Hi JF!

Welcome! You can pick one LINE for each meal. So if Meal 1 (like breakfast, for example) is 1 egg and 80g veg, you can choose that for breakfast. But then you can't have anything under meal 1 again that day. Then meal 2 is like lunch and say you can choose 70g cheese and 110g veg. Then that's your lunch--nothing else from the meal 2 dept that day. Then meal 3 is like dinner, etc. Choose one line for each meal and you get three meals a day. They don't have to be in that order, though, like 1-2-3 doesn't have to equal Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner. So you can have Meal 3 for dinner if you want a bigger breakfast, but then you only have Meals 1 and 2 left to choose from for the day. Basically, you're getting a protein and a vegetable three meals a day. Except yogurt where you just get your yogurt but you can mix it with one of your fruit allotments for the day. I have fruit & crackers as snacks between meals, saving one fruit for dessert after dinner. Good luck!!
