Sometimes I use them, sometimes I don’t. I seems to lose regardless. For me it’s all about quality of food. if I eat fresh and healthy I lose, if I eat processed food I don’t;)

@grinder I think quality of food is important. It needs to be express more. You’re on point

---

I lost 1. 4lb this week and I cheated like crazy. All I can say is that I cheated mindfully with awesome food!  

Answer 2

No hardly ever, but I figure it gives me a buffer if I am a little sloppy in my journaling.  

Answer 3

Use them on Saturdays to enjoy pizza and wine. That's all

Answer 4

I never use them

Answer 5

I use them every other week for a “cheat meal”

Answer 6

I use mine. I am still struggling with eliminating certain foods from my diet. One of my goals is to save my weeklies for treats.  

Answer 7

I try not to use them or if i do like only one day that’s it! I’ve lost 7 pounds so far

Answer 8

I don’t count my olive oil spray, etc. I figure it as my weeklies. So much easier for me.  

Answer 9

I do use mine however I find if I use a majority or all, of them it's hit or miss if I lose. The last couple of times I used a majority of my weeklies I have gained. I use my weeklies usually for overages for my days. I use two here, 1 there. etc. There are some days where I use like 10 or something but rarely. For big meals, occasions etc I plan so I am okay.  

Answer 10

Have never used weeklies. Always stay under my daily

Answer 11

I use my weeklies, because I’m creating a lifetime eating plan, not a diet!  

Answer 12

Ok my thought. I eat only about 1/2 that I track but I taste meals as cooking. I know I mindless eat as I walk past my hubby having chips. I have a questionable vitamin. I’m quite inactive. So you see everyone is different and must find their groove and be honest

Answer 13

I’ve never used up my daily points to get into my weeklies!  

Answer 14

I really don't use weekly points or activity meals . But I have one cheat meal a week and one sugary treat a week . ( the only time I eat sugar )

Answer 15

I try not to use them but occasionally I use a few.  

Answer 16

I never use my weeklies and most days I have a couple of dailies left. I lose about 1. 5 - 2lbs a week.  

Answer 17

I eat some not all of them

Answer 18

I do use mine. I workout almost daily so I swap fit points first so I rarely use all my weeklies. But I use many of them. I average 1/2 -1 lb a week. Which sounds slow but I know that’s a healthy rate. So I’m cool with it !  

Answer 19

No I don’t lose if I use them

Answer 20

I do use mine. either I'll have a little extra during the week if I'm struggling, or I will save all the weeklies and try to have roll overs so I can splurge on something really good on the weekend! I've lost quite a bit since I started in September, so it's working for me this way! I do work out 5 times a week too, for 25 minutes at least :)

Answer 21

Use my weeklies every Saturday night for a meal out in a restaurant with 2 beers!  

Answer 22

Yes, I do. Not all of them all of the time. But, sometimes they are needed. WW recommends using them, as they are considered part of the program.  

Answer 23

I don’t purposely use them intentionally, but I’m glad to have them just in case I’ve made any miscalculations or if a special occasion comes up.  

Answer 24

I rarely tap into them. I lose without using them and with (never used them all). I also get about 100 fit points a week that o don’t use.  

Answer 25

I dont use them I probably have 80 I earn each week

Answer 26

I try to eat low one day, and use the rollover points to eat over the next. The weeklies I start with I never touch.  

Answer 27

I use them occasionally.  

Answer 28

I use all of mine and I lose about 2 lbs a week

Answer 29

Rarely use them.  

Answer 30

Never. I actually don’t use all of my dailies either! I’m usually 12-14 under dailies each day!  

Answer 31

I use them if I want! I like seeing some of them left over at the end of the week because I am proud I stuck to the plan and feel like I’ll lose more weight

Answer 32

I use them. I've noticed that if I don't use them, I don't lose as much. For some reason, I seem to lose more if I fluctuate between higher points days and lower points days. I'm sure everyone is different and you just need to find what works for you.  

Answer 33

Ha! I thought this said, “Let’s talk TWINKIES! ”

Answer 34

I use them if i am out and want to but i am not going to go out of my way to use them.  

Answer 35

I use them and I am at lifetime.  

Answer 36

I use them and I lose. I’ve been a lifetime member since 2005 but I’ve had to revisit weight loss a few times. I’ve always had good success on WW and gotten to goal (and back to goal) using all of my weeklies most weeks.  

Answer 37

I use them. Some times I lose, sometimes I don't. It depends on my body's chemistry and exactly what I used the points on. Using the points on candy versus using the points on, say, rice seems to makes a difference.  

Answer 38

I always use my weeklies but never my exercise points. I am losing slowly. But I am losing. Everyone body Chemistry is different.  

Answer 39

Update. I was -3 points and still lost 3. 6 lbs  

Answer 40

I don't use mine all the time but on a weekend like this with the Super Bowl I probably will. But I am making healthy choices and bringing food that I know I will eat during the game.
