    Once you've gone through the onboarding process for meal planner, you can get started with creating your first plan via the plan tab.

    Just hit create meal plan to begin. First, choose your start and end date for the plan. If you're new to meal planning, we recommend starting small at first and working up to a longer plan up to the max of two weeks.

    Next, review the meals you'd like to include in your plan. Depending on the setting you choose during onboarding, some of these meals may be repeated across days with leftovers. This is a great way to save time and money.

    Now let's dive into selecting your recipes. Based on your preferences, we'll automatically suggest some delicious options, but don't worry, you're in control. See that swap button? It's your ticket to customization. Tap it to make a quick change, or see more recipes to explore our entire recipe catalog with over 1500 dishes to choose from. You'll also have the option to pick paired carbs, veggies, and even snacks. Before you know it, you'll have a fully customized meal plan that's uniquely you.

    When your meal plan is complete, you can share it with your household and start grocery planning. Review your pantry staples, create your grocery list, and set a handy grocery reminder. With MyFitnessPal, you're not just planning meals, you're mastering your menu, one click at a time.

    Is there any chance of getting this on the Web version versus app? I really prefer my laptop for meal planning.
