It’s true that Eat This Much makes meal planning MUCH simpler than figuring it out on your own, but even with our meal generator, healthy recipes, food bank and countless helpful features, there’s work to put in if you want to reach your diet and nutritional goals. Weight loss takes effort. Gaining muscle takes effort. Even maintaining your weight while not eating crappy foods takes some effort.
With this in mind, we offer everyone who signs up for an account with us a little guide to get them motivated and moving on the right path toward diet success. We call it the “8 Part Series on Mastering Meal Planning” and to date it’s been sent to thousands of Eat This Much users who wanted extra support as they embarked on their new meal plan.
When read in order, and over the course of a month, this series provides timely advice for challenges and setbacks many face when changing the way they eat. Cravings, lack of motivation, and wanting to give up are all perfectly normal responses to an adjusted diet. This guide helps you get around all of that.
As of today, we made the entire guide available here on the Eat This Much blog to help make eating better easier for everyone.
How you use the guide is completely up to you. Whether you choose to read all 8 chapters in one day or space it out over a few weeks, the nutritional insight and encouragement will serve you well. As always, you can email us with questions, feature requests, or just to say hello at contact@eatthismuch.com. We love hearing from our users and wish everyone the best of luck reaching their diet goals.

This is the same guide as you sent in the emails right? thanks
Yep, these articles are almost the same as our email series. We got a lot of messages from people who regretted opting-out of receiving the guide when they signed up for ETM, but also didn’t want to wait for each email to arrive, so we put it up here for anyone to read through.
Took a while to get the planning habit to stuck, but I’ve been following a meal plan successfully for the first time now. Using the free account and mostly eating the same things every day, then the grocery list is simple and I can write it down manually.
Can you guys improve the food search interface? Barcode scanning doesn’t always work well either. Otherwise great app, helped me lost 12lbs last month.
