I absolutely agree it can be a tool to eating more healthy foods from those groups. I don't think a restrictive meal plan is helpful because it's not realistic. Just my opinion.

How did the meal plan work for you? Did anyone find out the quantities? I just recently saw The Dr.Oz 6 meal plan segment. How did the meal plan work for you? Did anyone find out the quantities?

Otherwise a person could eat an insufficient amount OR one could eat too much. Anyone who has ever dieted knows that portion control is very important.

I definitely don't recommend the plan for newcomers - I think it'd be a fast way to turn someone off to healthier eating. It'd be too much of a massive change. I DO think, however, that it helps one become better acquainted with highlighting and focusing on better nutrition... making sure you're getting these things in on a regular basis. If you're a newcomer? DEFINITELY focus on the small victories. Gotta win the battles in order to beat the war. :) Helena, that's the exact point! On this plan, you're eating a little bit of something every couple of hours, so your body doesn't get the chance to really get hungry. It's really the best bet. Mstarenetta, You’re very welcome!

This is the entire day's worth of food, and I think the average caloric intake is somewhere around 250cals a piece. That's on average, though - you can borrow from an earlier meal if necessary. It doesn't seem like a lot of food but after your body gets used to real food, you will find yourself becoming full much quicker.

I have two simple questions about Dr. Oz's meal plan, and as you have followed it and seem to like it, I thought I'd ask you. I hope it's not a bother! --What serving size/how many calories are you supposed to aim for for each of the mini-meals? I've tried looking for this information, but can't seem to find it. For instance, what size is the whole wheat bagel that Dr Oz recommends for meal #3? --Is this the entire day's food? (I'm assuming it is, but you know what they say about assuming...) Thanks!

Dr.Oz ^ meal plan is good for me because I like to eat throughout the day. Since eating is frequentI feel full and don't feel a need to go on a starvation induced binge. Love this site.

I think the meal plan would be perfect for people who are more discipline in weight loss journey than beginners. For example someone who loss 20 pounds and want to loss 10 more. A newcomer like myself, I find the restriction to be too much but maybe down the line I'll try it out. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my question to you.
