No Snacks, no sweets, no seconds. Except on Days that start with S. Too simple for you? Simple is why it works. Look here for questions, introductions, support, success stories.
YES YES YES you can eat frozen meals three times a day if that's your fancy. You don't HAVE to cook for yourself or all that.

My blog https://noelfigart.com/wordpress/ I talk about being a freelance writer, working out and cooking mostly. The language is not always drawing room fashion. Just sayin'.
The only one that bothers me is the "does it have more than 5 ingredients?" This is only because I've seen it carried to extremes; even to recipes with more than 5 ingredients.
Other than that -- I love it and that's pretty much how I shop.
"That which we persist in doing becomes easier for us to do. Not that the nature of the thing itself has changed but our power to do it is increased." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"You are what you eat -- so don't be Fast, Easy, Cheap or Fake."
That reminds me of one very useful thing I took from weight watchers - to shop around the outside walls of the supermarket and avoid the inner aisles. The outside is where the fresh and chilled produce is.
Thanks for posting this Noel.
