Hosted party: weight watchers morning glow party

spending some time with my favorite people!
Weight Watchers is one of the best weight loss programs I've had experience with. Ive never been a paying member, but my mom has been most of my life. I remember her going to meeting when I was younger, and she fairly recently started going back again. She lost over 100 pounds by eating better and getting active. I got the chance to try out their new smart points app (not related to this hosted party event!) and it was really neat to see how points were calculated and helped me cut down on late night snacks and make better eating choices. When crowdtap announced a chance to host a weight water party, I jumped on it. With the new year, a bunch of my family and close friends have a healthier life style as a new years resolution--and what a fun way to kick it off!! The idea behind the party was a morning brunch--we turned it into a dinner party. For the party,c rowdtap supplied us with some fun goodies:

weight watcher party it!
Included was a neat spa kit for me (hostess gift! yes!), a pretty table decoration, a glowing backdrop, a selfie stick (!!!), glow sticks, beach balls (we stuck the glow sticks inside and had a blast!), journals, and most importantly: a recipe book! For the party (check out a sample of weight watcher recipes here), I made raspberry-peach smoothies (six points) and blue berry-peach cornmeal cupcakes (six points) as well as a low fat baked ziti entree for dinner (8 points) and some cheesy tots for the kids (I swear!). The cornmeal cupcakes were amazing! I made them mini-sized to make a cute 3 point snack (and they came cleanly out of the pan! woohoo!). The smoothie was good, I am in desperate need of a new blender (I found this out the hard way, of course!) so it was a bit thick, but tasted really good. I'll have to revisit once I replace my blender. overall, it was a fun night. We all got to talk and motivate each other, share some recipes, take some fun photos, and play with glowing balls! Check out our photos below!
