There isn’t a specific list of foods that are “allowed” or “off limits” with MacroRx+.

When deciding whether a food fits, ask:

1. How does it fit my calorie target?
2. Does it help or hurt my ability to reach my protein target?
3. How does the portion affect my carbohydrate target and the rest of my day?

Whenever possible, log the food before you eat it. Look at how the portion fits your prescription, then adjust the serving size or the rest of your meals if needed.

We encourage you to build most of your diet around whole and minimally processed foods that provide plenty of protein, fiber and micronutrients. But restaurant meals, desserts, snacks and other foods you enjoy can absolutely fit into your plan.

Some foods are simply easier to fit into your prescription than others. That doesn’t make the harder-to-fit foods “bad” — it just means portion size and frequency matter.

An occasional less nutrient-dense choice doesn’t undo an otherwise consistent diet, and you don’t need to eat perfectly to make progress.

The goal isn’t to find out whether a food is “allowed.” The goal is to learn how to make intentional choices that fit your prescription and your life.
