I've just downloaded this meal plan - recipes for low carb breakfasts, lunches and dinners, for 30 days. These meals average out at only 600 calories per day. I don't know about the rest of you but I'd have to have at least three helpings of each meal per day; either that or starve to death. It seems unlikely that whoever devised this plan thinks we can make up the rest of the calories we need from snacks given that these meals only provide one third of what most people need meaning the snacks would have to provide a whopping two thirds of our intake. I average 2000 calories per day and I am, and always have been, bordering on being under weight. I wish someone would come up with a sensible plan that provided what people actually need instead of these airy fairy plans that nobody could possibly live on, even if they were trying to lose weight, for any length of time. Phew. I feel better for that rant!
