HOW TO MAKE THANKSGIVING A SUCCESS ON WW

Anyone who is trying to lose weight starts to get nervous early in November because the 2 biggest “eating” months have arrived!

November and December are full of food temptations.

The biggest way to make Thanksgiving a success on WW is to plan ahead with Weight Watchers Thanksgiving recipes.

Did you hear me? You have to PLAN ahead! 🙂

I know it is a busy time of year, but a little planning can make the difference between staying on plan and veering off the road completely.

PLAN A WEIGHT WATCHERS THANKSGIVING MENU

We know that Weight Watchers allows us to eat anything.

There are so many amazing recipes out there that will help you create healthier alternatives to some of your favorite high calorie holiday dishes.

Planning a Weight Watchers Thanksgiving menu full of healthier recipes is key to a successful holiday.

Once you know what types of food you are going to be making you can start working on the menu.

Will you be cooking the WHOLE meal or just a few dishes?

Plan out as many healthy dishes as you can and stick to lower point foods to fill up the gaps!

Remember that low-fat white turkey meat is a WIN-WIN for WW!
