I am new to Whole30 and signed up for RealPlans. That does have an app if you subscribe, and the app works really well for meal planning, creating a shopping list and setting up your week in advance. 

Just wondering how the RealPlans is working for you. I think I am going to do a yearly subscription due to the cost being cheaper for a year. I really like the idea of it planning out when you do what timeline for the week. Let me know what you think. I am on day 16 and planning on doing this for at least the 30 days.

Hi,

Sorry ... got focused on chopping, prepping, cooking and cleaning and didn't come back to this forum for a while.

I would say Realplans was very helpful for me. I work (a lot) and have gotten into the bad habit of not really planning meals to get through the week. By forcing myself to sit down one day a week and plan a few fancy meals as well as breakfasts and lunches, I have become much more efficient.

I am thinking of switching to the yearly so I keep up the good work. Today was my weigh in day and I lost 7.7 pounds in a month, and I was hoping for 5 if I was lucky. I'm not really a heavy person, but this year I gained some weight probably because I was working too much, so I just wanted to shake that off.

A few tips I learned:

1) only attempt to do 2-3 cooks from scratch meals/week, if you are only a couple like my husband and I. (kids all grown up!)

2) plug in a few of your go-to breakfasts and lunch so the food items go into your shopping list (eggs, organic sausage, veggie or fruit is a common breakfast for me, and salad with protein is an easy lunch).

3) Try something new every week. I learned how to make spaghetti squash, how to make slow cooked shredded pork, and a few other things that will be staples now that I have the confidence.

4) I also learned that I was not eating enough food or enough fat! Yay, all those years of bad nutrition advice I can forget. I love eating now.
