Point System for Healthy Foods Eaten
Guess fitclick has stopped issuing points for some healthy foods....I tracked water at Breakfast and it registered but it did not register the point when I had it for snack and lunch......along with lots of other foods=---lettuce, tomato, skim milk, etc. Are ya'll having the same problem?

Daily Healthy Foods Points Cap
We had some complaints from users and looked at some actions of users and decided that some were abusing the system to generate points. So we decided to cap "healthy foods" tracking points at 15 per day. When it was enacted last night it was placed as 10 points per day but we're going to make the adjustment today to 15. Once you reach the cap the healthy items will not appear in the news feed (until you add more the next day).

Less work!
I guess now instead of tracking individual fruits you can now just track "fruit salad"---

Rem, Points aren't the most important thing.
The most important thing for me, is knowing exactly how many cals, carbs, fat, sodium I intake daily. Fitclick tracker has been a life saver for me in that arena. For a while I got caught up in it, but It's not a contest, is it? I mean except for leaderboarders. Not an "I am better, faster, thinner, million dollar man/woman" thing is it? Let's hope not. I couldn't care less about a point or not. Maybe the whole bickering about points and minutia is why BaySt. Girl Flew away from here. I somehow can't blame her.

Point system has energized me
I have been at my goal weight for over 6 mths....point system has gotten me to "DRINK MY MILK!!!!" Didn't realize how much I missed drinking milk until it gave me a point and I drank it....Also, I have been eating so many more fruits and veggies which are never bad for a body. The point system is a motivator for me and believe me I need motivation. When you've reached your goal you need something to keep you going

Points don't get me to do anything...
I wouldn't already do. Getting a point has no effect on whether or not I would ingest it. Sounds a bit silly to me. But to each his own.
