Phase 1 weekly planner template
 

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 :)

Yes, I can't print it out?

Hmmm...did you try saving it to your computer first? I double checked and it isn't protected at all so you should be able to download and print.

i was able to download and print :)
woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

I cant get it can you email it to me [email protected]
Thank you

Awesome - thanks for sharing

Good idea!!! I didn't even think of Google Docs. Will work on that tonight while I'm at work!!

OK, this is neat. Only thing is, the dinner amounts of protein are wrong if I am not mistaken? Your coach gave you a sheet that says "7 ozs fish, or 5 ozs of lean meat"...

Thought the most updated protein amount was 8 ozs? Correct me if I am wrong since I am NOT with a coach, just learning here and using alternative products.

I was going to ask the same qusetion, the Phase 1 sheet that I have is 8oz meat/fish. Is my sheet not the most up to date one available?

That's easy to update, my coach may have been using the same template from before the update. I'll let her know too! I am going to create this in a google docs spreadsheet too - I find it's easier to work with than a word document. Will post the link here when it's all done!

This is the Ideal Protein Journal in spreadsheet style. Everyone that is going to an Ideal Protein clinic should be using a journal and having to bring it to weigh-ins. Thanks for sharing the excel version, it makes it easier for people on the go.

great thank you I was able to download it

Is there some rule that the restricted needs to be at lunch? The spreadsheet seems to imply that.

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!

If you have the Excel / spreadseet template could you e-mail it to me at [email protected] THANKS!!

I made my self a spreadsheet a few weeks ago and i also include calories , carbs etc for each planned meal.

Thank you thank you! Just what I was looking for.
