Their "food plan" at that time was based on the heart / diabetic diet, and it worked for me. I divided the daily food requirements amongst the three daily meals and afternoon snack, fitting my food into those categories. It worked for me. I have been back to Weight Watchers since that time but without real success. I could (and should) give The Basic Seven a try according to this method. Eating fat is another issue. My husband, who is very thin, has been diagnosed with high cholesterol and we watch the sat fat content in our food. He eats two or three oat bran muffins (made without flour) every day. He is also very active, working out at a gym and riding his bicycle 2500 miles per year. His weight is borderline too low. I still take in too many calories.
