3. Their prepared foods are made with simple, healthful ingredients, allowing us to create fast, nutritious, tasty & budget-friendly meals.
4. It makes shopping faster & easier for you! Since we're all shopping at the same store, we're able to select specific products for your shopping list. You'll find exactly what you need without having to guess.

Our meal plans are designed to serve one person. We plan all your meals & snacks (breakfast, am snack, lunch, pm snack, dinner) to ensure you get the nutrients you need, meet the U.S. Dietary Guidelines, and stay within a calorie range that supports women’s healthy, sustainable weight loss.

If you prepare dinner or other meals for your partner or family, you can easily change the number of servings in the Planner, and your Shopping List will update automatically.

Absolutely! That’s why we build flexibility into our Meal Plans. You can move meals around or delete recipes and your Shopping List will update automatically.
