Let’s face it: Diets are anything but straightforward. Not only are there hundreds of them out there, but they all come with just so many specifications! From counting macros to counting carbs, it seems that the only way to find a diet that works for our bodies and fits our lifestyle is by employing the help of a nutritionist. Even when we do find a diet that’s theoretically made to work, however, figuring out what we can and can’t eat (paleo, keto and Whole 30, anyone?) requires a degree in nutrition, biology and potentially a dash of witchcraft.

The absolute hardest part of a diet, however, isn’t figuring out what works — rather, it’s sticking to the plan every single day. Motivation is one of the hardest parts (if not the hardest part) of any weight loss or health journey and one of the biggest components of finding a diet that works for our lives is just how easy it is to work it into our day-to-day. Anything that keeps our hands away from the siren call of Chipotle takeout needs to be super easy, filling, fast and delicious!

Luckily, we found all that and more with BistroMD, a food delivery service that’s designed to help users lose weight in a healthy and effective way. Each meal delivered is designed to not only taste good but also be totally balanced to the specific nutritional platform BistroMD uses to help promote safe weight loss.

It’s easy to start! First, all we have to do is pick a meal plan that works for our dietary needs. There are gluten-free and diabetic plans available, as well as plans for those concerned with heart health and menopause. Not concerned with any of those? No worries — a standard plan is also available.

After we select the plan that best suits our needs, we can choose weekly from over 150 mouth-watering chef-prepared meals. There’s even a snack program called EATS, perfect for keeping us away from the cookie jar at our weakest moments.

The best part is just how customizable each plan is. There are multiple plans to choose from, pending just how much involvement we need in our diet and what our normal schedule is like. There’s a full program of seven days, which includes seven breakfasts and lunches, plus six dinners.

If we think we have weekends handled (or just want to do our own thing on Saturday and Sunday) we can opt for the weekday-only program. It’s a full set of meals for five days instead of seven, and it includes that many breakfasts, lunches and dinners.

Not much of a breakfast person? BistroMD got Us covered there, too. We can select a program that only includes seven days’ worth of just lunches and dinners. It’s up to us to whip up our daily granola, cereal, fruit bowl or fancy eggs benedict, however.

Just need the basics? BistroMD has a plan for just the workweek, too. We can select five lunches and dinners for five days. Simple, right?

Of course, if none of the above work for our needs, or if we’re traveling, plan on being out of town or have a varied workweek, we can create a custom program for just our needs.

Once we select a program that works for our schedules and order what we need, the registered BistroMD’s registered dieticians create a custom program for our diets. We can then enter and control the menu we receive week-to-week. We can even set and update our taste preferences in the member portal, totally putting us in control of our own meal plan as well as being able to review the menu we have, make any changes as well as totally customize our own diet program.

Wonder what delicious meals BistroMD has in-store? For dinner, we can pick from lasagna with garden marinara, hickory-smoked BBQ beef with Yukon gold potatoes and turkey breast with cranberry chutney and a wild rice blend — and that’s just the first page! Fans of seafood would love the grilled salmon with lemon dijon dressing and roasted corn and scallop chowder. Love pork? Try the pork tenderloin with mushroom marsala.

Lunch has plenty of hearty favorites, starting with beef chipotle chili and corn pudding, to chipotle pineapple smoked pork street tacos. We’re never going to skip breakfast again, not with delicious sweet onion frittatas and bacon and potato egg scrambles on the menu! We’re already getting hungry!

Let’s get started! We can get 25 percent off plus free shipping to save up to $65 for our first week! With plans starting at just $90 for the first week, what do we have to lose (besides a few pesky pounds?)
