Bistro MD Diet Delivery Review


bistro mdIn my years of dieting I have tried many types of approaches. In the beginning, I was not very knowledgeable in the area of health, so I just thought to starve myself. After taking time to read magazines, books, watch videos, and just talk to people about weight loss I learned I was making numerous mistakes. Once I educated myself on how to eat five to six meals a day every two to three hours apart, it all started to come together.

The problem that many people face is the amount of time needed to prepare, cook, and package their food for the next day. To make things a little more challenging, try accomplishing all that while married with children, working a job, or running business. Our spouses can try to help as much as possible, but in this generation both wife and husband have to rake in the bacon.

So I finally decided to try BistroMD, it is a weight loss company that sells gourmet style prepackaged health foods. I have been eating their food for the past few days and I am impressed with their frozen entrees. My favorite so far would have to be the breakfast meal called “Mixed Berry Crepe.” I have never even heard of a crepe until that early morning, and I must say was I fascinated with my new discovery. I have tried Jenny Craig so I have something to compare BistroMD with, and honestly their frozen products are definitely a step up.

The meals are delicious, considering that these are frozen fat scorching meals right out the box. The frozen foods can be put in the microwave three or four minutes for convenience, but if you have time available you can put it in the oven. The shipping was right on time and packaged neatly in a nice Styrofoam container. Although I noticed the outer cardboard packaging does not have the name of the meal, so therefore you need to pull the box out of the freezer to see what you have. You should be able to open the freezer, see the name on the box, and grab exactly what you want (just a suggestion I am sure they will make that adjustment soon).

As far as the snacks go, they are good but not the type snacks your average person would buy at his or her local grocery store. These are gourmet style snacks so that explains their uniqueness. I enjoyed the bottled protein shack, very quick and easy to use, just add eight ounces of water in the bottle shake it up and you’re done. The snack bars are very flavorful, but they can leave a dry after feeling in your mouth. No biggie, I just ate it with a glass of cold almond milk and it was very appetizing. I could feel the nutrients spreading right away all through my body; it was great after my tough workout.

DR. Phil calls them “The Best Home Meal Delivery Available,” if you are interested you can order online at their website www.BistroMD.com.

    This looks pretty cool. I know a few people that have tried at home diet delivery plans. They say most of them are pretty expensive. This one seems like it can compete with the types of food, but I wonder how the price compares to the big dogs like Jenny Craig.

    Anyway it looks like it is definitely worth a try for anyone looking to lose weight that doesn’t have time to make their own food. That Mixed Berry Crepe sounds delicious, I love crepes.

      I posted this in the wrong section, so sorry if your getting my reply so late, i did send it a while ago, and i have lost 30 pounds since this message.

      Hey Ken,

      Well it’s a fairly new at home food delivery service, but I guarantee they will be competing with the big dogs, as a matter of fact they already are. These are the same guys that cooked for “The Biggest Loser” TV series. By the way I just learned that the new packaging with the names of the food is already being printed.

      Thanks for reading Ken, Be Blessed

      I have tried every diet that you can think of includng Jenny Craig and Nutri system. Compared to Bistro MD I dont think they stand a chance. I have had several Bistro meals and I can truly say the quality of the food is much better. The food is as fresh as it tastes. The meat is always moist unlike other frozen foods that serve you a brick of meat and the the fresh veggies, herbs and spices add tons of flavor. I give two thumbs. I have no idea what the cost is but I’d like to find out. Anyone got the answer?

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Check out the link and see for yourself. The great thing about Bistro MD is that the have an excellent dietician support community. The food cost about the same as Jenny’s, but if you pay anything extra its worth it for the support you get in return. I was able to speak with my only personal nutritionist. Let me tell you Christy knows her stuff.

  4. VannyNo Gravatar says:

    I tried Jenny Craig and it does work, but some foods weren’t so great. If Bistro’s food taste better like you said then i think i’d like to try it.

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Bistro MD in my opinion is better, I was on Jenny for 2 months and I enjoy Bistro MD much more. Their food is unique and it doesn’t taste like diet food.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

      Thank you Erica, as I said to Josh in the comment ahead, “these guys have the best dietitian’s on board at your service. They can even specialize your meal plans based on your weight, body fat percentage and all.” If your goal is to maintain, gain, or lose weight.

    Thanks Frankie very insightful and helpful.

  12. DianaNo Gravatar says:

    Is it like really good tasting for or that diet good tasting food. What are the portions like?

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      It that food that’ll leave you asking, “Is this diet food?” The portions are perfect for maintain insulin levels which will bring fat loss and each meal or snack has a great amount of protein and carb to reduce sugar spikes in the body. If im hungry after a meal, i just eat veggies and drink water.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

  13. LisaNo Gravatar says:

    I really need to lose weight…I’m interested in looking at the full menu too.

  14. KristenNo Gravatar says:

    So does it work the same as nurtisystem, cuz that food was not tasty. I couldn’t make it through the first week.

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      It has the same concept as NutriSytem, but the food is different because there are different cooks. What i can tell you is these are the cooks from “The Biggest Loser,” TV show.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

      Frank C.

  15. TiffanyNo Gravatar says:

    I just want to maintain my weight because I’m already thin. Is this strictly for weight lost?

