ProPoints NOT working for me!! Anyone else?

    Hi all,

    I'd really like to get some feedback from others on how they are progressing with the new ProPoints system. I started back to WW after a year a half break. I was really excited about the ProPoints system and very willing to try it out, let me stress I was not one of those people who were resisting the old tried and tested method. However.....

    WEEK ONE: Followed the plan to the letter, tracked until I was blue in the face, stepped up the exercise and went on my merry way to my first meeting to be told that I'd lost 2 pounds. I was a little disappointed.

    This is my 4th (yes, I know....) time joining WW and each time I would lose between 3-4 pounds on my first week and then normally a pound each week thereafter. I need to lose approx 2 stone.

    So, I put this down to getting used to the new plan and thought maybe I was overindulging on the fruit (3-4 pieces a day) so I cut down! Also thought I might be retaining a little bit of water with that time of the month (and that would normally impact me) so I carried on regardless.

    WEEK TWO: Doubly followed the plan to the letter, cut down on the fruit, drank a heap of water. Did everything that I am supposed to do and I lost half a pound!!!! :eek: And, this is realistically down to the strategic pee that is necessary before every weigh in!

    What is going on here???? I have gone through my diary with everyone that I know who is doing this to see if points have snuck in where I haven't noticed but no!!! My leader just told me to hang in there without really trying to go in to any detail :confused:

    Please can someone shed some light on what is going on here??? I would be happy to share my tracker and any other fine details if someone could just help me.

    Feeling very demotivated and depressed - I know it is only week 2 but as a seasoned WWer I am usually feeling the reduction in lovehandles and looser clothes and that spurs me on.

    Help!
