Bank your Activity Points

Activity points can now be banked for the week. If you know you have a special dinner or party coming up, move more each day before the event to earn extra food points that can be used at the event.

The Momentum Plan

Weight Watchers's 2009 MOMENTUM Plan combines the best elements of the former Flex and Core. From Flex, the ability to eat any food, with portion control and tracking. From Core, eating foods that sustain you longer and listening to your body's signals.

Continuing with the 4-way approach of Eating Smarter, Moving More, Building Helpful Habits, and attending weekly meetings, you can lose weight by focusing on foods that are "filling foods."

The Football Connection to Weight Loss

*Individual success starts with a HUDDLE. (Attend your weekly WW meeting)
*You have to stick with the GAME PLAN. (Flex/Core)
*We all FUMBLE. (Just get right back on track)
*Keep your eye on the GOAL. (Your next 5 lbs, 10%, or Ultimate Goal)
*BELIEVE in your abilities and never quit. (You can do it!)

Ways to Make Meals/Snacks More Satisfying

-Choose low energy dense foods that are filling because of water, air, and fiber.
-Incorporate the Good Health Guidelines.
-Eat a balance of foods from different food groups.
-Chew more.
-Use Points wisely; a few more Points now can save you from losing control later.
