No cooking, no time spent figuring out calories and meal plans. Included in the charge is complete access to all on-line support tools. Now includes fresh-frozen food as well as packaged foods.

The price for a 28 day food order works out to about $11 per day for all meals.

Suitable if you: Are overwhelmed by your weight - or are more than 75 pounds overweight.
Not suitable if you: are only a little overweight.
