Transitioning from weight watchers

I am new here but have been on weight watchers for about 6 months. I was getting fed up with the point system. I’m absolutely shocked at how much more I can eat on this program than I could on weight watchers. Does anyone else have this experience?

    I don't but there have been several threads recently about this. It sounds like the new program isn't very popular.

    Welcome to mfp.

    I am leaving WW as well because of the new freestyle program. Feel free to add me as a friend! Maybe we could get a WW group together to support each other on here.

    I’m leaving weight watchers too! On day three of the new plan I was up four pounds!!! And that was coming off of a really good loss too! I was absolutely gutted!

    I’m leaving WW too. I don’t like the new program & feel like I can switch to MyFitnessPal to still keep me on track.

    Yes I did too. I find MFP is soo much more flexiable, I can still eating chocolates and stay within my daily calorie goal :)
