Unbelievably
Delicious Meals
The
key to successful weight loss is to avoid
deprivation. That's why we make sure that
our meals taste just as good as and, in most
cases, better than anything you are already
eating. We have four delicious weekly menus
that repeat themselves in a four week cycle
(1, 2,
3, 4)
. You'll receive a different set of weekly
meals for a month. After that period, the
cycles repeat themselves.
|
If
there is a particular meal in a particular cycle
that you don't desire, you may substitute other
items from that pickup cycle, or you may select from
the list of items that are always
available.
Our
meals come in two different calorie levels; 1200 and
1600. The food is the same except that the portions
are proportionate to the calorie level. The food is
divided into 2 weekly pickups. Tuesday's pickup
includes the food for Tuesday's dinner through
Friday's lunch and Friday's pickup includes Friday's
dinner through Tuesday's lunch. There is a
Vegetarian Menu that follows the same rules above.
There are other items that may be purchased
"A-la-Carte". They include, desserts,
snacks and the Mirkin Meals.
Our
meals are affordably priced.
When you take into consideration the time for
shopping, cost of food, preparation time and
discarded leftovers, you will quickly realize that
our meals are more economical than fast food, and a
lot healthier.

The holiday season can bring many food challenges when it comes to sticking with your healthy eating regime. Follow these holiday tips to avoid any unwanted weight gain this holiday season.
Healthy Holiday Eating Tips:
1. Plan ahead
- Identify parties or activities that may challenging
- Brainstorm to develop strategies for potential “food challenging situations.”
- Put some calories “in the bank” and make a plan of what you'll have at the party
2. Avoid overeating
- Try not to arrive “starving.” In general, people tend to eat more when overly hungry. Consider a soup or hot drink before you arrive.
- Get enough sleep. Studies show we eat more when we are tired.
- Bring a dish you feel comfortable eating.
- Fill up on fewer calorie foods. Consider covering your plate with veggies, fruit, lean meats, poultry, fish, and whole grains.
- Avoid foods you think may be problematic for you to choose alternative substitutes.
3. Focus on “eating awareness” techniques
- Try to be fully present while you are eating-“savor the flavor” of your favorite food.
- “Eat the best, save the rest.” Review your options before you get started and make sure to include your favorite foods: pass on those you care least about or can have anytime.
- Think about positioning yourself away from the food; “out of sight out of mind” might work to your advantage!
4. The alcohol factor
- Be aware that alcohol adds empty calories, decreases your resolve and increases your appetite.
- If you plan to drink, allocate the number and budget your calories accordingly.
5. Keep on moving!
- Exercise is a helpful tool to balance calories and relieve stress.
- Consider a walk after dinner.
6. Maintenance is success
- Trying to lose during the holidays may be setting you up to fail.
Remember the holiday season comes once a year; do your best.
Happy Holidays! |
