A vegan meal plan may appeal to those who enjoy organic foods. There are even meal plans that cater to health issues, like the diabetic meal plan.

A 1600 calorie meal plan and a 1500 calorie meal plan will sustain a body weight range of 130-150 pounds. A 1400 calorie meal plan and a 1300 calorie meal plan will fall into the 120-140 pound range. A 1200 calorie meal plan will sustain a weight range of 100-120 pounds. Anything below 1200 calorie meal plans will not provide enough nutrients to sustain energy.
