Lose weight the right way - the healthy way! - by following a clinically proven diet plan. And learn how to keep it off - for good!
Just Tell Me What to Eat: The Dr. Gourmet Diet Plan is an easy-to-follow diet for real people who live in the real world. So what does that really mean?
Create a two-week custom meal plan including breakfast, lunch and dinner, for yourself or your entire family - even kids under 14! NO making separate meals.
Shopping lists are automatically generated. Just print and shop for the next two weeks of meals.
Frozen meal options for lunch or dinner (such as Lean Cuisine or Weight Watchers).
Easy, kid-friendly meals with leftovers for lunches or later in the week.
Special diet options include Comfort Food (great for families with kids!), Vegetarian (lacto-ovo), low sodium, lactose intolerant, Coumadin (warfarin) use, GERD / Acid Reflux safe, and gluten allergies (celiac disease). All meal plans are safe for type 2 diabetics because they are based on the Mediterranean Diet, which is known to be the best diet for type 2 diabetics. Combine special needs if needed: low sodium and lactose intolerant? Coumadin and celiac disease? Just select the options and get your delicious meal plan!
Other websites charge you as much as $29.95 per month for this service, but Just Tell Me What to Eat: The Dr. Gourmet Diet Plan is completely free. (We don't even ask for your credit card information.)

Eating Healthier at Fast Food Restaurants: McDonald's
I have created this list of selected items for you to use
when you must eat out. The items listed fall
generally under 400 calories or so, under 15 grams
of fat and under about 600 mg sodium, so if you are going
to be stuck eating at such restaurants, this is a fairly
good guideline. I've also included a printable version so
that you can print it out and take it with you for reference.
