Here’s what we do next

Give BestBody a problem.

01

Set one honest weekly number

Include breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks, then keep a small buffer for substitutions or a changed plan.

02

Choose a repeatable meal pattern

Plan a few flexible breakfasts and lunches, then choose dinners that share ingredients without making every day identical.

03

Build the list from what is already there

Check the cupboard, fridge and freezer first. BestBody can turn the remaining meals into one consolidated list.

04

Use the Eatwell Guide as direction, not a pass-or-fail test

Aim for balance across the day or week, with fruit and vegetables, starchy carbohydrates, protein foods and dairy or alternatives.
