The electronic (i.e. online) version of meal plans is more
customizable than a PDF document or a print brochure. First, through
the setting of preferences, I'll get a "regular" or "Balanced" meal
plan or a higher protein meal plan or a higher carbohydrate meal plan
or a vegetarian meal plan. Second, the meal plans are programmed to my
daily points target, not a pre-set 20 points. Third, I can swap any of
the meals of a particular time of day with a meal from that same time
period on another day. For example, I can swap Thursday's breakfast
with Friday's, or repeat the same breakfast every day. Finally, I can
have the meal plan added to my journal, create a grocery list, and
print a copy of my week's personalized meal plan. Personally, I like
this much better than having a static document.

and then every once in a while in the WI day message if you're showing
a gain.

I did a google search and found the references to the Pick Me Up Guide on
the following pages:

It sounds like it's something rather new, so perhaps they will introduce it
at your meetings soon.

Well, this one is aimed at just breaking a plateau with a fixed point
value. I would guess on the site, you could plug in 20 points and
come up with an entire and very flexible plan. Clearly, this is more
rigid but it suggests mixing lunch or dinner or days depending on the
user's needs or moods.

Well, tonight's is fresh tuna grilled foreman style.

After I get home from the movie, I will post the shrimp recipe if I
don't forget.

Yup - that's it - the pick me up guide. It is offered along with the
pie charts and the protein/carbs sheets that are also mentioned.

Maybe they do not offer it electronically yet.

Funny, they do not have it available online YET??

It is a 20 point set of menues for a week with variations for some of
the meals. Legal size and can be folded in eights with the seven days
and a "cover sheet."

Actually, a friend is interested in it which is why I've been seeking
it out. And electronic would be convenient.

This is exactly how the meal plans work on the Canadian site too. I've not
used them yet and probably won't. Don't think I'd stick to a pre-configured
meal plan.

The shrimp recipe sounds great. DH HATES seafood that have any kind of
shell, so it's just Nicholas and I that eat it. It's funny because Nicholas
and I will both eat shrimp, prawns, oysters, clams, crab, scallops,
mussells, etc. Most times DH has a hard time just sitting at the same table
as us when we eat seafood that is anything other than fish. Oh well, he
doesn't know what he's missing!!

And I remembered and posted the recipe a bit ago. I may do it
tomorrow if I can remember a lime.
