.  

Answer 3

As long as you are losing don't worry about others because what works for them may not for you. You need to feel satisfied with what you are eating & the amount. you can't starve yourself because others are not using all their points. Activity plays a lot it in too

@lorusso99 I am just getting started so Ireally don’tknow yet

---

@gardol0 . Try eating all your points each day. on blue if you eat too many zero point foods instead of your daily points then some times you can over eat because zero foods have calories too. If you don't lose in the first couple weeks then adjust your points by a few to see if this helps. I have lost 175 pounds on blue so the program does work but you won't lose it overnight but changing your lifestyle will help you keep it off

---

@lorusso99 Yes this is important and also if you don’t eat enough daily you won’t lose either depending how much you deprive yourself.  

---

@lorusso99 that’s a very good point!  

---

@alvy15 Thats true a lot of people do not eat enough & their weight loss comes to a halt. I have did it all & found if I eat my daily points I lose steadly. If I come to I halt I change up what I am eating. that can make a big change also & get you jump started again

Answer 4

Yup went over today. Bad day

Answer 5

Most of them but not my weekly

Answer 6

I try not to but I do often! But happy I lost 2 more lbs. this week whew! Keep at it! I refuse to let this virus throw me off course

@waine I'm doing Green. 23 pts. Daily. I'm at 165 and 5'3. Is that the right points? Thanks

---

@waine I’m similar size and 30 points on green.  

---

@daw8488 You should have filled out a questionare and then they will tell you . when I started I was 180 UGH at 5 feet exact just about. wicked happy to be at 165 about now too. I want to get to 125 lbs. for my age and height. cannot wait now wooo . 39 to go. not too bad and I am #TeamBlue with 23 a day yes. you have a few more then me Susan

---

@waine so what is the difference between green and blue?  

---

I'm not too sure. try and look at the website and you can always call their 800# they are VERY helpful <3

---

@daw8488 Blue has more free foods so you get less points. Green basically only has fruits and some veggies so get a few more points. I started with 30 and after losing 10 lbs am still at 30 points.  

Answer 7

They’re there for you to use. Why wouldn’t you?  

Answer 8

The points are there to use. That goes for weeklies too.  

Answer 9

I sometimes do go over but I don't worry to much, I stop eating after 5:30 and it seems to working, down 15 lbs sense February 20

Answer 10

Restricting too much can inhibit weight loss.  

Answer 11

Heck yes I do! I use most of my weeklies too!  

Answer 12

The program works great for the majority of people who eat all their daily points.  

Answer 13

Yes, always ☺️ I lost 62lbs in 10 months on blue, doing so

Answer 14

Have 6 SP left after dinner. So excited. I don’t eat after 7PM & fast 15 hours. Fasting works for me. But I love ❤️ using my points. I’m a foodie

Comments

@calculate @anastasio i love to eat, that’s my problem LOL. Just finished dinner and have no ponts left for a snack

@gardol0 I have to save 3 points for my new favorite Yasso Chocolate Frozen Yogurt bars!  

---

@calculate @anastasio ohhh where do you get those?  

---

@calculate @anastasio I loooove the coffee chocolate chip ones

---

@gardol0 Stop & Shop in New England. But most markets have them in the frozen good section. I found them by accident. I love the barcode scanner on the WW APP!  

---

@gardol0 I just got them yesterday at Walmart.  

Answer 15

I use my dailies every day. The weeklies i only use sometimes. I have tracked calories on and off and some day's when i have used all my dailies i have only gotten to 900 calories. So can you imagine not eating my dailies. I could be eating 600 calories. So i try to eat my dailies daily, lol!  

Answer 16

I was told that you are supposed to use all your daily points and weekly points to get the best results.  

Comments

@mozellemozes905 I like the sound of that!

Answer 22

My dailies and my weeklies (but not my fitpoints) :-)

Comments

@meadors2249 how do the fitpoints work?  

---

In your profile section on the App you can set it up to add your fitpoints into your weekly points. You earn fitpoints based on your exercise activity.  

---

@meadors2249nice!  

---

@meadors2249 thats a good idea. Im gonna try it.  

Answer 23

I have 28 points and very rarely use them all. Unless I have a glass of milk or juice (or booze lol) but I only eat 2 meals a day and for snacks I eat fruit or veggies

Answer 24

Dailies yes not always weeklies and definitely not my fit points

Answer 25

Yes it's best to eat all your dailies if I leave any it's maybe 1-2 a week

Answer 26

Not usually. but being stuck in the house I am definitely eating more

Answer 27

Your points are there for you to eat. If you constantly under eat your body thinks there is a famine and holds onto the weight to "protect" you. I stick to a range of 5 below and 5 above my daily point value. This way I am not making myself crazy. If I am full I dont have to eat more and if I am a little hungry I can have a little more

Answer 28

I do not eat all my dailies, none were or no to fit points so.  

