My challenge days will be Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.. Heads up ladies and Gents if we have any this soup really taste good and is filling I was surprised when I first made it last week, and came out of it with a 3 pound lost and I replaced Lunch and Snack at work with it. Also if you have allergies you can exclude those from the recipe or replace for instance I added in Red Cabbage because it is a Fat Blocker.

I know its a bit long winded but you can put in each item and amount of each item and it will add up the calorie intake for u!! so on FOOD start from top the meat amount and then it will tell u each calorie amount and then it will say how many calories you have left. Take the amount u have left away from your calorie intake and then u will get know how much it is. From then on in you can just add the meal as a set item and calorie intake. Hope that makes sense!!
