Amy's Diet

by Melanie Caughey

"The popular and tasty Amy's frozen foods has added their "Amy's Diet Plan" to their website.

Several of the popular fancy diet programs (Jenny-Craig, NutriSystem, Medical-Weight-Loss) feature pre-packaged weight loss meals. Numerous people have reported success with such plans, while others complain they can not eat what they want and that the food is too expensive.

The Amy's frozen food diet plan has great flexibility, since you pick it out yourself in the frozen food section of your local grocery store. The Amy's Diet Plan has a two- week menu list, with shopping list and nutrition information, and includes possible substitutions. They also have Vegan and Gluten-Free versions of the Diet Plan at their website.

You can download it, print it, or load it to your smart phone for ease of use. The different Amy's frozen meals come in a wide variety of nutritious, tasty entrees; and the fixed portions ease you into a different approach to meals. Since the busy working person might already be purchasing frozen foods to save food prep time, it is an easy start into successful weight loss results with delicious food."

Thanks for the tip Melanie!  I’ve eaten Amy’s frozen foods, and I love them! Unfortunately they seem more like a snack than a meal. But – with this website, I may try to eat what they say and see if I can lose that 2 lbs per week. At this point, 2 lbs in 2 years seems like an improvement!

I think the meals are even relatively healthy - I don't have one in my freezer right now to check it out. They have organic meals, gluten-free meals, vegan meals - yep, this looks like something I can try for 2 weeks!

Amy’s website also gives great encouragement to exercise a little bit each day – even 10 minutes. Every day.
