    Why isn’t there calorie information for recipes? I like to track my calories and fat content. It’s frustrating to have to break each recipe down to calories per serving, especially since many recipes are for 4, 6, or 8 servings.

    Hi, Marie. We don’t work with calories, because we would rather people focus on meeting nutritional needs and getting used to portion sizes and what goes into foods. Calories can make things more difficult because you’re focusing on a small part of the picture. I suggest you take a look at the exchanges (click on “View Menu Exchanges to the right of the menu) and compare to this list of exchanges (http://www.trimdownclub.com/exchanges-lists).

    Hi, Marie! I am not a paid TDC worker; just a member of almost a year now. Many people who have dieted for a long while have wondered the same thing. That’s what is so refreshing about TDC! It is a totally new take on losing weight, and it works! I have lost 23.5 lbs and have only a few more to reach my goal and have done it by following the TDC menu and guidelines faithfully. Just hang in there, and learn a new way of looking at food. 🙂 You’ll love the new freedom it will give you! Hey, while you are at it, why don’t you check out the group “Successful Beginnings and Support”? I’d love to invite you to join it and chat with us! Ask any questions you like. We have members from various parts of the world, so more than likely, there is almost always someone there who can answer your questions, or just chat a bit. Give it a try! And, keep up the good work! You’ve made a great choice for a new start! 🙂
