Weight loss is as much as a mental game as it is anything else.
That is the truth!
And I think the mental game works best for me under Flexpoints because I no longer have to 'deprive' myself in order to bank points. I'm eating about the same number of points that I ate on the old program but now it is a joy and a breeze to stay on-program 24/7.
But for those who are stuck on 'rules', on page 37 of my 2003 Getting Started Flexpoints book it does say, "Count multiple servings. 0-point foods still have calories. Use your Pointsfinder and nutrition information to figure points if having multiple servings."
That's not nearly as strong as it was in the previous book I have (10% difference), but at least it hasn't been dropped completely.
