Portion Control Chat



comments

We did try this diet and while successful to a point for one of us, my partner did not like some of the recipes. How do I switch out the recipes?

I have to eat a Gluten and Diary Free diet, what food swaps/portions would you recommend for the wheat and diary products on this meal plan?

I would also like to see a vegan version. Some of the dinners seem easily adjustable, but some of the snacks for example really do need alternatives (ex:greek yogurt topped with walnuts etc,) My husband and I are trying it this week. I'll report back later.

I am only one person and the leftovers seem daunting. Do these items freez well?

I did not receive all 7 e-mails! After day three they were dropped - not even in my spam!

I also was not able to print out the full 7 day meal plan due to the VT subscription ad. I also would like to see a vegan meal plan. In addition, from Day 3 until today I did NOT recevie anything from VTs. Was there a problem, a glitch?

I really enjoyed the challenge but found that the recipes made tons of leftovers with no place in the rest of the menus so rather than having a bulging refrigerator I ate leftovers instead of new dinners at the end of the week. I plan on making the remaining dinners this week as I continue the meal plan. I lost 4 lbs last week and the menus really helped me see where the errors are in my normal diet. I hope you will continue the menus!

Congratulations to all who completed the challenge and to those that lost weight. I hope you enjoy the recipes again and again.

Thanks Tami and VT! I stuck with the plan as best as I could, but I did make a few adjustment for food preferences and I had wine most nights. I learned that I clearly eat too much, yet I never felt starved on this diet. Planning out what I was going to eat for the entire day helped so much. In the end I lost 3 pounds which I'm very happy about. February 4th is my 50th birthday and I hope to lose at least another three. Thanks again for the great challenge.

Thanks for getting back to me. Hopefully everything will be running smoothly soon

Kim: Unfortunately, we're having technical difficulties with our e-mail system, and some people have not been getting their newsletters. But you can still look at the meal plan, shopping list, blog posts, etc. right here (check the tabs at the top of this page).

Is there a problem with your web site? The last time I received any info from you was this past Tuesday

Kim rutherford - 2012-01-20 21:49:18

When is the next 7-day challenge coming???

I cannot view the entire 7 day plan because a VT subscription ad covers up days, say 4 on. And there is no place to "X" out of the advertisment. Help, I want to join the plan! thanks
