I have NEVER gotten emotional over a diet in a positive way, but this time I did. THANK YOU. I'm so tired of gurus recommending expensive, weird food or not giving great examples of exactly what to eat. But your ideas are terrific! We have to go into a hotel soon. We will have a fridge and microwave. They have a toaster in the breakfast area. I can see using your ideas for wonderful, healthy meals! Thank you so much.
Awww....thanks so much, Jennifer. I appreciate your kind words. And YES, it doesn't have to be expensive or complicated or weird. It's all about consistency and eating in moderation, while enjoying life and not letting "oh no, I shouldn't eat this" comments be the focus of your life. You've got this!!! 😊
I’m retired too. But I am going to try this too. I always wait too long to fix lunch or dinner and then I just grab stuff and the point can really add up quickly.
I agree!!! Sometimes I think, oh, I didn't have much today - I just grazed. But then when you add it up, it will surprise you! Thanks Barbara! Hope it works for you. :)
This was awesome! The timing was perfect because now I can prep Sunday for this week ahead. Thank you soooo much! Also good to know on the premier protein! Stay blessed! 💕
Our garbage pickup is Friday also so I love cleaning out the fridge to prep for the fresh foods. We just got a new fridge and it’s bigger than what I expected. Today I bought organizing bins from Marshall’s. Helps keep things together. I love your containers with the sections. Great video. I’m a new subscriber and I look forward to more videos. Thank you:)
Hi Tricia, and welcome! Thanks so much for subscribing! :) I love using bins in the fridge and pantry - I just have cheap dollar store bins though. I am on the hunt for some new ones at least for the fridge.
This is a favorite, Kristi! I especially love the lunches you put together. I usually have those items in my refrigerator. I feel like by having a variety of foods to eat, I can enjoy it more. I do prefer hard boiled eggs. The instant pot is definitely the way to make them. I need to start meal prepping my lunches for sure now. Going on a 12 hour road trip soon, and this would be perfect for it! Thank you!😊
Love the boxes, I overwhelm myself though wanting all the veggies. I get masking tape and use that to label my containers because it doesn't leave residue
I love the lunchable ideas for work. In your description you didn't list the little square and round containers for the hummus and dressing. Could you tell us what they are so I can order some? Thank you!
I am a water girl! I drink about 10 glasses of water every day in addition to my 2 cups of coffee in the morning. Once in a while I may have a Diet Coke.
Thanks so much! That song is called One Ride by Roy Williams. I found it on Epidemic Sound, which is what I use for my music. I find so many different songs on there that I've never heard. :)
Hi there and welcome! :) This video is based on the newest version that started in November. Everyone has the same zero point foods and all the foods are the same points - except for those on the diabetic plan - that one doesn't have fruit, yogurt, popcorn, or cottage cheese as zero.
Do you have a shopping list posted for this by chance? I found your channel today and I am very interested in this. I current plan meals and shop for a week for groceries but with a toddler and baby and starting a new job I need to do more prep
Hi Jennifer, and welcome! I'm so glad you found me. I'm sorry - I don't have a shopping list posted. It's something I've always wanted to add - like a link to my website or something - but with working full time outside the home, I just haven't been able to make it happen. I completely understand the little ones. We had our 4-year-old grandson and 19-month old granddaughter for 4 days last weekend and we were whooped after!! Congrats on your new job too!!
Hi there! At the end of each meal in the video, I usually share the points and calories. But always track your specific foods as brands can be different. 😊 Thanks!
I do if I use regular cucumbers. I find the English cucumbers and the mini ones are much better. And I don't mix them in with anything. Like if I make a salad for lunch, I'll keep the cucumbers in a separate section and then mix them in when I go to eat it.
Hi Nancy! Click your little picture or the person icon at the top right of the app and then you should see where it says 24/7 coaching, saved, find a workshop, and invite a friend. Click that invite a friend and then the next screen you will hit invite friends and it should have a link you can share. Hope that helps. :)
Amazon! I love it! I have it linked in the description box. I just moved it to the top of the list of Amazon links so you don't have to look through the whole list. :)
Amazon! I will link it in the description box - I just checked and it's only $16.99. I bought it almost three years ago and wear it every day and it's only just now starting to show small signs of wear on the bottom. At first I thought it was tarnish but now I'm realizing it's wear my wrist lays on my laptop edge. So, I think maybe it's just from rubbing - maybe rubbing the gold color off. So worth it though!
Thank you so much, Janet! Yes! I love it even for the days that I work from home - just go to the fridge, grab my food and that's it. So easy and no stress of what to have, or needing to make something. Hope you love it! :)
She meticulously washes everything, avoids letting her almonds touch the unwashed drink container....then plunges her acrylic nails straight into that olive jar and grabs up some olives with her bare hands. Wtf? Girl, get a spoon or some chopsticks.
You are not counting any points for your fruit. Is this an older program? When I input grapes on my app it shows points. I just started this week and haven't been to a meeting yet.
I've never tried the Dannon Light & Fit yogurt smoothies but I think I'll pick them up the next time I'm grocery shopping. I usually have a premier protien for an afternoon snack so maybe I'll mix it up a bit! (I'm such a ceature of habbit. Greek yogurt, blueberries and ground flax seed every day for breakfast. But I LOVE it!! Thanks for all the great ideas my friend!!
Let me know what you think of the smoothies! I really like them. And I know what you mean about being a creature of habit. I find myself going through spurts. I'll be on a kick eating the same thing for a while, then I switch to something else for a while. LOL Thanks so much, my friend! 💕
thanks for the idea friend will definitely be making those everything look good keep bringing the videos on such great context hello to u and all the family don't forget the little doggie In God we trust God blesses us all!!!!!!
We are also well into retirement, but a lot of your ideas I’m looking forward in trying. Still looking for the Light and Fit yogurt smoothies,haven’t found them yet, even looked at Sam today but they just had the yogurt cups🤷♀️ Maybe I’ll try Target. Thanks for the great videos👍🏻
Thanks so much, Laura! I hope you can find those somewhere! I wonder if they are just new and haven't made it everywhere yet. Our Walmart is the only place I have seen them.
Thanks for a GREAT meal prep…a rainbow of colors & ideas! I’m like you on the HB eggs…I always do mine 7 mins. Did you know you can keep apple slices from browning by tossing them in a soda like 7UP or Sprite? It is the citric acid in the drink that helps & I much prefer their sweeter taste over real lemon juice, which I think ruins the apple flavor IMHO. I will definitely try the cake batter Premier Protein next. I just bought some strawberry to use in my Ninja Creami. So far, chocolate peanut butter combo is my fav! ❤
I am DEFINITELY going to try the chocolate peanut butter - someone else mentioned that was their fav. And I did not know that about apples! I definitely need to try that. I'm like you - I don't care for the flavor the lemon juice gives to the apple. Thanks so much for the idea! 😊💕
I hadn't even thought of bumping it up to see if it would change, but I just checked the app and it's saying 3 for 3 Tbsp. But then when I checked by grams, you can have 37 grams for 2 points - so just shy of 3 Tbsp. I figured it must be close! Thanks! Next time I'll add a little more to my salads! ;)
I'm so glad I found your channel. Love your meal preps because they're realistic no weird foods!!!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you found me too! Welcome!! 😊
Soak apple slices in salt water for 5-10min then rinse well, prevents browning. 1tsp to 1cup water.
Thanks so much!! 😊
Love how colorful your meals are-great job of eating the rainbow! Also, your fridge looks so pretty and organized! Have a great week
Thank you so much, Cheryl! 🤗 Have a great week!

