"The Biggest Loser" on NBC has been one of the most popular weight-loss programs since it debuted in 2004. As a spin-off of the hit reality show that features contestants competing to see who can lose the most weight, "The Biggest Loser" has partnered with eDiets.com to provide a healthy meal plan delivered to your home in order to help facilitate weight loss.
How It Works
Similar to other home-delivered meal plans like Nutrisystem, The Biggest Loser Meal Plan features prepackaged and prepared meals delivered to your home on a weekly basis. These meals come refrigerated and most require reheating in the oven or microwave. The Biggest Loser Meal Plan offers two options: the five-day meal plan for $119.75 per week, which gives you 15 full meals plus five snacks; or the 7-day meal plan for $153.65, giving you 21 full meals and seven snacks. Each week, you can go online and select your meals for the week, or have a variety of favorites selected for you. The meals are then delivered to your door on the day of your choosing.
Nutritional Information
The nutritional information in The Biggest Loser meals varies according to the type of meal or snack. For example, the Texas-Style Chili Con Carne With Yellow Rice meal measures in at 274g, or around 9 oz., and contains 310 calories, 10g of fat, 50mg of cholesterol, 370mg of sodium, 33g of carbohydrates and 22g of protein. The Biggest Loser Meal Plan foods do not contain any added preservatives, according to BiggestLoserMealPlan.com.
Effects
The Biggest Loser Meal Plan claims to help people lose 1 to 2 pounds per week with its custom diet meals, although those numbers may vary due to the difference in each individual person’s body type. To help aid in weight loss, registered dietitians are available to meal plan subscribers to answer questions and also to help them make educated decisions about their diet in order to lose weight.
Benefits
Having a customized meal delivery program can help people trying to lose weight control portions. When making food at home, even food that’s low in calories and fat, it can be difficult to control portion sizes, leading to overeating and weight gain. The convenience of preparation of prepackaged meals may also appeal to dieters with hectic lifestyles.
Considerations
Meals arrive in a container with frozen gel packs to keep the meals refrigerator-cold, therefore you should put your meals in your refrigerator after opening the package to preserve freshness, and eat them within one week of opening the box. The amount you spend for groceries, take-out meals, fast food meals and snacks over a week's time may actually cost more than what you spend on the diet plan. People taking prescription medication should consult with their doctor before starting the Biggest Loser Meal Plan, according to BiggestLoserMealPlan.com.
