I'm new
 | You can buy a cup measure quite cheaply online. Im fortunate enough to already have one since many years ago an American friend mailed me a cookbook whereby all the recipes were measured in cups lol. I was easier to buy a measure than convert and weigh out 🙂 |
 | Hi Susilewis I have found that part difficult too and have found a conversion chart it is a link in the menu planner page |
 | Hi, Suzilewis, and welcome. What are the portions that appear in your daily menus? Are they in cups, etc.? If so, let us know, and tech support can help. |
 | Hi I am new and British, some of the foods are strange also I cannot seem to find where it says how many grams of each food group I shd eat per day? |
| | I am glad that I am not the only one who thought some of the foods were alien have been out shopping last 2 days and found some of the items on shopping list and you are quite right TerrieS it is better to go slowly at first. |
 | Hi, another UK newbie here….and finding all the food choices are looking a bit alien to me. I will stick at it, obviously, but I do feel that this is aimed primarily at the US market. I shall plod on! |
| | Hi, Im British as well. I find the bigger sainsburys and waitrose supermarkets pretty good for finding foods I need. Im slowly sourcing some of the less familiar by searching online although I confess, if Im struggling I do swap the product out to something I know I can get that is in the same food group. Its too overwhelming to try and get it 100% right when you first start out and I have no problems (as Im new too) in taking my time over this. |
| | Hi, Vikki, and welcome. Holidays can indeed be challenging because the amounts and often the fat and sugar contents of the foods – when in doubt, eat the smallest portions you can, just to enjoy the taste, and remember the event is about the people not the food. |
 | Hi, My name is Vikki and I just downloaded this club yesterday. I am a little concerned because for the 4th. of July, I am meeting family and my conribution for dinner one night is to prepare a large something. Any ideas? |
| | Greetings, Gardenangel (and other new Brits). Many of the foods are unfamiliar to many people, which is part of their advantage – they are less mass-produced, and so have been less manipulated. They were carefully selected for their beneficial effects on metabolism, including support of healthy weight loss and maintenance. A good source of information is Goodness Direct UK (http://www.goodnessdirect.co.uk/cgi-local/frameset/script/home.html) – search the name of the food, then click on the description, and you will see it is just amazing how they explain things. |
 | I’m British as well, also reading thru all the topics, finding the 14 day menu strange; foods there I am unfamiliar with. |
| | Hi yes I am British about to start this diet down loaded it last weekend but still reading through it all |
 | Hello I’ve just downloaded the diet plan. Just getting my head round everything. I was just wondering if there are any British people doing this? |
| | Hi, N40SG. Absolutely! Lemon tea and ginger tea are excellent choices. |
