400 Calories of food gets me what?

I have seen this image before (somewhere on Pinterest I am sure). But, after starting my first day of Medifast it clicked in my brain that if I am going to make this meal plan work I will need to be smart about my additional foods. I am giving up meat and for me that means I need to start looking at beans and eggs for protein. As well as other vegetables that are not normally on my radar. My husband taught me how to make hummus and thanks to my mom I should be getting a nice new blender for Christmas and I plan to fully take advantage of that. I can make hummus, Medifast smoothies, spinach, veggie, and fruit smoothies as well as make fresh salsa or puree. I think that my focus needs to really be on making as much as I can with out having to rely on the cafeteria at work or getting food out at a restaurant until I can get my portions under control and my diet right. Are there any tips you have? Have you used Medifast before? If so what worked best for you?
