New Weight Watchers plan November 2022

New Weight Watchers plan coming for November 2022!

Read on for all the latest news on the new WW plan that is due to roll out sometime in November.

*Update- November 14th, 2022. The new WW program has rolled out in the U.S today. If you are not seeing the update yet in your App then wait a bit and try again. Remember everyone is trying to update at the same time so it can get a bit backed up. For my fellow Canadians, there is no exact date yet for when our Apps will update. I would think based on previous years and updates that it will be soon, maybe later this week or next week.

*Disclaimer- I am not affiliated with Weight Watchers in any way, all information in this post I was able to find on the internet.

Ok, Ok.. I know! Many of you might be yelling at your screens right now, just don’t yell at me ha-ha, I’m simply the messenger. There has been a lot of talk this last week about the new Weight Watchers plan coming next month.   It is no secret that typically every 2-3 years they like to make changes to their program. Sometimes the change is big and sometimes it is just a slight tweak on the current plan.

It was only last year, November 2021 that the Personal Points program rolled out. It is not normal for WW to change up its program so soon.  I’m going to take a guess that the personal points program was not as successful as they were hoping it would be.

Yes, it is not just a rumor you might be hearing. Weight Watchers are indeed rolling out a new program very soon. There is no word yet on what the name of the new program will be but I am sure we will learn this soon.

I am no stranger to WW changes, I have been a lifetime member for over 25 years!  I’ve lost count of how many different programs I have seen come and go. I always try to navigate the new programs into my lifestyle but sometimes they are not a good fit for me and that is ok. Honestly, I have not been in love with any of the programs since we lost points plus. I have tried them all, I always do, but most of my success came from the beloved points plus program.

After points plus came Smart points, beyond the scale. Then we had WW freestyle, which turned into MyWW plan and gave us the colored blue, green and purple programs. The last change to come was WW personal points, which had us all pretty much doing our own program. This last program is where I kinda jumped off the WW train, I started tracking my calories instead. I feel that the sense of community was lost not only with the personal point program but even before that with the MyWW plan. I also was not a fan of the whole earning points for eating certain foods or drinking water.

When I was an avid meeting member and went weekly, I thrived during the meetings and loved the community feel. It just made sense that everyone was on the same program and talking about our journeys together was easy. When people start following different programs it was hard to grasp who was doing what.

What will the new Weight Watchers plan be?

• The new plan will be the same for everyone (unless you are diabetic)
• Members will have the same zero-point foods which will include non-starchy vegetables, fruits, lean poultry and fish, tofu,  non-fat cottage cheese, plain non-fat greek yogurt, eggs, beans, lentils, corn, peas, and a new addition of air-popped plain popcorn.
• Daily point allowances will depend on a number of things like age, sex, current weight, and height.
• Members will have a daily point allowance and a weekly point allowance.
• While members can still earn points for activities, there will be no more points given for water and/or eating certain food such as vegetables.
• There will be a plan for diabetic members, it will look similar to the regular plan with a focus on eating fewer carbohydrates and sugars.
• The algorithm for calculating points will be the same.

*Again, please note this is information I was able to find online, I can not confirm if it is true but many sources lead me to believe it is the correct information.

Can I still follow the Personal Points program?

Weight Watchers will do away with the personal points program once the new program rolls out. If you prefer to stick to this program or maybe you still enjoy one of the older WW programs there are many free Apps out there that you can download and follow these programs on. A few of my favorites are

• ProTracker  
• Healthi (previously itrackbites)

The WW app will only work for the current program available.

So is this new program basically the old WW Freestyle or the “blue” program?

Want my honest answer? Yes, in a nutshell, lol! But WW won’t admit that, they will put all this focus on a brand new revised program meanwhile we are all scratching our heads thinking, “wait a minute, I’ve been here before!”

That being said, I think this is a well-needed change. Personal points in my opinion was just one big mess, yes just messy! Other food bloggers that list WW points can relate with me on this one but it was so hard to post a recipe with the point value. Everyone had different points based on the zero foods they had selected. As a food blogger we enjoy helping members and listing the point value right there in the recipe to make it easy to track. This was pretty much impossible and I just started listing point ranges for recipes. It makes more sense for a recipe to be “x” amount of points for EVERYONE!

What can I eat on this new Weight Watchers plan?

Short answer, exactly what you have been eating and enjoying. While the zero-point foods are changing and some foods for some members won’t be zero points anymore I think ultimately you won’t notice a big difference in the things you are eating. If you can’t work the plan into your everyday life and around the foods you enjoy eating then you should not be doing the plan. We should never have to make drastic changes to the foods we love, it is always about balance and moderation.

Thinking back to the old Freestyle program got me thinking about some of my favorite “freestyle” friendly recipes like my Spicy chicken chili, zero points on the old freestyle so this should be a 0PP recipe with the new program. Some other favorite simple and delicious recipes that were “freestyle” friendly are

• Zero-point ranch dressing
• Garlic bacon & cheese stuffed chicken breast
• Chicken Philly style stuffed peppers
• Breakfast bubble up casserole 
• Chicken pot pie casserole
• Taco fiesta bubble up casserole
• Sloppy joe casserole

If you like to bake I have so many delicious recipes that are low in points, like my delicious pumpkin spice cream cheese muffins or  pumpkin banana greek yogurt muffins  These muffins are just 2PP on the old freestyle program so I expect them to stay the same on the new program. Here’s a list of some of my favorite baking recipes that I expect will stay low in points once the new program is available.

