Diet Reviews

This diet is difficult to follow for a two person household It is working but the menus aren t friendly for a person my husband to eat properly we have to make too many adjustments for his meals We are seniors with different needs and as well have physical limitations Repetition through the week eg stir fries don t suit nor does chewing raw vegetables for snacks It is effective so far but not a normal diet A family will find it too expensive given the cost of foods in Canada

Be very careful in clearly understanding this is an auto-renewal program They will auto-renew your subscription at the rate of your original subscription and the auto-renewal is non-refundable Read the fine print

After registering I changed my start date but it never did change on my laptop while it did change on the app I have found the app quite challenging to navigate although I ve managed some of it by trial and error One thing that is an irritant on the app is not being able to look ahead to the next week so I can plan and shop ahead Or maybe I just haven t figured it out yet I have to go to my laptop if I want to look ahead I am enjoying the meal plan and recipes for the most part but groceries end up being wasted because they change significantly from one week to the next So for example cabbage or fresh herbs end up going to waste

Can t get into it Mobile app Is clumsy to navigate and not well adapted to everyday use difficult interface Can t easily set menu items that are home made without getting complicated There is worth here and I will pursue more diligently than I have Worth it

Excellent support advice and information What they don t tell you until you have signed up for a year is that you get 12 weeks of support and then it s all repeat

The good news is that I have been doing the diet for 3 days and have lost 3 3 pounds I like the food and the ease of putting together the meals The bad news is that I signed up for the MC diet during the Christmas holidays and like most people knew I wouldn t start until the holidays were over Unfortunately you can only change your start date once within the initial 7 days So even though the plan has me at week 3 I am back tracking because I am really on week 1 There is confusion for me in trying to figure what day I am on but I am figuring it out

Totally frustrated with this diet Scanned items do not match foods listed No idea if I m on the right path when foods are listed 5 and 6 times and they re all different values CRAZY I understand it s not perfect but this is t even close and no direct communication available

A lot of the recipes are tasty I have been introduced to recipes I normally would not have tried and I will use in the future I have not had food cravings but I have been quite hungry Having the swap options is helpful The trackers work well Including exercise options for people with underlying health issues would be useful Some of the food ingedients are extremely expensive while other are seasonal It would be nice if there was an alternative in those cases besides the food swap option I drink black coffee with milk To know that the diet is only set up for black coffee would have been important to me My weight loss has been marginal despite sticken with the diet It is difficult to get individual help which on one hand makes sense as the diet program is not very expensive on the other it can leave the user dangeling For me the final verdict on the Mayo Diet is still out

I have been very pleased with the relative simplicity of the menu which is good for me as a male with very limited cooking experience I made the right choice in selecting the simple menu The web site is generally user friendly and keeps up with menus week by week If I have a complaint it is that some of the menu items such as Quinoa are not readily available in the rural area where I live

The Mayo Clinic Diet is well organized It provides tools to track your eating and exercise as well as tons of meal plans and recipes I also really like the online community Everyone is so supportive and MCD administration answers questions quickly After following the diet for two weeks I lost 10 pounds I always felt full and felt like I was eating really healthy meals The tools I have been given are helping me make diet decisions that will hopefully stop the yo-yo dieting I experienced for years