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      This is for overall health and will help you maintain a fast metabolism and reduce the process of it’s deceleration.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

  16. vivianeNo Gravatar says:

    Can we talk $$$$…is it affordable and if I stop eating there food will I gain all my weight back?

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Well if your used to buying fast food or going to restaurants for lunch everyday, then you’d be spending about the same amount of $$$. But instead of storing fat you’d be burning it. The part about keeping the weight off, it really depends on you. However, they do have a maintenance phase after you reach your goal. They will take you off of the food little by little and teach you how to make fat loss meals for yourself. So you never have to return back to where you came.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

      Frank C.

  17. IvisNo Gravatar says:

    Mixed Berry Crepe sounds yummy

  18. AaronNo Gravatar says:

    This sounds good I can’t cook so it sounds easy enough but I’m afraid of still being hungry because those packaged meals are always so small.

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Not to worry, in the first week you will have to adjust if your not used to eating 5 to 6 small meals a day. Actually you will feel satisfied all day, rather then starving and eating till your completely stuffed, which only make your insulin first drop low, then shoot high and cause fat to be stored.

      Thanx for reading, Be Blessed.

  19. EclipseNo Gravatar says:

    I have seen plenty of these food delivery things and they always have this actor or celebrity that lost all this weight!! But comon seriously?!?!?! Those people have so much time on their hands, they can workout when the want, and have personal training sessions. They have there own nutritionist and cooks. And they just make it their job to lose weight to get money. For the real world i might as well just get healthy choice food.

    • BlizNo Gravatar says:

      I don’t think that’s really true, i think your average guy or girl could do this.

      • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

        Sorry I meant to put this comment here, “Heck yea your average guy or girl can do this!! I am your average guy and im going to do this!! You can watch me if you want!! Here is a question for all my readers. Who wants to see me, an average guy do this?!”

  23. BlizNo Gravatar says:

    Good luck, by the way i like your writing.

  24. SaryNo Gravatar says:

    That was such an informative review. I;ve known lots of people who’ve tried different dietary programs like Jenny Craig and the Nutrisystem where the food wasn’t all that great. From the sounds of this one, the food sounds more appetizing. 🙂

    I have a question, is this just for people who’s trying to lose weight, or can someone like me, who’s just looking to change their eating habits and being more health cautious and healthy use this as well? What are the comparisons in price compared to other competitors such as Jenny Craig and NutriSystem?

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Definitely!! The food is a big upgrade. To answer your question about who Bistro MD will work best for. I have to say Bistro is best for everyone. They have specially trained dietitians that can set up the perfect plan for you and they are only a phone call away.

      I used Jenny Craig once before and their prices on food are basically the same. $130 will pay for 21 meals and 21 snacks that will last you one week. That averages out to $18 or $19 a day. Some pay that much for one meal at a restaurant and get fat from it.

      Thanx for reading Be Blessed,

      Frank C.

  25. PriscillaNo Gravatar says:

    Thanks for introducing us to a new plan. You know that in the Hair and Makeup industry all my clients are alway looking for a way to lose wieght or just maintain, so I can definitely share this with them. Most people say the same thing about these meal plans though, that they are super bland and have no flavor. So, if you can honestly say that they taste good, #1 I will have to try it, #2 I will have to share this plan with my clients.

    • Frank C.No Gravatar says:

      Hey Priscilla!! How are you?!?! How is business going for you?? Well I have to say I love the food, and the snacks I’ve begun to love too ha ha!

      Thanx for reading Be Blessed,

      • JessicaNo Gravatar says:

        I remember listening to the Steve Harvey show one morning. The topic was why famouse woman lose weight after having babies but middle class woman usualy dont. It’s real easy to lose weight when you have a lot of money and a lot of time. I would like to see how an ordinary man with a 9 to 5 job, a family and everyday responsibilities would do on this diet plan. Is this program something that anyone can see results from? Can’t wait to hear about your experience and to see if you lose any wieght.

  27. Frank C.No Gravatar says:

    Here is a question for all my readers. Who wants to see if an average guy like me can lose a minimum of 50 pounds in 6 months and keep it off by using a home food delivery service such as Bistro MD?! And of course I will workout as well. I am the perfect candidate for your average overweight guy, I have a wife (who is a full time student and has a full time job), two children and two businesses to run! But I believe with the support of Bistro MD I can reach the end off my weight loss journey.

    So tell me, who believes and who doesn’t?? Who wants to see if it can be done??

    Thanx for reading Be Blessed,

    Frank C.

  28. ChrisNo Gravatar says:

    I’d like to see it done.

  29. PeanutNo Gravatar says:

    I’m sure its possible, I mean there are people who have done it, you just gotta stick to it. But yes I would like to see it dona also, then maybe I’ll try it who knows…

  30. DemiNo Gravatar says:

    I always thought that stuff was fixed, I tried Jenny didn’t work for me, although i cheated a lot. Lets see what you can do..

  31. YessiNo Gravatar says:

    Go for it, it worked for me!!! It’s all about your commitment and how bad you want it.. Good luck

  32. MejiaNo Gravatar says:

    Oh please tell me this works for you! I am about to give up and ive been skeptical about trying the home food things. If it works for you im trying it.
