[JustForToday]

Many food addicts don't eat the margarine - this is a suggested food plan to help newcomers to get started.

Some food addicts split their breakfast into two smaller, equal meals - 1/2 grain, 1/2 protein, 1/2 fruit &
1/2 dairy. They eat the first half at home before they leave for work and then carry the 2nd half and eat on a break after they get to work. The same thing can be done with lunch by adding a starch. Many food addicts can stretch the time a bit longer between meals.

Some food addicts have their MA before they leave work and then have dinner at a later hour.

Most food addicts find that if they eat the nuts, even the healthy raw ones, the fats set off the cravings.

The suggested food plan is to help you get through the door and to become abstinent. Many food addicts make changes with the help of their sponsors.

Many food addicts need to modify the food plan because of medical problems.

All the best to you in our recovery.
