WW No Count or Smart Points?

Hi I started Weight Watchers over two weeks ago and have been using the Smart Points system. In the first week I lost 6lbs and then the second week, nothing.
I don't eat all of my weekly points and I don't eat my FitPoints so I'm slightly confused!
Do people who do WW find that they have more success on No Count or the points plan?

    Why aren't you eating all your points? It is normal to have no loss after a big loss. Are you tracking your calories too? You may be eating a lot of free foods.

    I would just follow one program at a time and stick to it. And after a large loss like, it's normal not to lose for a week or two and then you will proceed to lose regularly. Congrats! Give it more time. It's only been 2 weeks :)

    First week is most likely water weight, which you generally loose quickly. After that your body is getting into pace with your new lifestyle choices, so give it time.

    The old mantra comes to mind this is not a sprint, it's a marathon.

    Patience. You've lost 6 lbs in 2 weeks. You're doing great.

    Those people I have spoken to do better with the points plan. Weight loss won't be steady, it's going to go in an on and off pattern. Your body does things with water that affect what you see on the scale.

    I don't eat all my points because I'm just not hungry and I'm eating low sugar.

    As to the rest it sounds like I just need to be patient :)

    I loved the old pro points system best, eating certain food freely just doesn't work for me. it's very normal to lose nothing after a big loss, you'll probably find u lose next week though so be patient and keep it up.
