Menu questions
 | The only SWG bread i have found is ezekiel and it is in the freezer. Do you know that brand and is it ok? Should i expect tp find all SWG bread products in the freezer? |
 | Hi, k8eric. Yes, this program is low in carbohydrates, about 40-45% of energy, compared to 50-65% in regular diets. Beyond that, the major principles applied here are based on diabetic care. |
 | Is this diet a low carb diet? I have the low sugar but is it also low carb? I am diabetic and need to be on a low sugar/low carb diet? |
| | Hi, Mflowther66. SWG stands for “sprouted whole grain” (you can read more about it here https://www.trimdownclub.com/what-is-swg-bread/). In other countries, it is often just called sprouted wheat (i.e., in the UK) or sprouted (whatever grain). |
| | Hi, Mflowther66. Note that you only need to make the overall selections at the beginning, and then just make minor adjustments here and there going forward. In other words, it will not be tedious for very long. |
 | Is it possible just to select all the foods you want to choose for all meals on one tab rather than have to repeat everything for every tab? This is very tedious, |
| | Help what is SWG? I noticed on the menu many items have the prefix SWG, is this a brand in the USA? Or does it mean something else. Thanks |
| | Hi, boodlemom. We absolutely recommend just finishing the items in your pantry and gradually upgrading – no need to waste. For that reason, the Menu Planner includes some common and more generic fodos, so you can still build a menu, and take advantage of the other features it offers – portions sizes, food combinations, and timing. |
| | I just joined and would like to use things i already have in my pantry. When following a menu is there a way to substitute my own items and record that to see how it fits into or changes the numbers? I am new this week and trying to navigate thru all this material. I am 48 and a new empty nester, who has been fighting my weight for 20 years. |
