INTAKE is well-defined in EVERY dietary program. 

 In our local hospital, the most criticized food additive is sugar.

 Sugar, like alcohol falls into the Carbohydrate group and both should be minimized. However, common sense would include not only reducing sugars, but also reduction of “bad” fats, and a reduction in portions as well. In fact, the hospital system, lists three initial steps for affective weight loss: reduction of sugar, reduction of meal portion size, and the third is exercise. 

The following is our general (don't obsess about every portion, morsel, and activity or you will stop recording - we wish to have you get a general idea of "ins and outs" of your daily routine). Later, habits of salads instead of sugars will become routine.            

PERSONAL MEAL PLAN    One size doesn't fit all.  MyPyramid Plan from the USDA offers meals with the foods and amounts that are right for your height, weight. etc.. It's GREAT information, including tips about reading food labels and selections among the five food groups. On each food group page, you can also learn about portions and which items are the most healthy.

We just want you to get accustomed to five meals and fewer calories. After a week or two, substitute your favorite dishes, as long as about 2000 calories are maintained. See below about saving "a fortune" in meal replacements for two of the five meals. After studying replacements and costs we have given you a link to getting ProCal 100 at only about $1 per meal!!!
