55 Healthy Weight Watchers Recipes (With SmartPoints!) (2024)

25K Shares

Weight Watchers is one of the most popular and effective diets because unlike the other trendy weight loss programs, no food is strictly off limits. On top of that, there are thousands of delicious Weight Watchers recipes with points available for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desserts, so you never feel like you’re missing out!

55 Healthy Weight Watchers Recipes (With SmartPoints!) (1)

Weight Watchers works by assigning foods a point value. Nutritious, healthy foods that are more filling have fewer points than junk food that’s full of empty calories.

With the new WW Freestyle program, points can be carried over to the next day, and there are over 200 “zero points” food choices.

The goal is to point you toward making healthier food choices for the long term. Weight Watchers is more of a lifestyle than a trendy diet.

And it works.

One thing I love about Weight Watchers is that you don’t have to sign up to reap the benefits of the program.

I will tell you that your chances of succeeding are greater if you do attend meetings in some form of fashion-online or in person, but if that doesn’t fit into your schedule or your budget that’s perfectly fine.

As long as you eat what’s allowed in your daily point “budget” you will see results!

Try to find a friend (accountability partner) to give you moral support when you need it. Because you will need it! See, I’ve lost 145 pounds and I know it isn’t easy. But it is worth the effort!

Psst!!!! My new book, Rebel Keto, explains every detail of how I lost the weight on keto –without doing macro math at every meal.If you are a woman who is tired of trendy diet B.S. and you need a real-world roadmap to help you get healthy (low-carb style), Rebel Keto will be your new best friend. Check it out HERE.

Ok! If you’re planning out your weekly meals and adding up those points I’ve collected these Weight Watchers meals to help you get started!

You’ll find healthy (and quick) breakfast recipes to kickstart your day and keep you full until noon, lunch options that are packable and easy to prepare, and the most amazing Weight Watchers dinner recipes I’ve ever seen! Plus snacks and dessert. Because you’ve gotta enjoy life, right?
