The Real World Diet

Free Diet Planner for The Real World

The Real World Diet is just that - a 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).

Other websites charge you as much as $29.95 per month for this service, but The Real World Diet is completely free. (We don't even ask for your credit card information.)

Coumadin (warfarin) Diet Information

The easy, healthy recipes on the Dr. Gourmet website are individually labeled for their appropriateness for Coumadin (warfarin) users. All of the recipes on this page are considered safe for Coumadin (warfarin) users. They may contain some Vitamin K, but in amounts small enough not to cause problems. Recipes not listed here will be labeled on their individual page as "avoid"; those recipes contain simply too much Vitamin K.

Remember that it is important to consume approximately the same amount of Vitamin K-containing foods each day (see The Right Dose of Vitamin K). Use the information in the individual recipes to help you manage your intake so that your warfarin (Coumadin) is most effective.
