Ok, someone below said I can eat dessert 7 days/week. I am on preplanned menu one.
For example, Tuesday--( Just mentioning JC food)
B-Scramble Sn-Yogurt
L- SW Chk S- Toffee Bites (Is this my daily dessert?)
D-Meatloaf S-Yogurt
They only have dessert listed for
M- Snack after dinner
T- Snack after lunch
W- Snack after dinner
Th-Snack after lunch
F-none
S-none
Su-none
The consultant gave me a menu but I am unsure of WHAT to order and eat together for next week. In the dessert/snack section, should I be ordering 7 desserts and 7 snacks?? Can I eat a snack and dessert each day?

Since you on the preplanned menu and you see a JCC why don't you just talk about this in your session? There is the after dinner snack. Some are dessert items and some are fruit/yogurt or vegetables. It sounds like you want a sweet item after dinner. Talk to your jcc about an exchange to have a sweet...

Sorry, I think that might have been me. I guess technically the item that I have in the evening is called a "Snack" on plan. I think of it as dessert because it follows my evening meal....I usually have it about an hour after I eat.
The snack item will be anything on the snack item menu, but I mostly choose things like the toffee bites, graham twists, lemon cake, and cheese curls. There a several other "Snack" items on the menu plan...you can see them listed on the JC website under the menu tab.
If you are on the preplanned menu then those "snack" items are already chosen for you. That's what I did the first two weeks too, but the last two weeks I was on my own personalized menu where I got to pick all my meal and snack items.
Hope this helps...sorry I confused the issue!!!

I would think that on the preplanned menu that you would still have your "7" snacks. They seem to post it at different times. I call it my after dinner snack/dessert but if I am correct, you can eat it anytime.

I believe there are a minimum of 2 "snacks" a day - 1 fruit and one from the JC menu. There are "munchie" snacks, like cheese curls or Bruschetta chips - or - "sweet treats" like double choc cake, lemon cake, toffee bites, etc.
.
If you are on preplanned they are planned as either an afternoon or evening snack. You can switch your snacks around to always have your JC snack in the evening. This is what someone meant when they said you can have "dessert" everyday - having your JC snack in the evening.
.
Next week you could pick all 7 of your snacks instead of preplanned, and could choose all sweet treats if you would like to eat them as a dessert.

You can pick sweet snacks every day if you like. But some of the crunchy ones are great, too, like the cheese curls. I always want dessert too, so sometimes I save a milk and a fruit, and at the end of the day I have yogurt topped with fresh or frozen strawberries, peaches or blueberries, drizzled with a little honey, and sprinkled with cinnamon. Delicious, and feels like dessert! (You could use fat-free vanilla, but I actually like the plain, unsweetened yogurt I now make myself.)
This also goes great with a bag of the toffee cookies, if you haven't gotten all that in by the end of the day already....
