“BistroMD has helped me achieve my dreams!”

I have struggled with weight my whole life. In fact, yo-yo dieting has been such a big part of my life that it seems weird to have something that finally works for me.

BistroMD has helped me achieve my dreams because I needed my own chef in my house. With a full-time job, and my wife working full-time and raising our kids, neither one of us really have time to cook for ourselves. With BistroMD, it’s like I have my own personal chef, and I get free support from a dietitian. I have all the confidence I need to succeed. I don’t have to worry about cooking, or what I’m going to eat anymore.

“Everything about the plan is awesome!”

I have been eating Bistro MD meals five days per week for one month now and I’ve already lost 10 pounds. Other than starting the meal plan, I haven’t made any other lifestyle changes. I love to cook, eat healthy, and try all of the great restaurants in NYC, where I live.

So I was skeptical, to say the least, about living on pre-made food. I fully expected to give up flavor, variety, and most of all decent portions. I was way off on all counts! The food is amazing. When BistroMD says “restaurant quality” they mean it! The portions are perfect for me. I’m a big eater – portion control is one of my major food problems – and I have never felt deprived or hungry while eating BistroMD meals. They are satisfying in every way. The snacks are also great, and give me the between meal boost that I need. It’s hard to believe that I’ve never really felt hungry on the plan.

My other concern with this diet was beverages. I love beer. I’m a beer connoisseur. I’ve traveled the world drinking some of the best beers ever made. I wasn’t about to give it up. I didn’t. I’ve been drinking beer, adding a little extra food on occasion, enjoying my days off on the weekend, and haven’t altered my life what-so-ever – and I’ve still lost 10 pounds! I’ve tried for years to lose that same 10 pounds but I could never break through that plateau. Now I’ve done it, without even trying! I also have a cholesterol problem, so I had my doctor review the BistroMD website / plan before I started it, and he fully approves.

When I go out to eat with friends, I either eat with them (and save my meal for a weekend) or I have a salad and eat my BistroMD before or after going out. It’s also so easy to bring to work. I often work long hours, so I bring my lunch and dinner to work and make it in the microwave. The customer service is excellent too. I’ve made a couple of requests about certain foods / snacks that I didn’t love, and they happily made the adjustment before my next delivery.

Everything about the plan is awesome!

“Long story short, Tom has lost 38 pounds, was able to get off insulin, and is feeling great!”

My son Tom is in a program for semi-independent disabled adults in Irvine, California, called Project Independence. He has Prader-Willi Syndrome, which is a birth defect resulting in a dysfunction of the brain. This creates a preoccupation with food, and causes extreme weight gain on what is considered normal caloric intake for others. He is also diabetic. About two years ago, I was told by his team leader that Tom would probably have to leave the program because his weight was getting out of control. Tom loves the program, and has many friends there, including his girlfriend Heather.

In desperation, I started searching the internet for a food delivery program that might be right for Tom, so he could stay at Project Independence. There were a lot of programs, but nothing seemed to be appropriate. During my research, I came across BistroMD. It sounded healthy, but I thought it had too many calories for Tom. I called the dietitian to see if the calories could be reduced and it was suggested that we give the diet a try as is. I read that Dr. Cederquist designed this diet for weight loss and was appropriate for diabetics and heart patients. It sounded too good to be true.

Long story short, Tom has lost 38 pounds, was able to get off insulin, and is feeling great! He is eating more calories than before – - just the right kind of calories. He has 8 more pounds to go before he reaches his goal. Tom is a lovable 38-year-old young man, and when food intake is properly managed, he is free to enjoy life. BistroMD has been a blessing to all of us.
