Hi friends! I just returned from a family vacation in Punta Cana. We stayed at the Nickelodeon All-Inclusive Resort in Punta Cana and had a blast! But, after a week of eating and drinking, I’m ready to get back on track this week!
Pictured above is The Skinnytaste Meal Planner where I plan my dinners for the week (you can of course use any meal planner). Meal planning is a great way to get organized before heading to the supermarket to get ready for the week! My breakfast is usually something quick like eggs with fruit, a smoothie or avocado toast. We’re a family of four, so if a recipe serves more, it’s either packed up for everyone’s lunch or eaten the next day as leftovers. If you would like to see some of the previous week’s dinner plans, click here

I love your website and books. I was a weight watchers success with the old points system but have really struggled with the new one. Are you still following the points? Do you have any suggestions in the change?Â
I love all your recipes I have tried so far. Only trouble I have is finding some of the ingredients. I live in a small town. Also, I don’t know where you live but some of Weight of like chicken are impossible to find. 3 1/2 oz drumstick is unheard of. Also you use avocados a lot. I am allergic to them any recommendation for a substitute would be welcome.
