How to use it
Write dinners first, then lunches, then the rest. As you plan, list what you need to buy at the bottom. Planning the week before you shop makes it easier to use what is already at home.
A tip
Plan a few meals you can repeat and leave gaps for leftovers or eating out. It is a planning aid, not a diet, and it gives no advice about what you should eat.
Questions
Is this a diet plan?
No. It is a blank planner. It gives no advice about what to eat.
How do I find my calories?
