Hi Shirley,
Thanks for asking those questions… unfortunately sugar free candy and ginger ale are not allowed during phase 1 of the program. The artificial sweeteners and sugar does not go hand in hand with phase 1. We will send you the menu plan to your e-mail. Make sure your browser (google chrome, safari, etc.) does not block downloads because that happens a lot!
The site is simple to use: The top categories at the top of the page are going to be your guide ( NEWS, RECIPES, FORUM, FACEBOOK GROUP, MEMBER STORE) and anytime you want to post any questions under any topics just scroll to the bottom of the page where you will see a box to type in.
Sugar will come in the form of your fruits, and you are allowed 2 servings per day as mentioned in the approved foods list in the book. You can also use Stevia as a sweetener, but use sparingly because it acts as sugar in the body!
Quest Protein powder is the protein shake we recommend if you are on the go, and cannot make a meal with protein! They are nice to have on hand. Any flavor works.