• Double chocolate peanut butter swirl muffins
• Two-ingredient dough cinnamon rolls 
• Chocolate glazed donuts
• Lemon crumb muffins
• Blueberry lemon loaf  
• Apple cinnamon greek yogurt muffins

Will you update all your recipes to reflect the new program?

I feel there won’t be too much to do here, I currently still list the old “MyWW” points on most of my recipes (think blue, green & purple programs). Since it seems that the new program will be very similar to the blue program I’m guessing the points will already be there in my recipes. I’ll just have to go in and do a little updating so there is no confusion on the points listed.

Overall thoughts on the changes?

Bring it on!! As I already mentioned I tapped out when personal points rolled out last year. I was already halfway there with the MyWW plan with different colors so it just pushed me over the edge. I am all for getting back to everyone being on the same program. We need this to get back that community feel again, I think WW veered off the road a bit too much with the last few programs and I am happy they seem to be getting back to their lane!

I know with program changes come all kinds of emotions and many may be feeling frustrated, I get it! I’m a firm believer in trying everything once, feel it out and see if you can make it work for you before throwing in the towel. Please know I am always here to help and offer support in any way I can so don’t hesitate to reach out.

Great!

App and scale are great. But please export the data to the Health app!!! You need to link this data to work properly with Apple Watch and workouts. Thank you!

Good afternoon! Data export works 🙂 Access must be opened in the Picooc app, and then confirmed in the Apple Health app

Useless purchase

BMI analysis is based solely on weight-for-height. I am a professional bodybuilder with eight years of training experience. However, even in competitive conditions, at 102 kg, the scales show 26% body fat!!! Analyzes in a local medical institution, in turn, indicate 8-9%. Conclusion: while the product is useless, due to the lack of product functionality declared by the manufacturer.

Horror!!!

Terrible app. I’m an athlete with cubes on my stomach. The percentage of subcutaneous fat is 9 maximum, the most is 11 (!!) this is the maximum! It shows that I am at the stage of obesity 21% (!!!!)
There is no point in trusting other indicators, except for weight.
I bought a pancake to measure water in the body and% fat0007

How Libra to choose and wear a talisman stone

From September 24 to October 23, people belonging to the air sign of the zodiac Libra (Libra) are born. Venus, the main planet-ruler of the sign, endows its wards with an innate sense of beauty, a love of luxury, a desire for harmony, justice and perfection. At the same time, these people are characterized by indecision, sometimes excessive sensitivity and capriciousness.

A stone suitable for the sign of the zodiac will help Libra enhance their positive qualities and smooth out negative manifestations of character, as well as attract love, health and well-being into your life.

Which stone suits Libra

Representatives of the air element are especially suitable for translucent precious and jewelry minerals of blue, green, and white. One of the main stones for the Libra zodiac sign is agate. The mineral and those born from 24.09 to 23.10 have very similar energy. The stone will give strength to deal with the difficulties that have arisen, will attract good luck.

A favorable stone for the representatives of the sign is aquamarine. It gives stability and helps to make the right decisions without mental anguish and throwing from side to side. When Libra thus comes into a state of balance, without using all its reserves for this, the energy necessary for them to be active and achieve success will be released.

Opal
connects the owner to the search for a way out of situations that are dead ends at first glance, suggests constructive ways to solve problems. Gives optimism and confidence, gives hope to melancholic persons, brings harmony. Despite the dual nature of opal, it was believed that if a decent and noble person wears it, this stone as a talisman will ensure success in business.

Rock crystal will enhance the positive qualities of Libra, contribute to the expansion of social ties, make the owner more attractive in the eyes of members of a significant group of people. This variety of quartz also contributes to the development of creative abilities. Lapis lazuli will become a talisman in personal life and business, protect against competitors, relieve financial difficulties.

The tourmaline stone is suitable for Libra, changeable in their views, because it returns them from heaven to earth, and also gives optimism and brings success. The mineral is especially useful for doctors and teachers, among whom there are many representatives of the sign.

Sapphire is a stone of balance for representatives of the sign, which they lack so much. Promotes the development of emotional stamina, protects from other people’s treachery. Another gem of the first order that suits Libra is an emerald. This green variety of beryl strengthens the spirit and adds courage, contributes to the achievement of goals and recognition by others of the talents born under this sign. By the way, the planetary ruler Venus is also associated with green.

Amethyst is a weight stone of peace of mind, prudence and tranquility. The tiger’s eye protects its owner from unreasonable pangs of jealousy and thoughtless spending, helps to notice details.

By date of birth

There are three decades, in each of which one or another planet has an impact on a person, which means that the characters of people will be different, as well as stones of influence.

