Yes! Friends with Food does not provide meal plans of any kind, so that clients can learn to compose meals that they enjoy based on their preferences. The program is highly flexible and will work regardless of your dietary preferences.

The scale is a useful tool for measurement, and you might like to have one on hand at least at the beginning and each of each 12 week cycle.
