WW "flex" pts and activity pts?

Do you HAVE TO use them. It's saying to add 13 points for exercise I'm doing. (1 hr zumba so its high intensity and im larger than the average bear so it says 13)
Also, the flex points. I can see where you'd need them if you went out to eat, but are they required? (chilis fajitas w/ trimmings was something insane like 23 pts).

Re: WW "flex" pts and activity pts?

You don't HAVE to use them.
Do I use them? Yes, I "dip" into them.
Sometimes 29 points a day is not enough, sometimes its more than enough, depending on the day and what I'm doing.

I don't use my activitiy points. I dip into the 49 "extras" first. I haven't once used them all, but, its nice to know that they are there.

Re: WW "flex" pts and activity pts?

if you want, you can change your settings so that you use your weekly points before your activity points. i use approx 12-15 weekly points each week and i've been losing. GL!

Weekly PP Allowance and Activity PP are optional. However, it's been shown that people who get to goal and hit lifetime status generally use at least some of their Weekly PP Allowance.

Oh, good to know. Thanks! Maybe I'll just add like half IF I do a big workout. It wont be too many if I just do the eliptical for a half hr so it would only be like an extra snack (like 4 pts)

Re: WW "flex" pts and activity pts?

Flex points are "required" and you certainly do not need to eat them if they are not needed. That being said, I got to lifetime eating most if not all of my flex points every single week. I choose to use my flex points but never dipped into my activity points.