Love these ideas. These are my favorite kind of lunches! No cooking and a little variety of items! Thank you for sharing ☺️
Thanks so much!! We loved them! And I agree - no heating - just grab and eat! 😊
That fridge display!! 💕💕

Everything looks delicious!
Thanks so much!! :)

Michelle, you're a genius!!! 😀 I'm buying masking tape! LOL
@@PlanningUsHealthyThank you. I'm passing the credit to my Grandmother 😇 she was amazing. 🥰
@@michellelynne1199 🤗🤗😚
Great video as always!
Thanks so much, Gail! 😊
I do my eggs 5 minutes in instant pot.
Instant pot is the best way to go, in my opinion! 😊
Some great ideas!!
Thank you! 😊
Very inspiring!
Thanks so much! 😊

🥰🥰
Looks good❤❤❤❤
Thank you 💕💕
I love the lunchable ideas for work. In your description you didn't list the little square and round containers for the hummus and dressing. Could you tell us what they are so I can order some? Thank you!
Hi Kathi! Thanks so much! Those are just little containers I got from The Dollar Tree - you get like ten of them in a package. :)
Please tell what you drink all day…..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am a water girl! I drink about 10 glasses of water every day in addition to my 2 cups of coffee in the morning. Once in a while I may have a Diet Coke.
Thank you sweet girl😀
🤗🤗🤗
I love these ideas! You are so organized. Did you say on another video that you got the yogurt smoothies at Aldi?
Thank you, Sis!! 😊
Love your dragon 😂
Isn't he the coolest?? 🤣
Love it! Thanks for sharing.
What exactly was the title of that first song when you were washing your fruit and veggies for breakfast?
Thanks so much! That song is called One Ride by Roy Williams. I found it on Epidemic Sound, which is what I use for my music. I find so many different songs on there that I've never heard. :)
Looking like a plan...
😊😊 It was so good!
That was great ideals
Thank you Rose! 💕
Where did you get the divided dishes?
I ordered them from Amazon. I have them linked in the description box. 😊
I’m a new subscriber. Do the points still stand today? Don’t they have different levels ?
Hi there and welcome! :) This video is based on the newest version that started in November. Everyone has the same zero point foods and all the foods are the same points - except for those on the diabetic plan - that one doesn't have fruit, yogurt, popcorn, or cottage cheese as zero.

