personalize shakes, snacks and meals without ever counting calories.
Just enter your information in the form below to get a customized meal plan recommendation!
BMI:
BMI - Body Mass Index, is a measurement that uses a scientific formula to determine a person's safest,
healthiest weight based upon their weight and height.
You can interpret your BMI results as follows:
- Below 20 = slender-lean
- 20 to 25 = ideal weight range
- 25 to 30 = overweight (25-27 could be healthy range if large-boned and heavily muscled)
- 30 and above = very overweight/high risk
- 40 and above = extremely overweight / high risk for health complications
Protein Factor:
Protein Factor is a calculation used to determine your optimum calorie or protein intake for
weight loss.
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR):
The number of calories you burns at rest during a 24-hour period.
How do you use the Lean-Protein Estimator which you get with your program? Just follow the simple steps illustrated below.
