This is wonderful and I appreciate this site! As you gain new members, I would love to know if any others are dealing with Type 2 Diabetes? The WW website specifically says that Diabetics should eat legumes and fruit sparingly. That was my main issue plus I have IBS and cannot eat legumes at all, ever, or raw veggies and a number of other things. My Diabetes is in EXCELLENT control after losing 103 pounds and being 8 pounds from goal but FS was blowing it because I felt like I was suddenly SHOVED into a position of eating what is NOT good for me, which I will not do, so I was actually going between going hungry or eating too much fruit and my sugar was going back up. As a former compulsive over eater, accountability is VERY important so I MUST track even those 0 things, and having the amount of flexibility Freestyle supposedly offers did NOT work for me.

I'm prediabetic and as a rule, never eat more than a serving of fruit per day - and I rarely eat corn or peas despite all of those being zero points. I found it easier to just go back to what I was doing before Freestyle - and I agree that the new program is not diabetic friendly.
