A note about WW Points<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n\n
All recipe points have been updated to reflect the new WW program, <\/strong>points will display under the recipe title. I will keep the ww button<\/strong> in the recipe card, click on that and it takes you to the Weight Watchers website where you can see the recipe builder used to determine those points and add it to your day (US only, you must be logged into your account). All cookbook recipes in the cookbook index are also updated!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nAbout The Meal Plan<\/h2>\n If you\u2019re new to my meal plans, I\u2019ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room<\/strong> for you to add more food<\/strong>, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. Depending on your goals, you should aim for at least 1500 calories* per day. There\u2019s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.<\/p>\nThere\u2019s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You\u2019ll dine out less often, waste less food and you\u2019ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.<\/p>\n
