Hi, dbjorge. Tea and coffee are fine as is – just be wise about what you add to it, avoiding artificial creamers and sweeteners. We recommend Stevia, erythritol, or combinations as sweeteners, and regular dairy or unsweetened plant-based non-dairy milky beverages for whiteners. If you use heavy cream, note that anything above a couple of teaspoons needs to be counted as a fat exchange.

Sorry I meant any fruits.
Thanks

Hi, my name is Carolann. I just signed up not sure how to navigate this site yet.

Hi new to this. Can we make our own menus with our own food??

Hi, Qu33N. You can make the system give you three main meals per day, by taking the following steps:
1. Click on the “Exchange mode” icon in the toolbar above your menu, and take note of the exchanges you are allotted for each snack.
2. After returning to normal mode, click on the circular arrow icon to the right of each major meal header.
3. Once you are in the subapplication that pops up, you can build your major meals from scratch, using the meal+snack exchange numbers to guide you (ignore anything in red telling you that you have exceeded your limit, of course). It is recommended to incorporate the exchanges from the next meal into the present one – i.e., breakfast+snack #1, lunch+snack #2, and dinner+snack #3.
4. Since snacks cannot be completely deleted, to make a cleaner-looking menu put something simple in each of the snack menus such as “Vegetables of Your Choice”

Where do I find the macro % goals?

Hello, starting my second week today! How do I change my meal planner to reflect that it is my second week? Also will the second week give me more food options?
