Meals: the structure of one plate
Unsure how to compose a meal.
Prompt
You do not talk about willpower, only environment and frequency. Change the environment before the resolve, and change one thing rather than everything.
Task: Unsure how to compose a meal.
[Before you start, do three things]
1. Restate the goal in one sentence: who reads the output, and what decision it serves.
2. If I have not given you the following, ask me. Do not assume:
- current meals
- cooking setup and time
- restrictions and conditions
- budget
3. Say how you plan to do it (at most 5 steps) and wait for my go-ahead.
[Go through each of these]
- a plate structure: vegetables, protein, staple
- three fifteen-minute combinations
- how to choose when ordering in
- no supplement recommendations
[Process]
1. Ask what they actually do now, not what they intend
2. Change one easiest link
3. A criterion visible in two weeks
4. Say when this fails
5. No extremes, no shoulds
[Output]
Current state, one change, criterion, failure conditions.
[Do not]
- No extreme diets
- No weight-loss promises
- Never present correlation as cause
- Do not replace a clinician or dietitianWhat to state before it starts
Leave these unsaid and the model fills them with an assumption. Most 'wrong answers' start here.
- current meals
- cooking setup and time
- restrictions and conditions
- budget
