 Ossie-Sharon 5 years ago | Hi, SandySandy. Yes, you can eat a little less. To have the system calculate new menus for you, change the weight in your profile to 148 lbs, then generate a new menu by clicking on the plus sign button in your menu area.
To download the 14-day plan, which provides less food as well, enter the “My Downloads” area (link at the upper right of each site page), then enter the first group of downloads available to you – scroll down, and you will see the plan for downloading. |
 Srb22 5 years ago | I am new, and wondering if I can combine this program with my intermittent fasting approach. I fast 16 hours and my food window is 8. Do I need to eat all of these meals or can I eat 2 as I’m currently doing.
Thanks.. |
 SandySandy 5 years ago | Where can i find the 14-day plan? it’s not on my toolbar anywhere |
| SandySandy 5 years ago | feel like there is too much food. I’m not hungry with a lower amount for each of the 6 meals – and i feel sick when eating too much. can i eat less? |

| Ossie-Sharon 5 years ago | Hi, Ladybeu. Again, to use other recipes, just compare the exchanges at the end of the recipe to those allotted to you, which you can see by clicking on the “Exchange View” button above your menu. |
 ladybeu 5 years ago | LADYBEU HERE AGAIN – ACTUALLY THE RECIPE I WOULD LIKE TO USE ISN’T ONE OF MY OWN – IT’S ONE THAT IS SUGGESTED BY TRIM DOWN CLUB – WHEN I CLICKED ON THE RECIPE FOR HOMEMADE HAMBURGER (AS LISTED IN MY MEAL PLAN), I SAW ANOTHER RECIPE OFF TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THAT RECIPE WHICH SAID “YOU MAY LIKE THIS ONE BETTER” – THAT’S THE RECIPE I’D LIKE TO INCORPORATE INTO MY MENU PLAN INSTEAD OF THE HAMBURGER ONE. IS THERE A WAY TO INSERT THAT ALTERNATE MEAL INTO MY MENU PLAN INSTEAD OF USING THE ONE THAT IS LISTED? THANKS |
| Ossie-Sharon 5 years ago | Hi, ladybeu. I’m happy to answer any questions you have!
1. To use other recipes, just compare the exchanges at the end of the recipe to those allotted to you, which you can see by clicking on the “Exchange View” button above your menu.
2. Are you referring to making your own recipe? If so, just click on the edit tool to the upper right of the meal, then select the ingredients from the master list. You will be guided by your meal pattern.
3. Coffee itself is “free,” meaning unlimited. What you add to it is what makes the difference – sweetener, whitener, etc. We suggest a natural, no-carbohydrate option like Stevia, erythritol, and/or monk fruit (lo han guo); for a whitener, we recommend a natural option, just as a bit of milk or light cream. |

| ladybeu 5 years ago | HOW DO I SWITCH A MENU TO INCLUDE A DIFFERENT RECIPE THAT I FOUND – FOR EXAMPLE, MY MENU SHOWS A HOMEMADE HAMBURGER BUT I’D RATHER HAVE A RECIPE I FOUND CALLED TUNA CAKES – HOW TO ADD TUNA CAKES TO MY MENU IN PLACE OF THE HAMBURGER? |
