Generator tour
This overview of the generator's features will help you quickly build your ideal diet plan.
Calorie calculator
Find the calorie calculator by clicking "Not sure?" This helps you estimate your calorie and macronutrient needs based on your weight goals.
Keep in mind that this is just an estimation, and everyone is different. Follow the recommendation for a few weeks, and then modify your intake based on your progress. Not losing weight? Eat a bit less. Not gaining? Eat more.
Meal refresh
You can regenerate an individual meal with this refresh button.
Meal locks
Or you can lock a meal. The next time you click "Generate!" the meal won't be changed.
Food options
Each food has a lock and refresh button too. You can also change the amounts or click and drag it to another meal. Hover over the food to see all the options.
Recipes
Hovering over a recipe will show you a link to the recipe page. There, you can personalize the recipe with your own ingredients and directions.
Note If you choose "grams" as the recipe's units via the selector, it is measured by the weight of the uncooked ingredients. Ingredients like rice and pasta alter the final cooked weight significantly.
Meal options
There are a ton of things to customize in the options menu. You can change the foods you want, your nutrition targets, and even your maximum food budget.
Add a dish
Add a specific food using the food bank. You can search existing dishes or make your own, and then drag them into your meal plan. As a subscriber, you can even have the generator use your custom recipes (otherwise, you need to add them manually).
This is especially useful if you don't follow the plan exactly. Add what you did eat manually, lock it, and use the refresh buttons to "autocomplete" your diet
Diet stats
The generator will try to meet all of your goals, but sometimes it may violate one limit (like budget) in favor of meeting another (like minimum protein). Double check the results before following any diet.
