Talk to me about Weight Watchers

I've done it in the past but I know they've changed the program a lot.  I'm not asking for the details because I know people freak if they think you're (gasp!) trying to work the program without paying haha  I just want to hear from real people what the biggest fundamental differences are to you and whether you think it works better or worse than the old program.

    You get more daily points & more weekly points on the PointsPlus system but some foods are worth more points.  Most vegetables & fruits are free.

    There is a different way of calculating points, most fruits and veggies are free.  Carb type things typically have 1-2 points more then they used to.   There is more emphasis on making better food choices, rather then just eating whatever you want and staying in your point range. 

    I am not on it, but my SIL is and she has lost 20 pounds in about 3 months. She really likes it.

    I did weight watchers a few years ago and then started again in Jan. I like the new program. I have had ups and downs but overall I have lost about 18lbs. As long as I track I do well. I am an Iphone user and they have an app that makes it easy to track on the go.

    Ditto this.  I'm online only so I use my iPhone to track and while I've been not so great with the tracking for the last 6 weeks I've done well.  I'm back into the swing of things this week and I'm feeling good again because I think the new program really forces you to make the best (better) food choices than earlier points programs.  The GHG are really key for me in that if I don't get them in I can still end up hungry.  Also point free fruit is fantastic.  Yay morning banana!
