Biggest Loser Meal Delivery Plan
Created by Biggest Loser doctors and delivered by Bistro MD.
BACKGROUND
During the past five years, Biggest Loser has not only helped its contestants regain their lives through healthy weight loss and eating, it has inspired the world to do the same. Each week, the aggressive workouts trainers Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper put the contestants through are right there for all of us to see. What viewers miss out on are the insights into their diet. Through the Biggest Loser Club and new book Biggest Loser Secrets, fans have slowly gained access to the inside workings of the show.
Now, Biggest Loser introduces its very own meal delivery plan. Not only can you learn how to eat healthier, but you don't have to cook any of it. The Biggest Loser Meal Delivery Fan will deliver directly to your front door. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner the way the Biggest Loser contestants would eat, without ever having to lift a finger. It doesn't get much easier than that.
Biggest Loser has partnered with one of the highest quality meal delivery programs, Bistro M.D. Together with the Biggest Loser nutrition experts and doctors, they've created meals that will help you lose weight, stay fit and learn healthy nutrition for a lifetime. [Mark Kruger from Biggest Loser][1] season 5 was the first to use the meal delivery and had this to say- "It has a direct effect on my positive weight loss! Without BistroMD.com I could not have achieved the weight loss at home that I have. This plan is part of my success!"
Whether you're a fan of Biggest Loser, or a fan of living healthy and enjoying gourmet foods- then you should consider the Biggest Loser Meal Plan.

DIET and NUTRITION
One thing you'll never say with the Biggest Loser Meal Plan is "I'm bored!" The Biggest Loser and Bistro M.D. chefs keep it fresh by continually updating the menu. Just like the Biggest Loser contestants- your meals will cut the fat, reduce calories, include little-to-no sugar and feature plenty of lean protein sources like turkey, fish and seafood, and chicken, as well as fruits and vegetables. Mark Kruger says "It is all incredibly tasty and well put together. I love the fact that the nutrition information is with the package and easy to read. Because of that I know exactly where my calories are with every meal."
The meal plan was designed with the dietary needs of Diabetics in mind, although they do encourage you to check with your physician before changing meal plans. There are few options available for vegetarians- but it can be done. They'll simply replace the meat-concentrated meals with vegetarian-friendly, although the choices are limited. There is no opportunity for customized menus; however, if you do not eat seafood, you can request those meals be replaced with a different protein.
The meals will arrive in vacuum-sealed containers, inside of a cooler packed with dry ice. The meals are frozen on delivery, all you have to do is heat and serve.
A glimpse of some of the meals you can look forward to enjoying are:
Breakfast - Raspberry pastry - Honey oat waffle with no sugar maple syrup - Poppy seed bagel with Canadian bacon and egg whites
Lunch - Blackened tilapia with fresh vegetables and roasted corn - Black bean soup - Grilled chicken breast with fajita seasoning, salsa verde, corn and black beans
Dinner - Bleu cheese, bacon and mushroom stuffed chicken breast with vegetables - Chicken breast in a marsala wine sauce with green beans and roasted baby carrots - Pork tenderloin with apple cider sauce, fuji apples and roasted vegetables
EXERCISE
While it's obvious that the Biggest Loser has a significant focus on exercise and fitness, there are no plans include with the meal delivery. This is not to say that other options aren't available. Via the Biggest Loser Club online, several book releases, trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels each have DVD and books lending fitness guidance- all options provide a wealth of information to keep you moving to supplement your diet efforts.
CONCLUSION
The Biggest Loser Meal Plan really is the best of both worlds- you'll enjoy a gourmet, doctor/chef created menu to help you lose weight all shipped from one of the leading healthy meal delivery services, Bistro M.D. Two brands that can be trusted to ensure you're eating healthy, learning better nutrition, and losing unnecessary pounds.
Each week you'll receive five or seven meals, including breakfast, lunch and dinner. You'll save time that would have been spent shopping, chopping, measuring and cooking. Instead, you can fix a healthy breakfast, take lunch with you and have dinner ready in minutes.
You've seen the weight they can lose on Biggest Loser- bring that kind of knowledge into your very own kitchen with the Biggest Loser Meal plan.

"Know Thyself"... I finally know that I am terrible at grocery shopping, meal planning and preparing food. I usually exist on 3+ meals a day that are take out or frozen. After the initial sticker shock of this meal plan, I realized I was probably spending more monthly on my current eating habits, so I invested. Today is day 2. The meals are great, everything I love! Large portions of protein, low salt but still very tasty due to creative uses of herbs and spices, fresh veggies that still seem to have some nutritional value, and generous portions. My only con is that I hate sweets, and most breakfasts cater to great big fat people who would die without a donut in the morning. I am a meat eater and would love more meaty breakfasts. I love it and plan to stay on it- if only I could give up my beer at night!!
worked for me and i lost 15 pounds in 4 weeks.
I ordered my first week of Bistro MD two weeks ago. Since I'm a fan of Biggest Loser and they promote this food plan, I anxiously awaited the arrival of the food. I was greatly disappointed. The food is horrible. I hoped the next meal would be better than the last, but it was not. After two days, I tried to cancel my membership. It was then I learned that 48 hours after I placed my 1st order, they had already processed the 2nd shipment and they would not cancel it. The 2nd shipment arrived today, 9 out of 14 of the lunch/dinners are EXACTLY the same as week one. I would avoid this diet plan at all costs. Diet food can be bland, but this food is not the least bit tastey. I had success with Jenny Craig, and while I didn't enjoy every meal they had, the majority were terrific. The Bistro MD food plan is too expensive, the food is horrible, the weekly plans are set and cannot be customized and customer service refuses to stop shipment of food even tho' it had not been shipped.
so far so good. I like the food and haven't eaten anything that wasn't good to above average and i am a good cook so that is a positive
I just started today and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the food. I do wish there were more materials upon delivery on how to follow, but I did get an extensive email just before my delivery arrived. The food came quickly after I ordered. I did Jenny Craig and lost 11 lbs, but couldn't stomach the food after 3 mos. I'm so happy that this Bistro MD actually tastes delicious!! I'll place an update on my progress in a few weeks.
