"Caveat that I've been using the app on and off for several months. However, overall this is a very sensible way of eating and exercising. The focus on food groups is very logical. I've lost about ten lbs using this plan. <br/><br/>Main complaints:<br/>Suggests women should default to 1200 cal a day for weight loss/men 1400 - WAY too little. This is literally the line below which you are medically starving. <br/><br/>The meal plan suggestions are gross. The meals in the app are better, but still suffer from a severe fear of fat (it's contradictory that they want you to eat whole foods but also have fat free cheese, yogurt, and cream cheese...). But honestly, salad dressing simply isn't plain vinegar! And when they let you have oil the ratios are all wrong. <br/><br/><br/>I'd suggest to use this book as inspiration, to focus on the fifteen key habits and tracking, and to lean into the food pyramid. Those are powerful...just don't try too many of the bland totally western-focused recipes (would a bit of dal kill them??)"
