Hi. I’m a new comer and I’m a little bit confused. The video I watched about the 5 foods to stay away from was saying to avoid low fat and fat free products. Yet on here I see fat free stuff on the menus. Can someone give me a little advice please? Thanks
Hi, Angie. Those items are offered in early menus and in the Menu PUlanner lists to enable people to gradually upgrade habits without throwing out food. Most folks here have a stash of low-fat/non-fat items when starting.
Hi i have joined to give it a try. I do hope it works. The video was very informative but long but got my attention. Do we get books as shown in video or just downloads?
HI,
I am new and have a couple questions.
i see the serving size is four and I can’t change it.
is the serving size on menu 1?
Also how do we use the recipes when the meal plans have foods listed that are not in the recipe?Hi, Connie. If you are referring to a recipe, yes, the serving size on the menu is for one. If you want to reduce the amount you prepare, you can follow this guide here: http://www.trimdownclub.com/reducing-the-size-of-recipes.
To use recipes that are not in your menu or represented by specific foods in your menu, you can refer to the exchanges in your meal plan (visible by clicking on “Exchange mode” in the toolbar above your menu) and compare them to the exchanges for a serving of the recipe you want to use (visible at the bottom of the recipe, just before the “Comments” section). It doesn’t have to be a perfect match.Hi, I am a newbie. Joined just this morning.
In the video it mentioned some free books, however at no point did it ask for my address.. Confused. Do we get the books or are they just for downloading?
I am looking forward to my new regime. Fingers crossed for me people. And to all those other newbies out there…Quick question as I get used to changing how I eat. Can the order of the snacks be switched? Say the mid morning to the late after noon etc. or is the order important?
One more thing. I have never been able to get the tracker to work. It just keeps saying “loading”. Anyone else having this problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance for your help
Hi, Bobbiewilli. I have forwarded your tracker query to the tech support team, and someone will get back to you shortly.
With regard to switching items – absolutely!
Hi, I am also a newbie and need to get off the sweetners, but I can’t stand bitter coffee. What is agave syrup and is it a healthy alternative to sugar and sweetner?
Hi, Catherine. Agave is a sugary syrup distilled from cactus. We don’t recommend it, as it is hard on your liver, which can work against your efforts here.
If you use small amounts of sweeteners, you can try pure maple syrup (which does have some carbohydrates, so watch the amounts) or a blend of Stevia extract + erythritol, which is the least bitter carbohydrate-free alternative of the natural options.Okay, just a follow up in case anyone else is having the problem with the tracker. I was able to access it on IE but not on Chrome.
Is there a way to change the weight. While I was messing with it on Chrome, I put in the wrong weight to start. I can’t figure out how to adjust this.
Hello, i’m new here!
The reason I have joined this programme is because I suffer from migraines and one of the triggers is when I’m feeling hungry and don’t eat on time or when I haven’t had enough food or sleep. I tend to eat 2 slices of toast every morning with two scrambled eggs. I have tried cereal before for breakfast but the lack of food would trigger a migraine. I have a feeling I may have a wheat sensitivity but am too worried to try another food for breakfast as I can’t afford to have a migraine at work.
Can you make any suggestions as to what I could eat to start my day off right?
Thanks,
Rupi
