Do I think you need to be in the kitchen all day long or spend hours a day learning about nutrition in order to be healthy?

Nope.

All of the recipes in this project were created for their ease of use. The Carb Compatibility Project provides simple ideas that don't take a lot of time or energy. The average dinner takes about 15 minutes to prep.

All in, the core content is about 90 minutes or less per week.

That's only 12 minutes a day.

(If you're anything like me, you probably spend more time than that scrolling on Instagram!)

All content can be consumed as you enjoy—while driving, on a walk, folding laundry or making dinner. It’s like listening to your favorite podcast! :)

You’ll be given 3 days to settle in and explore the getting started materials before you officially begin.

Then, all resources are rolled out on a weekly basis to give you time to look through recipes and plan for the week.

Weekly recipes and food templates are delivered in a PDF booklet. This booklet will take you no more than 15 minutes to read, although you’ll probably reference back to it throughout the week for recipes! You will receive 4 booklets total.

There will also be two recorded lessons: one on nutrition, one on mindful eating. Total recording times are all indicated above. You can listen to each week's lesson in one fell swoop, or in small doses as you have time throughout the week. I have them set up as recordings so you can access them on the fly—while getting ready in the morning, in the car, or in your headphones while on a walk.

(There is also the option to read the transcript of recordings if you prefer.)

It is definitely a plan catered toward safe weight loss. Some of the resources do discuss weight loss and weight loss resistance. If you do have significant weight to lose, I'd say the only way you wouldn't lose weight is if there's an underlying health issue, as the body prioritizes healing over weight loss.

Having said that, this plan is designed to regulate blood sugar and reduce inflammation, so in theory it can be a healing way of eating in and of itself.

This program was not designed for those who are already in ketosis; it’s designed it for those wondering about a low carb diet and whether or not it would work for them.

Having said that...

Common drawbacks of the keto diet: it feels unsustainable, it's overly restrictive, it lacks variety, and it causes diet paralysis (knowing it's not right, but too nervous to change anything).

Erin has had a lot of female clients unnecessarily locked into a very low carb diet, afraid to deviate. This needless restriction and food/carb fear is part of the reason she designed the CCP.

We know that lack of variety in the diet can negatively impact the gut microbiome and also lead to nutrient deficiencies and adrenal problems (amongst other things) which is why Erin’s worked so much variety into the program. This is so if folks *want* to attempt keto, they can do it in a safe and effective way.

So if you are already "keto," but you're feeling some of the things just mentioned, then the CCP could be a good experiment for you. See how you feel adding in more variety and potentially more carbs.

Yes! There is now a plant-based eating guide to help you tailor the CCP to your vegetarian diet.

Generally speaking, pregnancy is NOT the time you want to drop carbs. We do not recommend this program for pregnant women.

We also don’t advise dropping carbohydrates too low while you’re exclusively breastfeeding (meaning, your milk is the only source of nutrients for your baby). If you intuitively feel pulled to this program while breastfeeding, we recommend sticking with the Week 1 or 2 meal plans.

If you have purchased this program outright, you will have access to the materials for life!

Short answer—yes! While the CCP was designed with women in mind, it's absolutely an eating program that men can do! Some of the modules—in particular the hormone modules—are catered towards female hormones; however, this program is completely appropriate for men to do as well.
