Roti is made out of 100% wheat flour. Do you think it can be considered as core since whole wheat Pasta is core. I asked this question to leader in WW meetings and she could not answer. Thanks.

I am considering changing to the core plan, maybe even just for a little while as to not plateau. My question...how many dairy servings are allowed per day? Thanks for your time.

I have always done the flex plan but I have decided to switch to the core plan. Its my understanding that you dont "count points" with the core plan. That is the purpose behind the plan...you dont have to count everything as long as its on "the list" you then have 35 points a week to use towards bread or things that are not on the list. You are suppose to control your portions by recognizing when you feel sasisfied...not full..or stuffed. They also recomend that you stop halfway through your meal and rest a few minutes and evaluate how full you feel. The website had great pointers and recipies for both plans..and its much cheaper than paying for a weekly meeting. I have been a member of WW for a while.

You can cheat a little during holidays and some family celebrations. Just watch your portions! Have a salat or broth based soup before you'll start to eat the "bad" stuff. It will fill you up and you'll not eat that much junk. Regarding your usual Friday pizza........ I have to say that you can not eat it every Friday. As I said above it should be once in a while treat. Buy or make your own pizza dough and bake pizza at home - make it healthy pizza. Make it from your core food. I think in a long run, not only you but also your family will appreciate to eat healthier. Dear C.J.,
