Why the Core Plan?
It’s easy to follow. With the Core Plan, there’s no counting—you can eat as much as you need to feel satisfied. The Core Plan provides a balanced diet by centering on a list of healthy foods that keep you full longer. These Core Foods include avocados, potatoes, salsa, brown rice, lean meats, and more.

How the Core Plan works
The Core Food List is based on the science of energy density. It contains foods that are low in energy density, meaning they contain a small number of calories per ounce. That means they’ll make you feel more satisfied while you are actually consuming fewer calories. You can mix and match these foods as much as you want, and you’ll learn to stay aware of hunger and fullness, so you won’t overeat.

Along with eating any Core Foods you want, you get a “Weekly Allowance” for foods that aren’t on the Core Plan. You can use them for daily treats, a night on the town, or a special occasion--so you can still indulge sometimes, without going off track.