Answer 29

I do pretty much every day

Answer 30

I usually do. Sometimes I get into my weeklies too.  

Answer 31

I use them all everyday, and some of my weeklies every week.  

Answer 32

I use all of them every day, I only use my weeklies for special occasions, Easter, Christmas, Birthday's, Anniversary etc.

@phenomenology Here is how I handle holidays. I figure there are about 20 food days a year. Holidays, birthdays, bbqs, etc. It is not those 20 days that get us into trouble. It is what we do with the other 345 days. At the beginning of the year I mark down 15 days where I plan on enjoying myself without guilt. I keep 5 aside for spontaneous celebrations. I know these days are coming so I can be super good on the days leading up to them and the days following. I expect a gain/maintain on my next weigh in but I am okay with that because it is temporary and I enjoyed myself. I also have learned that I can eat my Birthday cake guiltlessly, but I don't need to eat everyone's birthday cake. Unless they are part of my 20. For instance, I have cake on my husband's and my moms but not my siblings, niece, nephews, cousins, unless they are milestones. Then I might consider making it one of my 20. As much as I love my work family, I don't use my 20 on work celebrations. My 20 day system works well for me because it make it easier for me to stay on track when I know one of those days is just around the corner. It works for me. Also just so you know. Those holiday candies are the same candy you avoid all year long they are just in fancy magical holiday colored tinfoil. Remember that!  

Answer 33

I usually roll over 4 every day. gotta save up weeklies for "Wine-Thirty" on Friday and Saturday night! lol

Answer 34

I have to eat my points to loose , if I don’t I do not loose . I always use my roll overs maybe not all but some of them at least . It’s like gas in the car you have to put it in the tank to run the motor !  

Answer 35

Nope. Usually have anywhere from a couple to 8-10 left over.  

Answer 36

My body needs the points

Answer 37

I do and I use my weeklies

Answer 38

You should use them. and some of your weeklies.  

Answer 39

Why Not ? This program is about living Not Depriving

Answer 40

Yes ++++  

Answer 41

That’s what they are there for. Do you only eat zero point foods?  

Comments

@stove @paulson530 no, I use my daily points most days, just curious what other people do

---

@gardol0 - so sorry, I totally misunderstood what you said.  

Answer 42

I use every single one!  

Answer 43

Every last one

Not usually.  

Answer 46

That's what they are there for  

Answer 47

Every day!  

Answer 48

I do 95% of the time

Answer 49

I wasn't, but sought some advice and learned it can actually halt progress. I started eating them and the results are better

Answer 50

Experiment and do with what works best for YOU. Everyone is different. I ate all my daily points and half to all my weekly points. I never felt deprived.  

Answer 51

Yes most of the time and weekly too

Answer 52

The closer I am to goal it seems like I need to cut down. But some days I do. Others I’ll go a little over. Trying to always stay in the blue.  

Answer 53

I have been lately and am well into my weeklies already. Not gonna stress about it, my main goal during quartile is to NOT gain

Answer 54

You should eat all of your daily points. You shouldn’t use all of your weekly points

Answer 55

You should use them all and your weekly points.  

Answer 56

Use every thing

Answer 57

I use them all and still am hungry!  

Answer 58

I do and some days I dip into my weeklies. Works better for me when I don’t restrict myself

Answer 59

This week I did

Answer 60

Yes every day just about

Answer 61

Yes, that’s what they’re there for. You need to eat enough to lose weight. I use my weeklies also.  

Answer 62

Absolutely! That’s what makes WW doable and sustainable.  

Answer 63

No not all the time

Answer 64

Yes most of the time.  

Answer 65

Best thing you can do for yourself is eat your dailies. When it comes to maintaining, you will find it easier to figure out how much to eat to not gain or lose

Answer 66

I use my dailies and my weeklies!  

Answer 67

Hardly ever use my daily or weekly

Answer 68

Some days yes, some days no.  

Answer 69

Dailies and weeklies are calculated based on your body and designed for weight loss. Constantly undercuting your points is treating this as a diet. WW is about balance, not deprivation - that’s why it works

Answer 70

If I ate all my points I'd gain weight--never mind touching the weeklies. Last night I had almost half my points left (on green)
