Weight Watchers Weekly Dinner Menu Plan - Dec 30th - Jan 4th

If you follow me on Instagram (link to that is in the upper right hand corner of this blog) I started posting a weekly menu plan for dinner. Every Sunday for the month of January,  I will post that here along with a grocery list for you and points listed. These are all my recipes that have accumulated on my blog. I love menu planning but I don't like to meal prep. I've tried the whole meal prep thing before and it came down to the fact that I don't like to eat the same thing over and OVER again every night. That got to be really boring.

Since posting my dinner plan to Instagram, I've come to really enjoy planning my dinners for the week and I think this is something I'll continue doing. Menu planning saves on multiple trips to the grocery store. It also helps cut back on grocery costs and reduces waste. Over the last year, I've learned how to scale back on recipes and only cook for one person. A lot of recipes online are meant for an entire family and so are meal prep recipes.

Lunch and Breakfast Plan

My morning routine is like this. I'll wake up at around 7am and get ready to head to the gym. I leave around 8 and my water class is at 8:30. I don't get home until around 10:30 and usually I'm not hungry until then. I'll make a smoothie or breakfast sandwich. For the day. Just thought I'd share since some of you might wonder what I eat for breakfast and lunch.
