The Weight-Loss Skill: Using PointsPlus™ to put power behind weight-loss efforts and New Year’s resolutions
The Challenge: Each year, we make promises that often fizzle quickly. That’s usually because we lack an action plan and the tools to follow through; we set goals that are too high and get discouraged when we don’t see swift progress.
The Solution: In this meeting, we will learn how starting the new year with a brand-new program will help us achieve even greater weight-loss success. We’ll also discuss ways to set realistic, measurable goals (Winning Outcomes) and formulate a step-by-step action plan (Storyboarding) for achieving them.

Free Fruits and (Most) Vegetables!
The Weight-Loss Skill: Eating more 0 PointsPlus™ value fruits (in moderation) and vegetables for greater weight-loss progress.
The Challenge: Many of us may not trust that we can eat fruit—and most vegetables—for 0 PointsPlus values and still lose weight. Others may simply not be in the habit of choosing fruit over processed foods.

We will explore the features of the PointsPlus plan, particularly the new weekly PointsPlus Allowance, that will help us make healthy choices and still fit in the holiday foods we love.
