Key Takeaways

You have options. MyNetDiary offers ten Premium plans (from Mediterranean diet and GLP-1 to Keto and Vegan) so you can build a healthy meal plan that actually matches your health goals, lifestyle, and preferences.
Flexibility is built in. You're never locked into one plan. As your health goals shift (say, from active weight loss to maintenance), you can switch plans at any time without losing progress.
Support goes beyond meal logging. Every plan comes with a science-based educational library and dietitian-approved recipes right in the app.
Always check with your doctor first. Some plans (like Keto or High-Protein) come with health considerations, so a quick conversation with your doctor ensures your chosen plan is safe for your specific needs.

Where's your perfect healthy meal plan? MyNetDiary's got you covered

Let's be honest—figuring out healthy eating can feel like a full-time job. Between conflicting advice, confusing labels, and a million "miracle" diets, it's easy to feel stuck before you even start. That's where MyNetDiary comes in! We've built 10 Premium diet plans to help take the guesswork out of creating your own healthy meal plan and nailing your health goals.

One size doesn't fit all—and that's okay!

We know long-term nutritional goals like losing weight, keeping it off, and feeling your best don't look the same for everyone. That's exactly why we offer a variety of paths to a healthy meal plan that actually fits your life.

Diet Plan	Advantages	Considerations
Premium Calorie Counting	Balances carbs, protein, and fat; great for weight loss and maintenance; no forbidden foods	May not offer enough structure for some.
GLP-1	Flavorful, protein- and fiber-filled foods and recipes. Conveniently track hydration, medication dosing, side effects.	Limits greasy, high-fat meals, sugary snacks, and drinks. Meeting nutrient needs may be challenging.
Mediterranean	Nutritious, plant-forward, heart-healthy, supports blood sugar regulation and cancer prevention.	Limits refined grains like white rice, red and processed meat, added sugar, such as from desserts.
DASH	Whole-food focused, heart-healthy, helps lower blood pressure, supports weight loss.	Emphasizes veggies, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins; limits sodium, saturated fat, sugar.
Keto	High in healthy fats, this low-carb approach supports weight loss and blood sugar control.	Restrictive, low in fiber and certain nutrients, and can be high in saturated fat; not for those with type 1 diabetes.
Low-Carb	Less than 20% of calories from carbs; supports weight loss and blood sugar control.	Somewhat restrictive; may run low in some nutrients.
Low-Fat	Less than 25% of calories from fat; supports weight loss, cholesterol, and digestion.	It can feel limiting if you love fats like nuts or avocados, or cooking with oils.
High-Protein	Personalized protein targets for weight loss, muscle-building, hunger management, or recovery.	Too much protein may raise gout/kidney stone risk — check with your doctor if you have kidney or liver concerns.
Vegetarian	No meat, poultry, or fish (dairy and eggs OK); great for health, budget, and the planet.	Can be restrictive; watch for nutrient gaps.
Vegan	100% plant-based; big health and environmental upside.	More restrictive than a vegetarian meal pattern. Plan ahead for nutrients and social meals.

As always, your safety comes first — chat with your doctor before starting any new plan.

How to pick your plan in the app

Open the "Diet Tools" tab, tap "My Diet," and select the Premium plan you want. Follow the prompts to set your meal-planning preferences, and you're off!

Switch it up whenever life changes

One of the best parts? You're never locked in. Your healthy meal plan can evolve right along with you!

Say you're doing the low-carb plan to power through active weight loss. Once you hit your goal, you might ease into a more relaxed meal pattern for maintenance, like the Mediterranean or DASH diet. Or maybe you're curious about going vegan for the energy boost (and the planet!). Try it for a month, then realize the meal prep isn't quite your vibe? Hop over to the Vegetarian plan instead. No guilt, no pressure, just progress!

Learn as you go

Every Premium plan comes with its own science-based, educational library, so you're never left wondering, "wait, why am I doing this again?" Articles cover everything from getting-started basics to deep dives, like our favorite, the top 10 keto foods.

What's for dinner? We've got you

Dietitian-approved recipes are built right into the app for every healthy meal plan, so last-minute dinner panic is a thing of the past. Just look for the little chef hat icon on your dashboard or while logging food, and you'll find recipe ideas ready to go.

Connect with others

There's no reason to go at this alone. Gathering support can help motivate and inspire you to stay the course with healthy meal planning. If you lack support from family and friends, don't worry. MyNetDiary offers online support for weight loss and healthy eating through our Community feature. Community is a safe place to share successes, offer encouragement, post before-and-after photos, or ask for advice. Users must be 18 years or older to use Community.

To access Community from the app, tap on your dashboard's "Community" tab.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which Premium diet plan is right for me?

It all depends on your health goals! If you're focused on heart health, then Mediterranean or DASH are great starting points. If you want flexibility with no forbidden foods or food groups, Premium Calorie Counting is a solid, sustainable plan. Don't hesitate to consult with a registered dietitian for personalized guidance around selecting a diet plan.

Can I switch between diet plans once I've started?

Yes! You can switch plans anytime directly in the app. Many folks start with a more structured plan (like low-carb) during active weight loss, then transition to something like Mediterranean or DASH for long-term maintenance. There's no penalty for changing your mind as your health goals evolve.

Are the recipes included with each plan, or do I need to find my own?

Recipes are built right into the app for every plan. Just look for the chef hat icon on your Dashboard or while logging food, and you'll find dietitian-approved recipes tailored to your specific plan. You can also import and save your family's favorite recipes in the app.

Is the Keto or High-Protein plan safe for everyone?

Not necessarily. Keto isn't recommended for people with type 1 diabetes, as it may increase the risk of DKA and hypoglycemia (low blood glucose). High-Protein plans may increase the risk of gout or kidney stones for some individuals, especially those with existing kidney or liver conditions. It's always best to check with your doctor before starting either of these plans to make sure it's the right fit for your health.
