    Hi, rgs. You can discern the ratio by looking clicking on “Exchange view” in the toolbar above your menu. The exact ratio isn’t all that important – we emphasize more just making sure you get minimum servings of food groups and combine proteins with carbohydrates. However, if you’re interested, the ratio is about 1 gram each of protein and fat for each 3 grams of carbohydrates.

    With regard to the fruit and dairy shake, we have quite a few of those recipes here, such as http://www.trimdownclub.com/recipe/morning-meal-sub-smoothie/.

    Yes, you can use canned fish, but do try to avoid types preserved in oil, if you can.

    I am new to this program and I am reading through my menu staring Monday. Where is the recipe for the shake with fruit and dairy? Also the menu looks great but I am cooking for one person-I have lobster and crab and clams on my menus – do I get fresh ? Or can I use canned? I want to make sure I have my pantry and refrigerator ready for Monday.
