eDiets Meal Delivery
Posted by Tel
As a follow on to the series of articles we are putting together on the weight loss diet meal delivery program provided by eDiets, we will take a closer look at the actual mechanics of the eDiets meal delivery process. This will give you a better idea of what is involved should you decide to sign up with them and get your own weight loss journey started in earnest.
The first thing you will notice about the meal delivery system used by eDiets is that it is designed to provide all you meals for a week at a time. You can choose whether you want to have meals for five days out of seven, effectively giving you weekend off if you like to go out and eat at restaurants or visit friends or family for get-togethers that invariably involve a meal. Or you can choose the full seven day meal plan that covers all seven days. Either plan provides you with four meals per day, which is seen as an optimum number of times to eat during the day so that you do not overdo it in any one meal and it spreads the eating out more evenly throughout the day.
eDiets Food
The food itself is set out in a breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack and evening meal with dessert. The quality of the meals is high because they are not the processed or freeze dried and water reconstituted meals that you may get from some other diet companies, but are actually freshly prepared by the company's own chefs as they receive your order. The meals you select for your personal plan are made to order by the company's own chefs in their USDA-inspected kitchen. Only the highest quality ingredients are used in their meals and there are no added preservatives.
The prepared meals are then packed in advanced "chill-fresh" packaging for optimum freshness. The meals are then shipped directly to your home address. When your meals are delivered to your home, all you need to do is store them in your refrigerator and as you require each meal, just heat it up, eat it up and enjoy it! It really is that simple.
eDiets Meal Quality
The variety of meals is very good with over 100 main meals to choose from in over 20 specific diet plans. That means there is a diet plan to suit most people's needs, whether it be for vegetarians, diabetics or any other special needs diet, as well as regular diet plans for men and women of all ages, tastes and needs. All meals and program menus are created, designed and approved by eDiets own staff of qualified expert dietitians.
While all main meals are free from preservatives, some of the pre-packaged snacks, pre-prepared items such as tortillas for instance and some sauces may contain small amounts of preservatives. The ingredient list is provided on all packaging so you can check. You can also check the ingredients on individual items before you order online. Also, all of eDiets meals are totally free of trans fats.
The meals should be stored right away in a refrigerator and will remain fresh for up to 10 days from receipt of your cooler. If you intend keep the meals for longer you may freeze them for as long as three months.
