MemberH, I joined the group recently as need to lose huge amounts of weight, but I am a busy mum of two and a director of a company, so as you can imagine time is somewhat scarce. I need help working out the best way to go as I don’t eat all day and then I’m hungry at dinnertime. I have medical problems too which adds to everything. Please help before I give up and stay as I am (which is not good) đ

MemberHi, Marie, and welcome. Your situation is actually quite common! Part of the design of our program is to help you get used to eating throughout the day so that you are not so hungry in the evening, when you are least active.
I recommend you try the personal version of the Menu Planner application (the right-most option here: http://www.trimdownclub.com/menu-planner) so that you can select the specific foods that work for you and your family.
Below are some ideas for foods that you can take with you for your day at work. You can prepare them the evening before while you are making dinner. If this is not doable, I can help you put together a 3-meal/day plan instead of 6/day, which may make the change easier – just let me know.
