5 Questions/Answers about The SmartPoints Plan

5q-SP

1. A new formula: The SmartPoints system, based on the latest nutritional science, inspires healthy eating by making protein-rich foods a better value and foods higher in sugar and saturated fat more “expensive.”

2. Daily SmartPoints Target: You have a daily Target based on your height, weight, gender and age. You’ll get this Target online or in your meeting.

3. Weekly SmartPoints. You have Weekly SmartPoints, which are based on the same factors as your daily Target. Weekly SmartPoints add leeway to your plan. You can choose to use them or not!

4. FitPoints Activity Goal. You have a personalized FitPoints activity goal based on your preferences and lifestyle. FitPoints focuses on overall movement, not just formal “exercise.” Exercising as a means for earning more food points is discouraged.

5. Tracking. Tracking is still an integral part of this plan. You can use your online tools and your Mobile app (if you are a subscriber.)

How does SmartPoints help you eat more healthfully?

Many studies have confirmed the benefits of eating less sugar and saturated fat and more protein. On the new plan, foods that are higher in sugar and/or saturated fat are higher in SmartPoints; foods higher in protein are lower in SmartPoints. You’re steered to healthier choices and away from the less healthy. The focus is on real, whole foods. Refined carbs, sugars and saturated fats got a whole lot more expensive.
