How to Use This Meal Planner

The remainder of the Meal Planner is divided into monthly sections. Each section will contain the following:

 Hearty Crock-Pot “Soup of the Month”

 An original recipe

 A short discussion/lesson with practical suggestions for increasing nutritional awareness and modifying eating behaviors

 A supply of tear-out pages with a meal plan on one side and a shopping list guide on the back

Directions:

1 Follow the samples on pages 9 and 10.

2 Develop a meal plan for dinner each day.

3 Write your plan down. This act formalizes your commitment.

4 Post your plan in a conspicuous spot where everyone will see it. The refrigerator door is a great spot.

5 Make your plan simple. Your chances of sticking with a plan decrease as it becomes more complex. This is why the recommendation is to address only the major meal where overeating is a problem: dinner. Breakfast and lunch routines are usually well established, and overeating is not a problem, because there is not time for it.

Note: Lunch and breakfast are very important but do not need to be written down on the plan.
