Question:
Have any of you subscribed to eDiets.com?
I was wondering if eDiets.com was a worth while program. It cost a few bucks and doesn't give you much in samples of the program. It seems cool from the testimonials, but I've been psyched up and disappointed by weightloss programs in the past (haven't we all). I'm really needing some nutritional direction at this point in the weightloss game. Any input would be greatly appreciated before I whip out the credit card. Thanks folks. -Kim open RNY 7/17/01 -152 — KimBo36 (posted on March 16, 2003)

Hi there. I subscribed to it about a year before I had my RNY surgery. It
seemed to be a very good program. You can tailor it to many different
aspects of your "eating" life. Ie...food preferences, any
dietary restrictions, convenience foods vs home cooking. My problem was
that it just wasn't enough to satisfy my hunger. (I could eat and eat and
eat back then.) If you like a program that tells you exactly what to eat
and when to eat it....this will work for you. It is very balanced and they
offer exercise along with it. Now, post-op, I'm pretty sure it would offer
too many carbs. You may have to tailor it around that. If you have any
specific questions, please e me.

I did it for awhile. I found it was great support wise but hey you can just
as good support here. As for setting dietary guidelines for you I don't
know about that. I did it for awhile and it just wasn't that great in my
opinion. The food choices were healthy and balanced but they just weren't
what i'd choose. The sample is really a good sample of what it is like
though and you can play around with it. It also may have improved it's been
a few years since I did it. However there are free places to get
nutritional advice and you can work more around your own likes and dislikes
or maybe Weight Watchers would be more flexible if you need a guideline not
to exceed. I don't think I could eat as much food as weight watchers allows
yet at 7 months post op.

I have been with eDiets since 2000...I like the support, but I don't follow
the "diet" because it has way too many carbs for me. If you
would like anymore information, please feel free to email me.
