Started Diet Chef plan 10 days ago and have lost 8lbs already. This plan for me has been the best I have experienced.
Meals are all set with just fruit and veg and 2 dairy portions to be added plus extra calories depending on the calculations obtained from the diet chef BMI calculator.

So far so good.

    Over time try to replace the diet chef meals with home cooked foods so you build a repertoire and have a learning curve for maintenance

    Great that you're on your way ...expect the loss to reduce dramatically as you stop losing as much water weight after the first couple of weeks

    Having too much good home cooking was my down fall.....with diet chef my body and brain can get used to smaller portions and be full after meals. I like not having to cook separate meals from my family. The whole diet plan is a wonderful start to a healthier life style.

    Good to have fellow slimmers for support!

    I started Diet Chef nearly two weeks ago. I'm doing the 4 week plan to see how I get on. So far so good! I like the structure of the plan and the ease of choosing what to eat each day. I hope its training me to eat smaller quantities and to fill up on fruit & veg. I would like to think that I could prepare my own weekly food plan based on the sorts of things I've been eating so far. I can't afford to do Diet Chef forever! How's everyone else doing?

    Hello Fresh is amazing for this too. They're designed to be healthy balanced meals rather than diet ones, so it averages around 600 calories a meal. What I love is that they provide all the ingredients (except really simple things like salt and pepper) and then you cook it all yourself. The portion sizes are massive. It's just a shame they don't do breakfast and lunch too- but I think they're looking at starting it.

    I'm on Diet Chef. Looking for some buddies or groups for motivation if there are any out there. I sometimes find it boring so struggle to stick to on those days, but am a bit of a food addict so I like how it takes out the equation of deciding what to cook. That's a huge relief tbh
