A free 7-day, flexible weight loss meal plan including breakfast, lunch and dinner and a shopping list. Recipes include macros and WW Points.
7-Day Healthy Meal Plan
Why Should Everyone Meal Plan?
Meal planning is a great way to organize your meals for the week ahead. You also save time and money in the supermarket! And of course, planning ahead helps you stick to your goals!
About The Meal Plan
If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room for you to add more food, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. You should aim for around 1500 calories* per day.
There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.
Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing! If you wish to get on the email list, you can subscribe here so you never miss a meal plan!
Also, if you don’t have the Skinnytaste Meal Planner, now would be a great time to get one to get organized for 2020! There was a print error last year, but it’s perfect now! You can order it here!
THE DETAILS:
Breakfast and lunch Monday-Friday, are designed to serve 1 while dinners and all meals on Saturday and Sunday are designed to serve a family of 4. Some recipes make enough leftovers for two nights or lunch the next day. While we truly believe there is no one size fits all meal plan, we did our best to come up with something that appeals to a wide range of individuals. Everything is Weight Watchers friendly, I included the updated WW Blue SP for your convenience, feel free to swap out any recipes you wish or just use this for inspiration!
The grocery list is comprehensive and includes everything you need to make all meals on the plan. I’ve even included brand recommendations of products I love and use often. Cross check your cabinets because many condiments you’ll notice I use often, so you may already have a lot of them.
And last, but certainly not least, this meal plan is flexible and realistic. There’s plenty of wiggle room for cocktails, healthy snacks, dessert and dinner out. And if necessary, you can move some things around to make it work with your schedule. Please let me know if you’re using these plans, this will help me decide if I should continue sharing them!

I discovered your meal plans a few weeks ago and have been using them religiously ever since! Please do continue, it’s made an impact on my whole family.
I’ve posted before to say thank you but I wanted to post again to say….THANK YOU!!!! From the bottom of my heart for these meals, my family and I love them.Â
Thanks Brooke! I am glad you find them helpful!
I am anxious to try the meal planÂ
I love these so much! Thank you for providing them to us!
Love your meal plans and recipes! Â Â I just got a printer. Â When you print the grocery shopping list does the meal plan print with it? Â Â Thank you.
No, just the shopping list.
I love the weekly meal plan.  I find that not having to think about what we’re having for dinner every night has been life changing.  However, I feel as though the last two weeks have been light on the vegetables and low on proteins.  I find I’m very hungry at the end of the day.  I miss those veggie loaded dinners and high protein lunches that kept me satisfied all day.Â
Thank you for your meal planning guides! I plan my weekly menu off what you share and we all love your recipes! Thank you and never stop doing what you do!
I’ve tried 4 different times now to JUST PRINT SHIPPING LIST. I either get the whole 19 pages and now I unchecked the pages I don’t want leaving just 5 pages I wanted and I got all the gibberish at the end of the page.. what’s the trick,?? I’m wasting a lot of ink and paper???
When I click the Print Shopping List button it only pulls 3 pages into my print preview to even have the option to print. That’s odd!
When you click the print shopping list button, it should bring up only the list.
