| Column Name | Data Type | Description | |--------------|-----------|-------------| | ClientID | Text/Number (Unique) | Auto-generated ID for each client | | Full Name | Text | First and last name of client | | Age | Number (Integer) | Client’s age in years | | Gender | Text (Dropdown: Male, Female, Other) | For demographic tracking | | Goal Type | Text (Dropdown: Weight Loss, Maintenance, Muscle Gain) | Primary nutrition goal | | Target Weight (lbs/kg) | Number | Desired weight target | | Start Date | Date Format | When meal planning began | | Coach Name | Text | Assigned coach for accountability |2. Meal Log (Daily) Sheet (Table: "tblMealLog")
This is the core input sheet with daily entries, designed for real-time tracking. | Column Name | Data Type | Description | |--------------|-----------|-------------| | EntryID | Number (Auto-increment) | Unique entry identifier | | ClientID | Number (Linked to tblClient) | Foreign key reference | | DateLogged | Date Format (MM/DD/YYYY) | Daily log date | | MealType (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snack) | Text (Dropdown) | Time of day for meal entry | | FoodItemName | Text (Free text with auto-suggest list) | Name of food consumed | | PortionSizeGrams | Number (Decimal) | Amount consumed in grams | | CaloriesPer100g | Number (Decimal) | Nutritional data per 100g from database | | TotalCaloriesConsumed | Formula = (PortionSizeGrams * CaloriesPer100g)/100 | Automatically calculated | | ProteinGms | Number (Decimal) | From nutritional database | | CarbsGms | Number (Decimal) | From nutritional database | | FatGms | Number (Decimal) | From nutritional database | | FiberGms | Number (Decimal) ||3. Nutritional Summary (Weekly) Sheet
Aggregates daily data into weekly summaries using Pivot Tables and formulas. | WeekStart | ClientID | AvgCaloriesPerDay | AvgProteinGms/Day | AvgCarbsGms/Day | AvgFatGms/Day | |------------|----------|---------------------|--------------------|------------------|---------------| *(Each row represents a week of data for a single client)*Formulas Required
The template uses dynamic, formula-driven calculations: - **TotalCaloriesConsumed**:`=IF(AND(PortionSizeGrams > 0, CaloriesPer100g > 0), (PortionSizeGrams * CaloriesPer100g)/100, 0)` - **Weekly Avg Calculation (Nutritional Summary Sheet)**:
`=AVERAGEIFS(tblMealLog[TotalCaloriesConsumed], tblMealLog[ClientID], ClientID, tblMealLog[DateLogged], ">= "&WeekStart, tblMealLog[DateLogged], "<= "&WeekStart+6)` - **Nutrient Goals Achievement Check**:
`=IF(AND(AvgProteinGms/Day >= 1.6, AvgCaloriesPerDay <= TargetCalories), "On Track", IF(AvgProteinGms/Day < 1.6, "Low Protein", "Over Calorie"))` - **Date Range Validation**:
`=IF(AND(DateLogged >= StartDate, DateLogged <= EndDate), TRUE, FALSE)`
Conditional Formatting
Enhances data visualization and client progress insights: - **Calories Over/Under Target**: - Green: ≤ Target Calories (e.g., 1800) - Yellow: > Target Calories but ≤ 15% over - Red: >15% over target - **Protein Intake Alerts**: - If AvgProteinGms/Day < Recommended (e.g., 1.6g/kg), apply red highlight. - **Weekly Consistency Flag**: - Green if all meals logged for ≥4 days in the week; yellow if ≤3; red if ≤2.User Instructions
