A free 7-day, flexible weight loss meal plan including breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas and a shopping list. All recipes include macros and Weight Watchers points.
Free 7 Day Healthy Meal Plan (June 24-30)
Let’s talk about drinks that help us stay cool in this crazy summer heat, (which has only just begun!) First of all, always make sure you drink enough water daily and stay hydrated! Have a great start to your day with a nutritious Green Monster Smoothie or this Triple Berry Smoothie. Need a cooling pick me up during the day- try this refreshing Chia Watermelon Fresca. Then watch the sunset while sipping on this Skinny Cuban Mojito or my Zero-Proof Jalapeño Paloma for the perfect end to your day. Enjoy!
If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve 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 for you to add more food, 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’s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.
There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.
Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing! If you wish to get on the email list, you can subscribe here so you never miss a meal plan!
