Diet Reviews

The application seems to work on the Windows PC but the Apple Ipad version need to refresh screen after updates and deletes I am eating basic food as I clean up my pre-cooked item from starting the diet Shortly I will try the menus they have but working using the plate portions has me down 7 pounds

My wife have just completed the lose it phase and have enjoyed most meals I have lost 16 pounds so far and have not experienced fatigue or loss of strength So far so good not sold on vegetarian lifestyle though so we will have to see how that goes

The program works lost 23lbs in my first month Great variety to the meal plans I am using the Mediterranean but designed by a real chef so be prepared to spend significant extra time shopping often over a dozen ingredients per recipe prepping cooking and cleaning up afterwards Knocked one star off as this service isn t great for single folk better for couples or families Too many wasted ingredients Haven t tried their simple meal plan yet that sounds like it will solve many of my issues

The diet provides realistic recipes There is considerable prep for some meals but they are often in quantities that suffice for two-three meals The meal tracking requires some practice I prefer paper but use it to check calories to make certain I m not inadvertently cheating Lot s of info and support I ve lost 12 pounds in two weeks I d recommend this diet over packaged diets I m using the Mayo diet I might switch to the Mediterranean option in the future

The results are there 2 weeks and 10 pounds Just follow the meal and exercise plans and you will lose weight Changing how and what you eat is not an easy thing to do but the program helps by guiding you with comprehensive meal plans and recipes to help take the guess work out of the equation Only gave 4 stars because it can be difficult to navigate the Meal Planner Shopping List function when trying to accommodate two people with different meal plans and dietary needs

I think the Habit Tracker is what works the best for me along with the simple menu that I chose also the serving sizes are helpful too While I feel it is taking me a few weeks to get used to a whole new way of eating and changing some habits along with learning some new ones this is the diet that I believe is the best one for me and will help me keep the weight off in the long run Thank you for creating this most doable diet

I reached my goal of losing 18 lbs in 12 weeks I have had great success and very pleased with the tools available with the MCD There are also seven of my family members who have great success on the MCD However the tracker could use some improvement to make it more consumer friendly 1 Searching for food items should include unknown versions of the majority of items A lot of brands we use in Texas aren t in the tracker Also when we eat out we go to healthy restaurants that make their own dishes The tracker search is generally chain restaurants which tend to not be healthy 2 Measurements in the tracker should include more options than listed for all items For example it s very difficult to track one teaspoon when the option only offers one cup 3 The Meal Plan should allow you to swap meals between breakfast lunch and dinner That then allows for more accurate and easier planning

I love this program Even though I have reached the suggested goal weight I want to lose a few more pounds for wiggle room What I like most is the variety of food options and the ability to swap meals that I don t care for I have really focused on portion control and feel my healthy habits will be sustainable over time The only reason I gave the program 4 stars is it took me time to understand all the flexibilities tracking

Comprehensive easy to follow guidelines on changing your eating and living habits Although all recipes ensure that you re cooking with real food all the time they re kept simple so you re not overwhelmed with instructions and ingredients I chose to try Mayo Clinic because I trusted their brand their diet lived up to my expectations

Read the fine print - even if you cancel they re still going to charge you The meals do not appeal to me at all Maybe in another life this plan would work for me but I ve gotten nothing out of it Update - even though this program is not for me I think it would work great for others Customer service is very responsive helpful
