Let’s look at an example for MyPlan:
-á
The photo above shows-áa Take Shape for Life clients-áMedifast meal plan for a typical day. Of course there are hundreds of combination possibilities to keep-áyour meals varied. The plan shown is what-áshe intended to eat today.-áShe can change it at the time-áshe eats a meal or can change it at any time.-á You’ll notice that the-áSupport-In-Motion software totals the calories for her.-áShe can also change it to sort by carbs, protein, fat, etc. so-áshe knows at a glance what amount of each-áshe will be consuming. In this case,-áshe plans to eat 861.5 calories and 91.2 carbohydrates. Depending on-áher mood later in the day,-áshe might change the evening meal from vanilla pudding (16 carbs) to a vanilla shake (10 carbs). That will save-áher 6 carbs and 10 calories. Later-áin the-áafternoon-áshe might-ádecide to eat the pudding for my evening meal, then I’ll probably increase my water consumption to 10 glasses for the day to help flush the extra carbs/calories out faster or do a little extra work around the house.The-áSupport-In-Motion software is accessible through my online account and there is nothing to install on my computer. It is fast to load, calculate even on-áa dialup Internet access account, and it doesn’t get blocked by firewall software. It’s intuitive to use and-ámany use it every day to determine where-áthey can add and where I can cut calories.
This client-ágenerally try’s to keep-áher calories between 800-950 per day and-áher carbs between 80-90 if at all possible. In seven weeks (as of today)-áshe has lost 26 pounds on the Medifast Diet with Take Shape for Life, and is due mostly because-áshe keeps a close watch on my calories, carbs, exercise and water consumption. It’s far easier to keep track of calories and carbs through the-áSupport-In-Motion software than any other dieting software-áshe has-áused in the past.-áShe highly recommends it!
