Newbie questions
 | Hi evelyn7, Of course 😉 Best |
 | Hi, lmarrufo. If they are whole food types, then yes – I’m talking about cream, half-and-half, or creamy nut and grain milks (almond, hazelnut, quinoa, etc.). We don’t recommend the usual powdered creamers, as they are full of chemicals that can work against your efforts here. |
 | Can creamers be used at all with coffee? |
 | Hello….I just started yesterday and can’t wait to start the weight loss! However I’m on a fixed budget, so is it okay to use the same menu plan several days in a row? |
| | Hi, Lordhelpme. Just find a food or recipe in the Menu Planner lists that is similar, and select it as a placesaver; then make the swap at meal prep time. |
 | I’ve seen so many Great Recipes I want to try. How do I get them into my weekly menu??? Think I need to spend yet even more time here. Forgive me but I been here most of the day…….. |
| | Hi, nhhicks61. Just ease into it and do your best. You don’t have to be perfect, just a little better than you did before, and it will all add up without making you crazy 🙂 |
 | Hi. I just joined two days ago. There doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day for all of this food. I even tried getting up earlier today, and still have had to skip latest afternoon snack. The snacks are as much food as the meals, at least the first and second ones are. I have to at least go 2 1/2 to 3 hours so I’m not force-feeding myself. Can’t my snacks be cut back to one or two food items, rather than three or four food items? Also, what time at night should I be finishing eating. If I eat all of this, it will end up being anywhere from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. Please help. |
| | Hi, LarryMorgan. Many recipes are already in the Menu Planner lists, so you can select them and they will be fit into your meal pattern. If you are interested in recipes that are not in the Menu Planner, just select something similar in the Menu Planner lists as a placesaver, and then make the swap at meal time. |

 | how do recipes work in exchange for planned menu items? i not sure how to use an exchange? |
| | Hi, Alfola and pixie. You are encouraged to make your own. We have a general recipe (https://www.trimdownclub.com/recipe/zucchini-chips/) that can be used for many different vegetables, including those that are low in vitamin K (such as carrots). |
| | that sounds nasty cant eat a lot of vegies my self on blood thinners |
 | Dehydrated vegetable chips appears on my menu from time to time, the only ones that I have been able to find, have a horrid odor to me and are repulsive to eat. The very short list of substitute’s (three items) does not look very appealing to me either. Can you suggest other items for that item or is it ok to just leave it out. |
