Weight Watchers Flex Plan QuikTrak Express Points Tracker
Submitted by renegadeprincess on Thu, 2008-06-12 09:13.This is a simple, printable version of the Weight Watchers Flex Plan QuikTrak Express Points Tracker that I made. Instead of Activity Points, it has a space for tracking water intake, which I find is more useful.
I print this file on both sides of a sheet of paper, cut it horizontally, fold both halves vertically, stack the pages, and staple in the center to make a booklet. This isn't necessary, though. You can just print the page and have 4 weeks of Points tracking on a single letter-size page.

Print both sides and cut into quarter sheets. Stack them on top of each other and staple in the middle to make a booklet. I used the DIY Planner Widget kit to create this in OpenOffice.
Points Tracker

this template was created using the DIY Planner widget kit 06.
I print it on both sides of the paper and cut the sheet into 4 pieces. stack the pieces on top of each other , fold it in half and staple the middle. I picked up an inexpensive pocket calendar with a leather-like case and use the case to hold my tracker. Hope someone finds it useful.
Daily Food and Water Tracker
Submitted by frano on Mon, 2007-07-30 19:45.Hi,
This is my first attempt at making a template, so apologies if it's not quite up to standards! This form fits on a 3 x 5 card, and allows you to track your food intake for different calorie levels by x'ing boxes to represent portions of different foods. Standard portions according to the Diabetic Assoc'n guidelines were used to match the different calorie levels; distribution of food types for different calorie levels is as per "Weight No More," a program that I took at a local hospital.
I'm attaching three files - the open office source, a "3 x 5" pdf that contains one landscaped image for printing directly to index cards, and a "cardstock" pdf that contains 6 forms. Print two-sided on cardstock and cut them apart; the images line up on top of each other back-to-back. Finished, cut cards are 2.8" x 5.5" - that works okay for me but you may want to trim for 5" width.
Thanks to:
- Jordan McGilvray, whose weekly meal log form on this site provided guidance on how to make attractive tables;
- Jorge Cruise, whose book 8 Minutes in the Morning provided inspiration for the "draw the line at the desired calorie level and eat what's on the left side of the line idea; and
- Miriam Nelson, whose book Strong Women Stay Slim provided guidance on number of servings for different calorie levels.
Draw a solid vertical line immediately to the right of your desired daily calorie level. The boxes to the left of the line represent your allowed portions of those food groups for the day. "X" in each box as you eat a standard portion of that food; when the boxes are full you are done eating (or else you are cheating!). Also includes 8 boxes for water intake - standard 8 oz cup per box.

WW Flex Point Tracker - Seven Days Across Two Facing Pages (Classic)
Submitted by thehelmsagency on Mon, 2007-04-23 15:17.This template allows the user to track their daily points as well as daily water, oil, milk and fruit and vegetable intake. There is also a place for tracking weekly flex points and activity points.
The thing I like about this layout is that all seven days of the week are in view at one time with Days 1 through 4 on the left page and Days 5 through 7 on the right.
The downside is that the available space for notations is small as compared with WW's own tracker. The upside is that it fits right in my planner.
Enjoy!
Use to track your WW flex points

Meal Planner Template
Submitted by ultravox on Mon, 2006-03-20 02:32.A template for planning out a week's worth of dinners.
Updated: Version 1.1 now includes pages that go from Sun-Sat and Mon-Sun.
At my house we sit down on Saturday and plan out the meals for the next week. What we cook can be based on who is able to cook on which evenings or who can setup the crock-pot in the morning.
We used to just scribble on a piece of paper, but this form has space for a mail course (and what cookbook it's in and which page it's on) a vegetable course, dessert and notes.
There is also a check list where you can note Special Ingredients to be put on your weekly shopping list.
WW Points Log Version 2
Submitted by Scrunchins on Wed, 2006-03-15 20:12.This is more an update to the already great points log that's here. I've just changed the format so it's more like the points trackers that they give out at the meetings/weigh-ins. There is now a "Deposit" column for earned activity points and the weekly points allowance section is now numbered. I also really wanted to do a page 2 for the log as well as a 2-up version for easy printing.
This is a "from scratch" version of the log using the D*I*Y Planner Widget Kit and it couldn't have been easier. Thanks Doug, et. al. for a great system and a great site. I just went back to paper from a PalmOS device that I used for six frustrating years in various models - and I was a PalmOS application developer!
Use in good health! :-)
My Grocery Shopping List
Submitted by SusanBeth on Tue, 2006-01-24 15:21.
I should probably start by saying that I hate grocery shopping. On the other hand, my household insists on eating, and we can't afford to hire a housekeeper or eat out every single meal or even exist on takeout, which means someone has to buy groceries. My husband offered to take on the job if I'd take over maintenance on the cars. Uh...
Given that I was stuck with the job, I decided to put some organizational skills to work to smooth out the process as much as possible. In particular, I wanted to eliminate the two hassles that irritated me the most:
1) I wanted a way to create a complete list of the groceries that were needed. No more emergency runs to the store for that forgotten strawberry jelly and two cans of tuna!
2) I wanted to progress through the store efficiently. No backtracking from the Dairy section all the way back to Produce because I forgot to get the raisins while I was there!
I've been tinkering with my system for nearly a year now, and I thought I'd share the current version. It seems to be mostly working well, but suggestions for improvement would be most welcome. (Yes, you really must hate a chore to devote this much time to minimizing it.)
