thinking of doing ww pro-points - is it similar to the old ww diet?

[idealism]

I did ww 8 years ago, the standard points diet and lost 4 stone. After ds2 born I did their no-count diet and lost all the baby weight and found that diet better than the points one. How is the new pro-points diet different? is it better? can someone outline the basic elements in a short way so i can decide whether to join or not.... thanks

They calculate your daily propoints allowance using your height/age/weight and you have this amount of points to spend each day. On top of this you have 49 weekly points to use. Most fruit and veg is 0 propoints everything else has its own points value.
I cant comment on the old way as this is my first go at WW been doing it 8 weeks and lost 25lbs.

thanks vajazzler. so how many points a day do you have?

i have been doing PP since february and have lost a grand total of 7lbs.

not sure why it's not working, i lost over 2 stone on the old points system.

im on 29pp a day.

I'm on 53 [hblush] i am quite tall but v v overweight. I was on 55 when i started
It gradually decreases as you lose weight
