    Hi, Rohinis. It looks like you found a viable solution. The shopping list generator is the icon on the right side of the toolbar just above your finished menu.

    Hi, nfurth. If you can get a hold of JustLikeSugar or xylitol, these sweeteners do not have a bitter aftertaste or carbs.

    Hi, SGehris. Absolutely. Just be sure you get at least 5 total servings of fruits + vegetables and 3 servings of calcium-rich foods throughout the day.

    I am doing the 8 week plan, just started yesterday and feeling good!! I am not seeing where to go to the food selection, where I get to choose the types of foods I like? I don’t know if I accidentally skipped that part or what…but cannot figure out hoe to go back. One more question, when it says pesto sauce, is this store bought
    …I cannot find a recipe? Thanks for any help!

    I am a bit surprised by the amount of breads in this plan. I am also concerned as I haven’t had potatoes for over 2 years. I see no mozzarella cheese, is this a no-no? I am used to a higher protein and good (lower) carbs diet, but have stopped losing ( at 30lbs), even while working out. (workouts include cardio 5-10 miles on an elliptical level 3, 3 mile walk/hike and 30 minutes of resistance/weights.) Can you use artificial sweeteners?

    was wondering if it was possible on the pre-planned meal plan if you can remove a meal or snack if you did not eat anything for that part of the plan say for instance a pre-planned second snack?

    Ok, first breakfast question. Can you cut the amounts in half and still lose? It was way too much food for both my husband and myself. I am used to just eating eggs for breakfast.

    Thanks for the reply. Got it figured out. Now my menu completely changed for what I shopped for 🙂 is there a way to get that other menu back? One more question. Is there a way to copy a lunch that I ate today into tomorrow? I like to eat up all of something before I make more of it and this would be very helpful! Thanks!,

    Try the menu history (my menus) tool. It is located in Apps 🙂

    I too am finding it difficult to get going. All foods are American and I use good English stuff. I could not find enough that I recognised to turn squares blue. Help!

    I just started today. I’m looking at my menu and it looks awesome, BUT how am I supposed to cook some of the meals? For example: for lunch, eat 5 ounces of salmon. How am I supposed to cook the salmon? Pan fry? Bake? What seasonings? I can’t find recipes that go with my weekly menu. Help please!

    I use stevia – comes in liquid or granules and tastes just like sugar – no after taste either