How many points in the meals each
Hi there! At the end of each meal in the video, I usually share the points and calories. But always track your specific foods as brands can be different. 😊 Thanks!
Do you find that cucumbers get mushy after a few days in a meal prepped container? Please give me any secrets to combat this. Thanks!
I do if I use regular cucumbers. I find the English cucumbers and the mini ones are much better. And I don't mix them in with anything. Like if I make a salad for lunch, I'll keep the cucumbers in a separate section and then mix them in when I go to eat it.
@@PlanningUsHealthy Awesome! Thanks!
How can I send my sister Ww info so I get credit for getting her to join? I can’t find it on my appt💖

Where did you get your dragon 🐉 for your insta pot
Amazon! I love it! I have it linked in the description box. I just moved it to the top of the list of Amazon links so you don't have to look through the whole list. :)
Where did you get your watch strap?
Amazon! I will link it in the description box - I just checked and it's only $16.99. I bought it almost three years ago and wear it every day and it's only just now starting to show small signs of wear on the bottom. At first I thought it was tarnish but now I'm realizing it's wear my wrist lays on my laptop edge. So, I think maybe it's just from rubbing - maybe rubbing the gold color off. So worth it though!
@@PlanningUsHealthy thank you! It's lovely 😍
I like this idea. I'm retired but I still think I'll use this idea. Thank you!
Thank you so much, Janet! Yes! I love it even for the days that I work from home - just go to the fridge, grab my food and that's it. So easy and no stress of what to have, or needing to make something. Hope you love it! :)
I'm not on weightwatchers but definitely need to cut down on my intake of unhealthy stuff so I really appreciate this video. ❤
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed it. 😊
She meticulously washes everything, avoids letting her almonds touch the unwashed drink container....then plunges her acrylic nails straight into that olive jar and grabs up some olives with her bare hands. Wtf? Girl, get a spoon or some chopsticks.
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. 😉
I like to roll a dill pickle inside a slice of Turkey with mustard! Yum!
That sounds so good! I will definitely be adding a pickle next time!
You are not counting any points for your fruit. Is this an older program? When I input grapes on my app it shows points. I just started this week and haven't been to a meeting yet.
No, fruits are 0 for me. If you're on diabetic plan, then you have to count them.
I add baking soda to my water before boiling my eggs to hard boil. They peel very easily.
Never heard of that! Will have to try it. Thanks! 😊
You make meal prep look fun and easy
Thank you, Vanessa! It can definitely be fun and easy! :)
Amen!
❤️❤️
what are you using to wash fruits and veggies? thank you
I just use water and white vinegar, but honestly, water works just as well. :)
Thank you...a great motivator for me!
So glad you enjoyed it!! 😊😊
Wow, you are so organised!
Thank you! 😊 I try, but definitely not all the time! LOL
I love the dragon❤
LOL Thank you!! :)
How did u end up using the lavash bread at lunch?
I just ate it plain one day and then put the meat in it the other days. :)
Do u toast the pita breads in the toaster and what do u put on it for breakfast meals
I love these adult lunchables! I have been looking for ideas for hot summer days.
Thank you! I need to come up with more ideas, and soon!! :)
@@PlanningUsHealthy I think these will really help me out with portion control as well. Thank you so much for making this video.
how do you like using white vinegar to help clean the produce?
Honestly, it's just something I've done for years. My grandmother taught me to do that. But I've heard that plain old water works just as well.
I've never tried the Dannon Light & Fit yogurt smoothies but I think I'll pick them up the next time I'm grocery shopping.

The breakfast bento boxes and lunchables are such a great idea. I want to try the pizza peppers too. Thanks for sharing so many great ideas Kristi! 😊
Thanks so much!! We loved how simple these were - no fuss and no heating! And I just saw your name and said, hey, I was just talking to her on FB! 🤣
Great meal prep! Everything looked amazing! 💕💕
Thanks so much Tracy! ❤
I'm a hard boiled egg girl. I love making them in my instant pot.
Yes!! I think even the texture of them is better - they seem so much smoother!

I believe you can do 3 T of bolt house for 2 pts. I do Healthi so it may be different for WW. Love your videos!
