[section]Pinning and Regenerating[/section]

Note: This feature may not be available depending on how your coach has configured your plan.

1. Go to the Meal Plan tab.
2. Click the “Pin & Regenerate” button.
3. Pin the meals that you want to keep in place by clicking the pin button and turning it green. All of the unpinned meals will be replaced by other meals that meet your targets.

[section]Off-Plan Meals[/section]

Note: This feature may not be available depending on how your coach has configured your plan.

Planning on going out to eat lunch with coworkers this week? Or maybe you have a weekly date night at a restaurant? You can set up these scenarios in the app. It won’t recommend a meal that day, but will tell you the macros to shoot for.

1. Go to the Meal Plan tab.
2. Click the the “Off-Plan” button.
3. Select the days you would like to replace with an off-plan meal and click “Confirm”. You can click the lock to lock it in place so the meal will automatically be off-plan every week.
4. You can see the recommended calorie/macro amounts for that meal by looking at the meal details (Meal Plan tab > click image of off-plan meal).

[section]Changing Portion Sizes[/section]

Note: This feature may not be available depending on how your coach has configured your plan.

Your portion sizes for all recipes are automatically adjusted to meet your goals and are displayed in the recipe details. You can adjust the portion by:

1. Go to the Meal Plan tab
2. Click on the image of meal that you want to adjust the portions for
3. Click on the “…” button on the recipe 
4. Click “Adjust Portions”
5. Update portion size and click “Save”

Note: Changing portion sizes may throw your meal plan off of its nutrition goals. Randomize sides or swap out/regenerate different meals to get back on target.

[section]If Your Meal Plan Isn’t Matching Your Targets[/section]

Note: This feature may not be available depending on how your coach has configured your plan.

If your plan doesn’t meet your calorie/macro targets, you will see a red error alert like the following:

There are multiple solutions:

1. The fastest way to solve this is to use the pin and regenerate functionality. The app will replace any unpinned meal(s) with another that meets your targets.
2. Try swapping some meals or randomizing side dishes.
   • Ideally, the recipes you’re replacing should be part of the problem with why your meal plan isn’t meeting your targets. For example, if your plan has too many calories, pick a high-calorie side dish to replace (or remove) or if your plan has too little protein, choose a low-protein side dish to replace, and so on.
3. If after this, you still can’t make it fit your macros, it may be because your overall settings are so restrictive that the algorithm can’t find enough meals that hit your macros. This usually happens for people with very restrictive settings (e.g. someone trying to do a keto diet who also has a dairy allergy, someone trying to eat a very high protein vegan diet). If this is you, you can try adding a few of your own recipes that do a really good job of hitting your targets and regenerate the meal plan around them or reach out to your coach for guidance.