08/31/09: I ordered these meals about a year ago and they were not any good. I recently re-ordered and they have a new menu. I have only been on the plan for one week and lost 1.6 lbs so far with a 5 day plan (2 days off). The customer service is great and willing to work with your likes and dislikes. I was hoping to use this plan to lose the last 10 lbs and lower my cholesterol without meds. It will not be long term like for some other people. However, a long term plan will offer a variety of food and it is all good. I mean nothing will replace a pizza or chili fries, but for "diet" food it is good. Really good. And I am very picky. I have tried Nutrisystem - gag me. It is a little pricy but there is free shipping on the first order. It takes the guess work out of what I will eat everyday and I do not have to count calories or fat grams. It is loaded with protein. The portions are small but they are surprisingly filling. I can't believe I get so full compared to a meal of the same size from Lean Cuisine where I am still starving. I also purchased their snacks but sometimes I substitute a yogurt or fruit for a granola bar.
I have tried Bistro MD and every other diet around. If this is just another version of Bistro MD, I say no way...I am waiting for the release of Ruby's diet. Ourlife meals? Does anyone know how I can order them?
Does anyone know how the Biggest Loser Meal Plan compares with Fresh Diets Meal Plan. I used Fresh Diests for a little over a month. The food was excellent and I lost about 10 lbs. Only problem is the cost. So I figured I would would look for a less expensive alternative and am looking into the Biggest Loser plan.
I think it is much cheaper to purchase and prepare foods for myself. Especially if I have help as to which meals are best for my situation. I spend maybe $400 a month or less to feed a family of 3 that is much cheaper than what these programs offer. And we eat healthy. Chicken, fish, steak, veggies, etc.
Not sure what the heck to do here, it's 1/3 thumbs up, 1/3 thumbs down and 1/3 "never tried it but recommending something else".
Sheesh, I just want to lose weight, I am over 300 lbs and feel like crap daily. Not only did I see this on the Show, but my Dr. actually pointed me in this direction as well.
But with this total mixed bag of reviews, who can really decide? I can't.
I can't tell if the food is good, bad, decent or discusting? Customer service sucks and the food never gets delivered in time? What kind of business plan is this?
Ugh, as you can see, I am in total frustration and confusion.
No answer in sight...
i did not see any recipes at all i need help i thought you were there for that please e mail me with some so i can get started. people are doing so well i would like to also kathleen
I've only done this for 3 weeks but i have to admit, the prepared meals are really good, very tasty and much more fresh/real tasting than Jenny Craig food. However, I canceled the snacks because except for the bars, they're pretty nasty tasting and have all sorts of fake/unnatural chemicals in them.
It would also be nice to have some guidance for what calorie intake to have depending on your height, weight, age, and gender, rather than having to guess how to supplement these meals.
Of course, it's also a little pricey so I don't know how long I'll be able to keep doing it.
My husband started this diet two weeks ago. He has lost 20 pounds!!! He is doing minimal exercise at this point, but has done a few very long walks. He likes the food, of course, some things are better than others. No complaints here!
I haven't tried it yet but plan on it. I checked out that "Fresh Diet" someone on here mentioned but . . . HOLY COW!! It would be about $1400 a MONTH for their food! I DON'T THINK SO!!!
I'm going to go with the Biggest Loser meals and I'll let ya'll know how it works! It is much more reasonably priced and does appear to be pretty healthy.
This plan sounds great but is not available in Canada...does anyone know of anything similar that is available in Canada?
I lost more than 40 pounds in 2 months. Food tasted awesome and was very filling. No way could I have done it on my own
Heard about this while watching BL tonight so I wanted to check it out. For now I'm sticking with Medifast. Been on it for a year, have lost 55 pounds and have nothing negative to say. It's a great plan.
I have used BistroMD before & it doesn't compare to daily delivery. I am on a great service called The Fresh Diet. www.TheFreshDiet.com
Tried the meals and they were great! However, there is no flexibility with the delivery schedules. Allow me to explain; Meals are delivered at mid to end of the week. I travel weekly to another city and needed a healthy alternative to restaurant food. I requested meals to be delivered on Tuesdays to the city I travel to, customer service first said yes and then delivered my meals on Thursday instead. When I called about the delivery date, they said they could not guarantee Tuesday delivery unless I paid the overnight charge of $29.00 (which I was willing to do that). Great order placed on hold, because the meals were delivered on Thursday and I head back home on Fridays. Can't take the meals with me and stored them at the hotel where I normally stay. Called the following week to release the order for next week, I was told that the over night cost was not $29.99 it was $100.00. Customer Service Rep had to speak with a supervisor, who was gone at 430p when I called.
The idea of these companies is to provide healthy alternative foods and make it simple to make healthy choices. BistroMD is not there yet......
Heads up! In todays market with obesity on the rise and folks looking for quick, healthy choices it would be nice to have a company such as BistroMD that provides great meals, but delivers them as the customer needs them.
Customer Service training for the reps regarding products, pricing and delivery is desperately needed.
Such a shame, because I would have loved to continue the service, just too much uncertainty....
I love the biggest loser show, but I have no interest in the bistro md. I am a vegetarian so I have been using Nutrisystem which does have a vegetarian program. Love it!! However, I did learn about the body bugg from the show and ordered it, it's awesome! It tells you how many calories you are burning and makes you want to keep moving to burn as many calories as possible! I recommend it!
