Woo hoo! The myWW Purple Plan is HERE! And the plan has more than 300 Zero Point foods? WHAT?! This is great… but not so fast: Zero Points does NOT equal zero carbs or calories. What does that mean? It means we need to watch how much and how many of these foods we are eating, or we may not have success with Weight Watchers.

myWW Purple Plan Zero Point Food List With Serving Sizes, Calories, and Carbs
These Zero Point foods are the base of many of my meals. I always watch my portions (grab my portions cheat sheet) and I keep carb count in mind. Carbs are not my friend! I don’t do Keto, and though you can do Keto Weight Watchers, I do low to mid carbs.
Note: 99% of the data in this sheet comes from nutrionata.self.com a great resource for tracking all of the nutritional information in the foods you eat 🙂 If you see a mistake, email me at smileyspoints AT gmail.com

I am very confused when it come to peanuts. It is a legume and I love them. I would like to know can I have a 1/2 cup like beans on the purple plan. We are talking the same calories and the studies say that they do not put on weight when on a calorie counting diet which I can do on the purple plan. What is your view?
Peanuts are actually higher in protein content than Black beans and lower in Carbohydrates. I do not know why myWW has them at 13 points per 1/2 cup and black beans are zero on Purple. I think the idea is you are more likely to overeat peanuts than black beans. Legumes, in general, tend to be high in carbs but your ability to overeat peanuts versus the other legumes may be the answer as to why there is such a difference. If you personally do not have an issue with portion control I would say eating 1/2 a cup of peanuts is fine. Remember this is just my opinion. Have an awesome day and stay safe.
Thanks for all your hard work and effort. I’m leaving WW as I can’t get a grip on the new plan. Even though they make “ allowances for eating your vegs… if I use my extra points I gain weight. No more Purple. But I purchased their free style and several other WW cookbooks to keep me focused and I believe your hard work here will be a great help for me. .
