What does 1900 calories actually look like?
Probably a lot more like normal food than you’re expecting.
Think Breakfast McMuffins, chicken pad Thai, creamy salmon gnocchi, butter chicken pizza, Big Mac bowls and plenty of fruit, vegetables, protein-rich foods and fibre along the way.
And yes, there’s dessert every week.
This isn’t just about hitting a calorie number. The meals are designed to show you what balanced eating can look like, with nourishing foods and your soul foods living in the same plan.
How the 8 weeks works:

1. Pick a day and follow it as written.

Not sure 1900 calories is right for you?
Don’t automatically choose the lowest calorie plan because you think it will get you there faster.
Your needs depend on your current intake, body size, activity, training and goals, so 1900 calories won’t be right for everyone.

Hi, I’m Maria
I’m a Nationally Recognised Nutritionist (NRN), registered with Nutrition Council Australia and qualified with the 11046NAT Certificate IV in Nutrition.
I created these plans because I spent years believing that changing my body meant eating less, cutting foods out and starting again every Monday.
I wanted to create the kind of structure I wish I’d had: proper meals, clear portions and room for the foods that make life enjoyable.
