Meal 1 Plans

Each Meal Plan consists of a week's worth of meals. If there is a food item that you do not like and would like to replace it with another food, you can do so by clicking on the "Food Substitutions" at the top of the Meal Plan page. These Food Substitutions will give you several other options from which to choose. Also, a printable Shopping List is available for your convenience (simply click on "Shopping List" at the top of the Meal Plan page).

Please note that each meal plan is based on a weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week. A sensible approach to dieting with slow, consistent weight loss is more likely to be maintained for life.

Menus will not go below 1400 calories per day, as this is the minimum amount necessary to meet your daily nutrient requirements. If the calorie level determined for you is below 1400 calories, you may want to consider increasing your exercise. However, if you are unable to do that, you will still lose weight, it will just be at a slower pace (approximately ½ pound per week).

Please note that the menus do not exceed 2400 calories per day. If your weight management plan exceeds 2400 calories, you can use the Enhanced Calorie Calculator to add snacks to your meal plan to increase your calories.

Simply choose the Meal Plan below that fits your lifestyle best -- Convenience-Based (if you don't do a lot of cooking or are always "on-the-go," these plans incorporate frozen and quick-prep meals), Recipe-Based (if you enjoy cooking and have the time to create some delicious and healthy dishes!), or Combination (the best of both worlds!). All Meal Plans have been carefully balanced for proper nutrition, customized to your calorie level.

We hope you enjoy your meal plans.
