Swap Custom Meals in the Smart Meal Planner:

• Select a client > Click "Meal Plan" on the client card to open your client's profile > 
  
  
  
  
  
  
• This will open your client's Meal Plan on their profile > Hit the meal swap button under any meal > 
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Select the Meal Filters menu > Toggle off "Show meals that best fit nutrition goal" > Hit the blue APPLY button > Custom meals will now appear in your Swap Meal options.  
  
  
  
  
  
  • Note: when this filter is toggled off– swapped meals can overshoot or undershoot a client's set caloric goal.  
    
    
• Select a custom meal from the Meal Swap options > Hit the blue SWAP button > 
  
  

Note: Custom meals can only be manually swapped into a client's meal plan. If you would like to regenerate your client's meal plan, you must do so before swapping in custom meals or you will need to repeat this process.
