Question

Why do they have different color programs? Aren't the points enough?  

Answer 1

Each plan has different point values and a list of zero point foods (being mindful of portion sizes). I love purple plan because I already was eating whole foods for the majority of my meals which is my longterm goal. This way I can easily shop and cook while losing weight without the hassle of counting everything all the time. I do get daily and weekly points which give me a small but nice window to add some variation. My body loses weight better when I stick to a plan focused on mostly whole foods .  

Answer 2

Because different people's bodies and lifestyles and food interests require different needs. It's to make it more tailored to the individual

Answer 3

They let you choose what works best for you. Love the accountability of measuring and counting everything - try green! Hate measuring and want to be able to eat zero point foods more freely - try purple! Need something more in the middle - blue is for you!  

Answer 4

I miss the old way. the first point system, more structured. writing it down, not all the online tracking which I don’t like. I lost 85 pounds and kept it off 5 years til I started taking care of my mom and my weight slowly crept back up
