Menu
 | Hi, AmArtist. The menus generated by the Menu Planner generally do not have seasonings and sauces in them, but you absolutely can add 1-3 teaspoons of something, depending on how much fat and salt are in it. |
| | Hi, SwampRat. Thanks for the great input – I have forwarded your exact post to our development team. |
 | Hi All, I had a few problems when I got started as I couldn’t fnd a lot of items here in middle italy but each item started on your meal planner should have a little refresh at the end, if you don’t like the item you can change to an alternative, which works a treat for me. good luck |
| | Hi, Lisa. It will become more and more important that you focus on protein and good fats in your diet. |
 | For those of you looking for a height/weight chart here is a link: Regards |
| | I like the menu planer, you can select each item and choose an alternative. I started with a rating of 85 but after “fine tuning” I’m now at 91. I agree that the shopping list could be improved. I created a spread sheet, added the items, quantity for each day and then a total quantity for each item based on cup, ounce, each. I also itemized the items in the list based on type, I print it out and then start at the entrance of the store and work my way around. If you could do that,”should not take too much changing of the template” then I think people will be much happier. As an observation it looks like the site is hosted in the US but has an EU “flavor” to it based on reading the forums. If this is the case it should make for interesting/challenging forum to read and for your staff to support due to the differences i.e metric vs standard and different social outlooks.I for one “a New Englander” relay like the site, although I had to get used to the forum layout. Well enough of my blabbering, adding a more user friendly shopping list would be a plus but so far that’s my only negative to the site, keep up the good work and I’m glad I found this site. Regards |
 | The menus generated by the menu planner are just weird. The main reason I joined was for this because I am expending so much energy all the time and I get tired. I want to make sure I get all the nutrients I need and have a healthy diet. I am not overweight by any stretch of the imagination but I would like to loose a few pounds however I am happy to do this slowly. As a veggie who isn’t eating dairy or wheat at the minute it is always going to be difficult. When I get a menu that says vegan hot dogs, 1 cup or bulgar, half a cup of parsnips and half a cup of edamame – I don’t know what to do. These foods don’t go together. Who can eat a cup of bulgar – it needs sauce of some kind and then with the veg I wouldn’t want the hot dog. The substitutions also list things I don’t eat and haven’t ticked. I am quite disappointed with this and also you didn’t say in the adverts that access to nutritionist would cost more money. Can one e-mail them instead of chatting? |
| | Unfortunatley yes I am over 18, I turn 40 in 3 1/2 months OMG |
| | Hi, Lisa. Assuming you are over 18 years of age, your recommended weight is around 45-50 kg, depending build and muscle mass. |
| | Raw cheese is made from milk that has not been pasteurized or homogenized. It is available through special sources, and you can find yours here http://www.realmilk.com/where.htm. |
| | Hi What should my weight be, I am 5 foot, at the moment 62kgs, i have started walking 4 days a week 30mins |
 | can anyone tell me what raw cheese is please |
 | Yes agree with a lot of the comments on this post I am finding menu combinations very weird and I am substituting most of the menu for healthy options. Think that the menu planner is a waste of time !!! I have become more aware of what I am eating and have lost 3 lbs in 3 days but as to if it is down to menu plan not sure? Also finding the site very complicated the find options on apps |
| | Try limiting your food choices in the Menu Planner to the minimum, and don’t choose recipes, or choose only those with “classic” or “homemade” in the name. The menus printed out will be much simpler. |
 | This is just too complicated, I don’t have time in my life to be constantly thinking about FOOD, I want to forget about food, and planning menu’s |
