Hi all, I'm new to all this food planning and would really appreciate any help putting together a weekly meal planner to ensure I am getting all the various food groups in the right proportions throughout the week, I am planning on 1200 calories per day but I'm feeling a bit out of my depth right now. Thank you x

    Hi Sally,

    you may find it difficult to get that sort of help on here. Nutritionists get paid an awful lot of money for that kind of advice!

    I only started a couple of weeks ago and I have to say that the tools within My Fitness Pal have been great for me. Looking at the summary of what you have eaten compared to what you should eat in calories, fat, sugars, salt, etc. has given me a great steer towards a better way of eating. I'm on 1500 cals per day and have managed to not only keep to my cal intake but I've noticed I eat too many sugars and have been able to make smarter choices because of that.

    Good Luck!

    If you have a look at bbcgoodfood.com there are loads of recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner, all the recipes have calorie content together with a breakdown of nutritional values. I find it really helpful and the recipes are generally very good ( and easy).

    Wishing you lots of luck!
