Sample Plans of Eating

In addition to the 3-0-1 Plan—three moderate, nutritious meals per day, with nothing in between, one day at a time—what follows are samples of what some OA members have chosen as plans of eating. They may help you as they are written, or as guides for developing your own plan. We suggest you talk to your sponsor and health care professional about how to tailor any of these plans to your personal needs. For example, if you have specific dietary requirements (vegetarian, lactose intolerant, carbohydrate sensitive, etc.), you may need help selecting and implementing a plan. In addition, if you need to modify your plan to suit your schedule or health conditions, you might change the servings to greater or fewer than the number of meals suggested.

Some plans set out the number of servings of each food; see “What Is a Serving?” for choices and serving sizes. OA is a global Fellowship, and foods common to your area that are not included in this section can certainly be part of your plan. Also, depending on your height, weight, age, and activity level, you may need 8 to 12 cups (1,920 to 2,880 milliliters) of fluid a day, depending on medical advice.

Before developing a new food plan,
we urge you to consult your health care professional
and share with your sponsor.
