Corrections to Getting Started:

- p. 27 - 2 tsp of olive, canola, safflower, sunflower, or flaxseed oil will

be added (in future printings) to the oils list in place of statement in

italics underneath list.

- p. 38 – WW Smoothie should specify made with WATER not milk

Week 4 Cooking with Turnaround – ground turkey should be checked CORE

Action sheet for higher protein or higher carb menus – All Bran cereal and

ground “meat” substitute should be checked CORE

9/10/2004 8:56:45 AM MISCELLANEOUS:

- game meats are NOT considered core at this time but will be evaluated

- 94% ff KETTLE corn is not considered core due to abuse potential

- CORE FOODS ARE NOT ZERO POINT FOODS. i.e., a non-core food such as a

serving of ff Cook Whip or some low cal breads are NOT core even if it has 0

points

- When using Core ingredients to make recipes, the finished product should

be a Core food. For example using cornmeal, eggs, Splenda and fat-free milk

to make corn bread or corn muffins is not OK as bread products including

muffins, tortillas etc. are not Core foods. Making ice cream from fat-free

milk and Splenda is not OK because ice cream is not a Core food.

- Sugar free gum is core – chew away much as you want

- juice from a juicer using core foods is not core – juice is never core

- Whole-wheat pasta with the word “enriched” preceding it is still a Core

food.

- The oils listed are recommended as they are a good source of Vitamin E.

Oil capsules or seeds (flaxseeds) cannot be substituted.

- For the Flex Plan, members will need to count 2 tsp of the recommended

oils as part of their Daily POINTS Target or weekly POINTS Allowance.

- Low-carb pastas and pasta made from any grain other than whole wheat are

not Core foods.

- Flour of any kind is not a Core food, which means that oatmeal and

cornmeal ground into flour are not Core.

- Fat-free half and half, fat-free Cool Whip and fat-free cream cheese are

not Core foods.

- Fresh roasted turkey or roast beef cooked at the deli are Core.

- Fast food fried chicken can be considered Core if all skin and coating is

removed before eating.

- Fat-free sugar free (light) yogurts are not Core foods due to their abuse

potential.

- Bread is not a Core food even if it has 0-POINTS.

9/10/2004 8:57:48 AM Some of these are typos on WW part and a lot of the

clarifications are due to abuses of the Core program going on by members.

Those crafty little members! Nope, can't grind oats into out flour.

Don't get mad at WW, the Core program was intended to be simple and basic,

to teach us to get in touch with our satiety signals, and get us to eat

Mother Nature's foods rather than conveyor belt foods.

-- corrections to Core plan

I saw on another site, a list of corrections for the Core Foods list.

Has anyone else seen anything on this. It was for the " Complete Food

Companion " new book and for the " Getting Started booklet, the new

one. I decided to print it off and will check it with my new books.
