The "Menu" is divided into the food groups and other lists so you can record the calorie values of the foods you normally eat. There are also categories for casserole-type dishes, frozen/pre-packaged meals and fast food items, which you will have recorded the calorie values for in advance.
It is a lot more fun to have a Personal Choice Menu with "yes" foods on it when you are in a hurry, at a restaurant or at the grocery store. Simply use this form to list items that fit your new way of life and that you know the serving size of and calorie count for each one. This way you can quickly and easily jot down what you ate in your Little Black Book~Daily Food Diary®.
As you discover other new and healthier foods to enjoy you will like the way the food journal and personal choice menu fit into your everyday life. Keep this list in the front pocket of your Little Black Book~Daily Food Diary®.
Begin to incorporate the “Personal Choice Menu” into your daily habit and it becomes your very own customized personal menu. It works as your bring-a-long, working list of acceptable foods to refer to wherever you may be at any given time for a meal or snack. When shopping for groceries, it’s easy to take it out and add forgotten items to your grocery list. With this list, you’re less apt to do impulse shopping and you’ve made a commitment to a healthy lifestyle.
It takes about three copies to fully understand the function of the Personal Choice Menu. Once you understand the function, it becomes another valuable diet and health aid.
