One of the best ways to stay on track with any diet plan is to plan ahead. Meal planning for most does play a huge part in their overall success with losing weight. This Printable WW FreeStyle SmartPoints Meal Plan is a great way to plan out your week of meals. It includes a full day of food including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks that fit under the lowest 23 SmartPoints per day allowance currently with the WW FreeStyle Plan.

These recipes have all been calculated for the latest version of the Weight Watchers program. Currently (2019) Weight Watchers plans are called FreeStyle in the United States, Flex in the United Kingdom, and Your Way in Australia. These plans are all the same just under a different name in different countries. The way food is counted is by points which are currently called SmartPoints.
How Many SmartPoints Do I Get?
The common daily amount of SmartPoints for the majority of those on Weight Watchers is 23 SmartPoints per day, however that varies depending on your weight, height, age, and if you are male or female. Since this is the lowest amount anyone would be given, our menu plans are based around 23 point days. You can add a second serving, extra snacks, or even dessert to reach your daily healthy point range goals. The healthy range on the current plans is between 10 below to 5 above your daily point allowance. For more information about the current WW plans, make sure to check out their formal plan online, or visit a location to join a meeting.

Get honest with yourself in the kitchen
I have mentioned many times, how important it is, to be honest with yourself, but this is one more reminder about being honest in the kitchen. Measuring your portions is vital for your success. While I follow Weight Watchers and don’t limit my healthy vegetable intake, I do realize that if we are eating items that are higher in calories or points, it is important to measure and track those foods accurately. Not doing so can lead to stalls in weight loss. Be honest with yourself. Invest in that kitchen scale and those measuring cups above, and make sure you are truly tracking what you put into your mouth.
