Hi, Jab1957, and congratulations! We wish you continued success and good health.
With regard to the bar, it really depends on the ingredients. We favor whole food types, with minimal added sugar and nothing artificial. Special K Bars don’t really fit that description, but if you like cereal bars, try checking out the selection at a health-oriented store like Whole Foods Market or Trader Joe’s – that’s usually a safer bet.I have found other TDC recipes not listed in the menu planner but through the links down the left side when you click into a listed recipe ie Creamy Sweet Potato Soup. How can I plug these found recipes into the menu planner? (this is probably a tech issue)
Nearing the end of week 4 and am down about 8 lbs. I found the meal combinations a little strange at first, but now I love them. I really had no health problems other than extra weight, but I generally feel healthier. Very happy with the program so far!
I’m afraid I tripped and fell last week. Probably because it was Father’s Day and my son wanted to treat me. How could I turn him down? Over the weekend I gained about 4lbs. Yikes! But I’m not discouraged. I know there will be some fluctuation in my journey and I also know that I have to be patient with myself especially if I fail. The weight loss just made me even more determined. I’ll lose it again and then some…. eventially. Like you say, it’s not a diet that you can fail. It’s a life journey to better health and the bonus is a slim and trim body. Keeping on trucking.
Hi, Grammamusic. Just find something similar and choose that as a placesaver for your menu, then make the swap when it comes time to prep the meal. If you would like help with that, you are welcome to list the recipes you want here, and I will get back to you.
I have been on the plan for 1 week and have lost 6lbs. Long may it continue! Can I just ask why the recipes of for such a lot of people. I am cooking for two and am freezing the leftovers in portions which is fine. It would be easier if the recipes were for multiple of two, rather than three. Just a small thing I know.

Hi, Di.wakefield, and congratulations! We also wish you continued success, and especially good health. The large size of the older recipes occurred in response to our client base from a few years ago, which was then made up primarily of families. Newer recipes are for smaller amounts, with the exception of holiday recipes. Many of those older recipes have a reduction function in the Comments section – click on “Fewer Servings” to adjust the ingredients list. You can also use this as a guide: http://www.trimdownclub.com/reducing-the-size-of-recipes/.
Hi I have a question about the cereal listed. It doesnt come on my menu with a milk produce listed. Is that assumed ir is that to be eaten dry?
Where can I get monk fruit powder or stevia. I can buy stevia artificial sweeteners for drinks from tesco but they are not right are they.I also find it difficult to find omega 3 eggs most supermarkets only seem to stock free range.
Started this plan two weeks ago. Have been following item by item and have also been more active. I have GAINED 4 pounds and so has my wife. Had this happened to anyone else before? We’ve been on diet after diet and thought this would be a great change, so what, if anything, are we doing wrong? I’m extremely disappointed.
ben on the plan for a month and have lost 12 pounds well on my way to the weight my doctor wants me at in October when I go back. May be well below that weight if the weight keeps coming off.
