When Clients Are Caught Up In The Little Things

For some people when they first begin their meal plan they can get very focused on the tiny details. This can detract from the overall goal - which is ease, and creating healthy food habits.

Letting them know there’s leeway can be very reassuring. 

Swapping out a vegetable or fruit they don’t like for one they do won’t negatively impact their plan. Same goes for herbs and spices. 

People have different tastes and tolerances - particularly for spices. If a recipe lists a fresh herb and you don’t have it, swapping for a dried one you have in the pantry is fine. 

We find that once people settle into the routine of their meal plan they naturally find their groove. They get a sense of the portion sizes, how to use the ‘Swap’ and ‘Favourite’ features, and realise that it’s about the week as a whole - rather than a single meal or ingredient.

The most important thing is that they enjoy their food.

It’s always about the big picture - the goal of changing habits for the better, and for the long term.
