Just wondering instead of buying ALL those ingredients for the week, can we mix and match one day and do that all week? Thanks!

the time that you eat does not matter...it is calories in and calories out (expended/burned). The myth arose due to the type of foods some people indulge in later in the evening (those without a plan to follow). Also, often late night eating involves snacking while watching TV (which can lead to inattention and therefore excess calories).

Thanks Jessica, good to hear about the Luna bars. There aren't enough foods here for people on the go! What about the foods that I can grab when I'm speeding from the office to an event? Or when I can't bring lunch cause I have to lunch with a client or I didn't have time to make one. Most places don't serve stuff like this. Where are the regular sandwiches? And where's the coffee?
