"If you want to be successful on this journey, it helps a lot to build routines that make it easier to stay in your Points® Budget, be active, and get enough sleep. 🥗 🚴‍♀️ 😴 It also helps to know how to deal when something disrupts that routine—whether it’s something great like a full social calendar or a little more ugh like last-minute work travel.

This month, we’re digging into some common things that throw a wrench 🔧 in your routine and the tools that can help you to stay on track anyway. 🧰

Tell us: How do you handle disruptions to your routine? 😎

Dealing with routine disruptions Routines are kinda like GPS on this journey—they can help you navigate what to do or eat next so you don’t have to put in a lot of extra effort. But glitches happen all the time. Here’s how not to get lost.

"If you’re in the market for a delicious new dessert, you’re in luck! Check out this recipe for a Strawberry Strudel Pastry! 🍓

Inspired by our favorite childhood grab-and-go breakfast pastries, these handheld sweet treats will take you right back to mornings running after the school bus. We trimmed 3 Points from the original by replacing the puff pastry crust with ultra flaky sheets of phyllo dough and using a fresh fruit filling that relies mostly on the natural sweetness of berries, while still including a vanilla icing. 🍰

"Quick, think of your fave high-Points® food: Maybe it’s pizza 🍕, ice cream 🍦, cookies 🍪, pasta 🍝. You already know it’s on the menu with WeightWatchers®. But if you find yourself eating more than you—or your Budget—would like, it’s normal to think, “Well, I just won’t eat it at all then!”

Have you noticed that doesn’t work for you? Science says the approach could actually backfire. A better (and more delicious) one: Mapping out a plan ahead of time for how to work hard-to-resist foods into your life—with some guardrails in place, of course.

In this week’s technique, we’ll show you exactly how to do it so you can look forward to enjoying favorites, rather than trying to fight them. 💙 https://www.weightwatchers.com/us/m/cms/stop-avoiding-high-points-foods-and-enjoy

"We talk to ourselves all day long. 💭 When that voice sounds like a coach or a friend, well, the sky’s the limit! But when it’s more of a Debbie Downer or, worse, a bully, you may find it extra hard to reach your goals.

So this month, we’re addressing some of the most common, unhelpful things that voice might be saying to you—from “I have no self-control!” to “I’m too out of shape to be active”—and teaching you solid, stay-on-track strategies that can help you quiet it for good.

Another great topic the week of April 30th:

"Picture this: You haven’t thought about potato chips *at all*…until you spot the bag you bought for your kids’ sleepover on the counter. 👀 You realize your stomach is growling because you’ve been so busy you skipped lunch. So you have a few. Then more. Soon the bag is gone.

If only you had more self-control, right? Wrong—and blaming yourself can do you more harm than good. In this week’s technique, we’re setting the record straight about what actually leads to setbacks and what to focus on instead to learn from those mistakes and set yourself up for future success.🏅

"Veggies are a fundamental component of WeightWatchers. Not only are they a ZeroPoint food, they can also be prepared in a variety of exciting and delicious ways. Whether you’re grilling up zucchini in the summer, or roasting broccoli in the oven, the options for veggies are endless! 🥒🥦

Share your favorite vegetable in the comments (and how you like to prepare it too)! "

"How yummy does this recipe for Italian Seafood Salad look?! A trio of fresh seafood—shrimp, bay scallops, and calamari—gently poaches until just tender and soaks in a garlicky, lemony marinade along with crunchy fennel and slivered red onion. It’s a great make-ahead dish, as the flavors need at least a couple of hours to marry; you can make it up to one day in advance. 🦐

"If you’re seeing this, you might be wondering what an NSV is! An “NSV” is a “non-scale victory”, or the small, every day indicators that mark your success. 💪

Sure, keeping track of weight loss is an important part of the program, but acknowledging your progress in other areas can help you be more positive and celebrate your success! 💙

Maybe your clothes fit you better, or it’s easier to walk up the stairs and play with your kids. Whatever they may be, we want to know and celebrate you. Drop your recent NSV in the comments! "

"One of the best things about WeightWatchers® is that you can eat your favorite foods and still lose weight. But you probably picked up some new low-Points® or ZeroPoint® faves as you learned to work the program, right? Well, you can get them to work *even* harder for you.

Yep, even though your go-to juicy roast chicken or Greek yogurt parfait is forever yum, they can still get a little ho-hum. In this week’s technique, we’ve got a way to think about them differently, use them to be even more successful, and ultimately reinvigorate your journey.

"Looking for a new recipe this week? We’ve got you covered! Check out this recipe for Oven-Fried Popcorn Shrimp. 🍤

No need to go to the drive-through for crispy, Louisiana-spiced popcorn shrimp. Our easy oven-fried version can be on your table faster than it would take to get to the restaurant and back. The shrimp is initially dredged in seasoned flour, dipped in egg, and then dredged in the same seasoned flour that’s been mixed with panko for extra crunch. Served with cocktail sauce, it’s extremely munchable. 😋

"You don’t eat your veggies plain and raw every time, right? 🥦 No, you add spices and air fry ‘em, dip ‘em in stuff, put ‘em in soups or stews….🍲 The result: They’re more tempting, delicious, and exciting to eat.
This week's topic: Temptation Bundling - Pair one unpleasant activity with a pleasant one.

In this week’s technique, we’re talking about finding the right “special sauce” for the behaviors and routines that lead to weight loss but that you aren’t exactly eager to dig into. Doing so can make them more palatable and keep you excited and engaged on the way to your goals. 💫

"We have a special surprise for this week’s recipe… A Crustless Vanilla Cheesecake that’s, get this, zero Points! 🎂

The main ingredient in this dessert is nonfat cottage cheese, which purees to a smooth texture and lends the dessert a flavor similar to cream cheese. The finished dish ends up as a dead ringer, flavor and texture wise, for a ricotta cheesecake. While we love this vanilla version, you could go in a citrus direction by stirring in a tablespoon of lemon zest. 🍰

"When you notice the scale moving, um, not where you want it, there’s no need to sound the alarm. Weight gains happen—this journey isn’t a straight line. Still, whether you’re facing a normal fluctuation or steeper upward trend, we get that it can feel frustrating.

What can help you keep your cool and reverse the trend: Having an action plan in place *before* you’re faced with a weight gain.✅ We’re sharing how to put one together, when to use it, and more in this week’s technique. https://www.weightwatchers.com/us/m/cms/how-do-i-handle-small-weight-gain

Tell us: What helps you respond to small weight gains?💡 "

How do I handle a small weight gain? TBH, not every gain needs a response; weight fluctuations are normal. But if you notice more of an upward trend, remind yourself that those are also normal, then set your action plan into motion. Don’t have one? Let’s fix that.

What ever that choice is, it's all good. I didn't become overweight in one day and I didn't get to goal in one day but everyday I can make a difference for myself. Be kind to all, including yourself. - debw

"In the market for a new and exciting recipe? This could be the one for you! Check out this recipe for Two-Ingredient-Dough Garlic Naan. 😋

Traditional naan is made with a yeast-risen dough and cooked in a tandoor oven. Our quick version uses a dough made of self-rising flour and Greek yogurt and cooks it in a skillet. You end up with tender-chewy flatbreads with those yummy charred “blisters” on the surface. The naan is brushed with garlic butter at the end for an irresistible savory flavor.
