[quote=Anonymous]OK, I don't know how "new" it is - I last did WW when my kids were toddlers and they are starting high school. But I recently signed up to try to shed this perimenopausal weight and the points system is very different than when I did it before. It clearly favors high protein foods, which just does not work for someone like me who needs more whole grains in my diet. Really, 1/4 cup of buckwheat cereal (140 calories) is 5 points?! A cup of cooked quinoa (222 calories) is 5 points?! But I can have two eggs (120 calories) and a banana (110 calories) for breakfast for 0 points? Are there alternatives that are more like the "old" Weight Watchers?[/quote]
