		<description>Sue, it is great to hear your enthusiasm on your Personalized Nutrition Program.  Depending on the scoop size and the serving size of your protein powder/products you will be able to figure out the protein to scoop size required for your program. Be sure to use only pure protein products with no carbs and fats as your program will call for you to add fresh fruit for flavor.

First be sure to note that it is the actual protein we are aiming to achieve, not the protein powder weight.  Most supplement companies state the scoop size or weight but if you look closely at the Supplemental facts you will see, "Scoop Size or Serving Size" and below that you will see the proteins, carbohydrates and fats in each scoop.  [note: the scoop weight in grams and the protein in grams are two different measurements]  If your protein powder states a serving size is 35 grams of protein powder (not 35 grams total weight) then the math is simple.  2 scoops = 35 grams of protein, 1 scoop = @ 17 grams of protein.  You want to be as close to your program as possible, so 1 scoop is almost 14 grams of pure protein powder.  Close is good, no one is perfect.  When in doubt always fault with a little more protein.  1 gram of protein here and there will aid in fat burning and lean tissue maintainance.  Just be sure that you are breaking down the actual protein grams not the total weight grams per serving or scoop.

Secondly, this program has been created just for you with a systematic approach of nutritional science and art.  Stick with it as best you can for the first 28 days.  Do not remove anything.  The only thing to cut out is the rest of a meal if you feel full. Just trust us and stick to the program designed for you.  It was designed to optimally support your hormonal balance for the ideal results.  If anything can be reduced sligthly, it is the carbohydrates; never reduce your proteins in an effort to lose bodyfat and increase or maintain lean tissue.  Protein is the main ingredient to boost your metabolism, besides your effort and dedication in a fat loss program.

Good luck, have fun, and remember there will be no "miracle",  just the results of your hard work and effort following your personalized nutrition and exercise program designed just for you.  Be sure to tell your friends and encourage them to enjoy the journey with you and change your lives together.

		<description>I am really looking forward to more information on how to shop and to know the quantities.  I have been using my prescriptive nutrition for 1 week now.  It sure does take a lot of planning,  at first I was hungry all the time but then I got the protein powder which was in my plan but taken out by the nutrionist.  This makes me feel much better.  The measurement comes in a 35 gram container though and I am trying to figure out how much 7, 14 , and 21 grams are.  Otherwise I am have fun and hoping for a miracle to happen in time.  Thank you so much for the support.  The team is great at helping.        Sue</description>
