Week Four - The Finale

I regained the little weight I lost last week.  This has been Teacher Appreciation Week, and we seem to be appreciated with food.  It was nice to sit around with peers and colleagues and nosh on pastries, so I don't regret the tiny bit of weight I put back on.

Overall, I think the program is great.  Could you eat the same food for less cost?  Probably so, but you're paying not only for the food, but also for the convenience.  For the discounted price I got of $4 per meal, it was totally worth it.  I lost seven pounds in four weeks with minimal effort, no weird pills, and no cooking.  You can't beat that!

As for this week's food, it was still all quite good.  Everything was repeat food except for two items:

Rotisserie chicken - moist and tender, good flavor: A
Fajita chicken - also moist and tender, but had a chunk of fat in one slice: A-

Again, it's the best pre-packaged diet food I've ever had, and I've tried a few programs. If you are looking for convenience with good flavor, it's a solid bet.  I recommend staying away from the chicken sticks (they're ground up and reformed chicken meat, and that just grosses me out a bit), but everything else has been fantastic.  Overall I give the program a thumbs up.  The customer service was great, they sent me weekly support emails and videos, and the food tasted like food.

If you decide to order, and you'd like to help out a single mom who is going back to grad school, you can order from the link they sent me - you get a $50 discount, and so do I.  :)  You can click on the link below.  If you can find a better discount, though, don't feel pressured to use mine!


Whether you try personal trainer food or something else, good luck to all of you in your attempts to battle the bulge.  In this day and age, with processed low-nutrient foods around us all day, it's hard to eat healthy without a plan.  The personal trainer food plan was definitely easy for me.

Week Three

It was a rough week emotionally, and I didn't follow the plan well.  I lost three tenths of a pound, but I didn't eat the personal trainer food on a few days.  So, I'll just comment on some of the food.

Italian grilled chicken breast - a bit salty, B+
Mozzarella roasted garlic chicken sausage - the cheese was a bit weird, C+
Cheeseburger sticks (I can't remember if I already rated these!) - the meat seemed low quality, but the flavor was good, B-

Hopefully I'll do a better job of sticking to the plan this week.  I want to be down in the 170's, and I'm only about a pound away.

Still, overall the quality of the food has been quite good, and I'm still enjoying the convenience.
