**This is no longer the current plan for Weight Watchers**
In order to set yourself up for success on the MyWW Purple Plan, there is a level of preparation you need. My favorite quote is that failing to prepare is preparing to fail. If you spend a weekend afternoon writing out a grocery list, planning your meals and preparing easy grab and go foods, you will find it is easier to stay on track with your MyWW journey. It can seem overwhelming at first, but that's what I'm here for! It all starts with building your MyWW Purple shopping list for the essentials and then finding the recipes that coincide with your tastebuds.
7 Day Meal Plan for MyWW Purple with Shopping List

When you first start planning your meals for the week, you should consider the staples you already have in your home and build your recipes from that list. When you learn the basics of cooking it becomes the building blocks to being creative with healthy cooking in the kitchen. When you are starting your first week on MyWW, it can be overwhelming on finding a place to start. The most obvious items that are essential for your myWW Purple shopping list would be your favorite fruits and vegetables along with items on your300+ list of zero point foods. Check out this guide from Smiley's Points for a free printable zero point list. What else can you include in your shopping list to make your weekly meal planning easier? Let's take a look at what I like to have on hand.
Essential Grocery Items to Always Have On Hand:
- Ground Turkey 99% Fat Free
- Mission Carb Balance Tortillas
- Joseph's Pita Bread or Lavash Bread
- Canadian Bacon
- Eggs
- Shredded and Thinly Sliced Cheese (Fat Free When Possible)
- Your Favorite Fruits and Vegetables for snacking

- Nonfat Greek and Plain Yogurts

What about snacks?
While I was writing the meal plan, I found myself questioning snacks. If you are anything like me, you can't really plan what you will want for snacks. I recommend prepping snacks in the beginning of the week and writing the points on the outside of the bags. Typical snacks can include fruits and vegetables with hummus dips, yogurt cups, pita chips, tortilla chips, pretzels, etc. Yes, you read that right. You can have snack foods like chips as long as you pre-portion them!
