Food is good , easy to get thru the day with out thinking of food every moment .

I have been utilizing this company for close to 3 months with good success. I am a traveling nurse and I am not very domestic and the atmosphere doesn't lend itself to encouraging that either with living out of hotels, Airbnb sites, extended stay places, etc. However, this company has definitely increased my health factor with the preprepared meals that I just simply heat up. Some I like, some I don't so much but I love the fact I can remove the one's I don't from my shipping program and eventually you pare it down to meals you can enjoy. I love their fish and chicken meals the most so far as taste and consistency. The steak meals are not my favorite but they are ok occasionally. Without really trying and just by maintaining the program I lost close to 10 pounds... and it was that 10 pounds that would just never depart no matter how hard I tried or how active I was. What I have learned is that my own meal plan was not as healthy as I believed it was prior to bistroMD. It has really reinforced better eating habits and food choices. I am also hopeful that once I have been on it for 6 months, that when I go back for a cholesterol check and an A1C, that those numbers will be improved. I have brought the cholesterol numbers down only slightly in the last 5 years and am unfortunately pre diabetic by genetics and not lifestyle and am hopeful this eating plan will finally help me kick the butt on those two villians. I am not in favor of using meds if I don't have to. I started out eating it pretty much 100% and have gradually incorporated my own improved eating habits back into the mix. It has been very helpful and informative even without the use of the nutritionist, which I haven't utilized as yet. I don't give it a 5 star rating because I always think there is room for improvement and I think more flexibility in the meal selections would be an improvement. If I would like to order all breakfasts and dinners I think that should be available. However, I can't complain about the success they have assisted me in achieving so I will leave that up to the experts. Just using their service has been an education in portions and food selections as I have a tendency to settle on repetitive food choices as I am a very picky eater so they have introduced me to a lot of new things. Good job guys!

Most of the food is pretty tasty. Their clam chowder is some of the best I've had anywhere. A couple orders have arrived room temperature and unsafe to consume, but both of those instances customer service was very accommodating and refunded me my money. I haven't lost any weight yet, but that is my own fault, not theirs. I would give them five stars if the program were more affordable and if they had more vegetarian options as I get tired of eating so much meat after a while. Also, contrary to what some others have complained about, I love the eggplant in the meals. They are a nice break from the usual broccoli side dish.

Overall I a very happy with this program. I suffer from a severe and chronic painful condition that affects my quality of life. I often shopped for healthy foods and became frustrated at how often much of that went into the garbage because I was too ill to cook it. On this program I have healthy meals each day and all I have to do is remember to take it out of the freezer the night before and then heat it up. I like the variety, I like how easy it is to select those items that I enjoy, and if there is an occasional dish that I do not care for, it is very easy to remove it from my menu and it is never shipped to me again!!! And without even trying I have already lost 28 pounds just by eating the food as it is shipped to me. I hope one day my condition will improve and I can return to my "normal" life in which I enjoy cooking, but until then I am thankful that I found this program!!!

So far I have enjoyed most of the meals I have tried from BistroMD. The service is a little on the pricey side but it definitely saves me on busy weeks when I have no time to cook. Also the VIP table community is a great way to learn about some new things and also receive great rewards. I had an issue with delivery of my meals once with the tracking info not being sent but it has been smooth sailing since. My only 2 issues are I don't know if it's actually helping me to lose any weight and I don't really understand how the interaction with a nutritionist is supposed to take place. The latter could probably be solved with some more research on my part. Overall I like the program and will continue with it since the food itself is very tasty and easy.

Food is good....weight loss is occurring without hunger....it is a bit pricey. Like the option.of changing from 7days a week to 5 days a week to increase my own responsibility to make good choices to maintain and continue weight loss progress.

The plan is easy as the meals are scientifically chosen for you. You have the ability to choose from other meals.  The plan is expensive but the community support is really great and you can earn points by participating. You can use the points to get discounts on your weekly plan.

You get what you pay for. Food I would never create on my own, for a party of 1. Top quality entrees. Always well portioned. I am never hungry. As someone who works out I need a meal service that is less focused on the word "DIET" and more focused on healthy meals, with a high protein to get me satisfied and my metabolism running all day. My only issue with the program thus far is that my selections of entrees and ingredients that I don't like tends to refresh and I have had the occasion of receiving entrees that I did not enjoy. Lesson learned! Always review your menu before it ships.
