This is a program of choice, you can eat any of the products anytime of the day. I recommend eating the restricted for breakfast (which is what I do) or lunch just because it has more calories, keeps me fuller and has most of the day to burn off. This of course is only my opinion

Nope, it's just a guideline. If you notice some of the breakfasts are also in red - it's just to make sure you don't accidentally plan 2 restricteds in one day. Some days I like to have a bar for breakfast, so I plan an unrestricted lunch. Other days I have a shake for breakfast so that I can have one of the restricted snacks with lunch.

Thanks, this will be useful as I learn the program :-)

I found that I am forever forgetting my log sheet, so I added my fitness planner to my iphone, which is always with me. I log in there, then transfer when I go to weigh in. Much better for me personally :O)

I was looking at that program! I actually use this template to plan my entire week ahead of time. I have a ziplog baggie for each day of the week, and I plan out all my packets and meals on the template. I put the packets in the baggie for that day and I'm good to go all week! It helps me stay organized!

I think lack of organization is my problem - lol. I don't plan ahead, then, oops! I'm starving!! I go back to work in another week, so I really do need to plan ahead for sure, or I may fall back into my old habit! I find that getting to the bathroom, snack time, lunch time ... all of that is much harder when I am teaching (my body just doesn't get that whole school bell system :O)

I love my fitness planner because it has IP foods already there. Sometimes adding veggies can be a bit confusing as I don't fix them the way they are listed; I just take what is closest so I have the day recorded.

I will check out your planner; maybe it will help me organize too.

Thanks for sharing!

Hey all,
I wanted to share this tool that my coach had given me - it's a weekly menu planner for phase 1.It lays out meals, veggies and vitamins every day for a week! I've been using it and setting up my packets ahead of time and it's been helpful. Feel free to download and use it!

The lines that are RED indicate a restricted packet, that way you don't have to worry about having too many in one day!

I have to be on the forum a little longer before you can send me messages, but I also have this in an excel spreadsheet. Once I can receive messages, I'm happy to email that to you if you PM me your email! (Can't upload excel files here). I'm more of a spreadsheet girl than a word document girl :)
