I asked my WW leader about FF Cool Whip today and she said that it IS core. This is my first day on Core (I was on Flex for several months). Plus she said that tomato soup isn't Core but the book says it is. I'm confused, HELP!!!!!

fat free Cool Whip is NOT core, but you can have one single serving a day for 0 points.
Tomato soup IS core, your leader has core issues ;D

so sorry to inform you but yes, she was wrong about the ff half and half! Try skim evaporated milk or a spoonful of ff dried milk powder. Those ARE core  |

Are you kidding me?? This is ridiculous. I'm gonna totally lose it if you tell me that the Yoplait light (fat free) flavored yogurt is not core like she said it was!!!!!

Flavored yogurt is not core. Only FF plain yogurt is core. Sorry...sad but true.

I'm so upset. Thinking they were ALL core, I had some of each today. I didn't want to use any points cuz I'm saving some up for Friday night. Thanks, everyone, for replying so quickly.

You might want to change leaders!  |

Wow, I'll say the leader has core issues. Your best bet is definitely to go by the book! And I think that the WW core board generally gets faster turnover than here - although Kippy's ladies are fairly speedy! So if you have a question that needs fast answers, I'd head over there. These gals are unbeatable as far as support goes though!
Hang in there - the first week is kind of spent figuring things out anyhow (for me it was more like the first three because I'm a bit slow : . Take some solice in the fact that over the course of the whole week, the tablespoon of coolwhip and creamer won't kill your efforts, and if you didn't gorge on tons of flavored yogurt that won't likely change the scale either. Just learn from it, and be happy that you'll never again mistake those things for core! 
You'll be just fine - just keep in mind it is all a learning process, in addition to the weight loss part! Not only learning about core, but about yourself. Once you get used to the little unexpected discoveries, it's fun!

I think this leader needs to read the materials. Wow talk about wrong information.
Cris you gave really good advice. The first week or two really is a testing period to learn the program, just remember that everything is a step in the right direction.
Mrsed, you will get it all figured out, and you'll be fine.

I would just amend one thing Cris said---the WW core board might be fast, but frankly, newbie questions such as these are met with snotty remarks and a terse "go read your materials". If you are at all sensitive, don't ask newbie questions over there, you might get bashed.

Thanks so much for your advice, everyone. I did write the WW boards and so far I haven't been bashed. To tell you the truth, I was expecting to be bashed. People need to realize that if everyone had all the answers, none of us would need the boards at all. Amen??? My WW meetings are here at work so it's convenient. The leader we had yesterday was a substitute. Boy, did I pick the wrong leader to get info on my first day on Core!!! haha