· From September 24 to October 2. The planetary ruler is Venus. Those born during this period are dreamy and sociable, they are soft and gentle natures. Turquoise, lapis lazuli, jasper, quartz, rock crystal, light amethyst, moonstone, malachite are considered to be the stones of women and men — Libra by dates of birth that fall in the first decade.

· From October 3rd to October 13th. The ruler of this decade is Saturn. Scales of this period are reasonable and modest. Suitable stones are emerald, sapphire, amethyst, tourmaline, zircon, topaz, chrysolite.

· From 14 to 23 October. Influenced by the planet Jupiter. Representatives of the sign born during this period are endowed with creative abilities. Their minerals are chrysolite, zircon, aquamarine, turquoise, topaz, emerald, sapphire, tourmaline.

By year of birth

Libra, like other signs of the zodiac, it makes sense to choose a mascot stone according to the year of birth. So, people born in the year of the Rat are advised to wear amethyst. Those who were born in the year of the Ox should pay attention to the emerald. Libra-Tigers will protect amethyst from impulsive decisions.

Topaz is suitable for rabbits according to the eastern horoscope, which organizes career advancement. Those representatives of the sign who were born in the year of the Dragon are advised by astrologers to take a closer look at amber. And Serpents will suit jewelry with opal.

Those born in the year of the Horse will create conditions for personal growth emerald and turquoise. In the astrological combination of Libra and Goat, sapphire, emerald and green garnet (demantoid, uvarovite) will be useful. People of the year of the Monkey are advised to wear aquamarine, it will help to finish what they started.

Libra, born in the year of the Rooster, will be a reliable assistant topaz. Those born in the year of the Dog recommend amber to lift their spirits. And for those whose birthday fell on the year of the Pig, lapis lazuli will facilitate the process of self-knowledge.

Libra stones for women and men

For Libra women, the stone talisman of youth and attractiveness is an emerald. Lapis lazuli will help modest people to achieve harmony in relationships with people around them. For peace of mind, representatives of the sign should use the energy of the moonstone (adularia). Blue sapphire will help Libra to change anger to mercy.

According to the horoscope, Libra women can use the help of malachite stone to awaken creativity or increase creativity. Turquoise will help the representatives of the sign to become more confident, bring harmony and stability to life. Tourmaline will help you make the right choice, give you self-confidence, and help you achieve harmony with yourself.

If we talk about which stone suits Libra men according to the horoscope, then they should pay attention to leucosapphire or yellow sapphire. This mineral contributes to the activation of mental potential. Aquamarine will help the representatives of the sign to increase their authority, believe in themselves, successfully negotiate, and is suitable for those who are engaged in business.

The money talisman for Libra men is a zircon stone. Also, the mineral will bring success in business. Chrysolite has a similar power, the stone will attract material wealth and financial stability. Help in new beginnings.

Helper stones in areas of life

Astrologers name certain resource stones for representatives of the sign. Rose quartz, emerald, chrysoprase, malachite contribute to success in amorous affairs with Libra. Emerald is generally considered a faithful assistant in love affairs for representatives of the elements of Air. Those who are paired will be protected from temptations on the side, adventures and dubious acquaintances.

In creative endeavors, malachite and rock crystal will support. In monetary matters and business affairs, chrysolite and zircon will become assistants.

Healing properties of amulets

Lithotherapists believe that each stone has certain healing properties that can be skillfully used to alleviate a particular ailment. But the power of minerals is not the basis for the treatment of any diseases and an alternative to medicines.

Tourmaline among Vesian amulets has a positive effect on the endocrine system. It is believed that the emerald is able to relieve insomnia and migraines. Lazurite has a beneficial effect on metabolic processes in the body, increases physical strength and preserves youth. Sapphire will help with internal conflict.

Stones that Libra should not wear

The list of contraindications for representatives of the sign includes the following minerals:

serpentine;

onyx;

sardonyx;

jet;

Hematite.

However, this does not mean that you should completely abandon jewelry with these stones. If one or another mineral from this list attracts you, you feel positive energy from it, do not deny yourself the pleasure of wearing it. When choosing a talisman, not only the collective image of Libra matters, but also personal character traits.

Stones-talismans of star representatives of the sign

Italian actress Monica Bellucci, celebrating her birthday on September 30, absolutely knows how to emphasize her beauty. Movie star-Libra chooses elegant outfits for her exits, which she complements with jewelry with emeralds and amethysts.

Gwyneth Paltrow, who was born on September 27, shines either in jewelry with malachite or with tourmaline. Burlesque Queen Dita Von Teese, who celebrates her birthday on September 28, prefers precious stones of the first order — sapphires and emeralds.

How to choose and wear a talisman stone for Libra

The sign, as mentioned above, is favored by the planet Venus. Her metal is silver, so silver jewelry with the listed talisman stones is a good choice for Libra. If they are made in the form of the actual symbol of the scales, such as this sapphire pendant, birds, books or wheels, this will further enhance the positive impact.

No matter how strong the energy of the mineral, it will not begin to show its properties immediately — the stone must «get used» to its owner.
