Balance by bistroMD

Four months and going strong
I joined the program four months ago, which was about four months after my wife got started. She had averaged losing a couple pounds a month for four months. I saw her results and thought maybe it can work for me. I have averaged a weight loss of about a pound per week for my four months--double my wife, though I have an extra 100 pounds to work with! The food is substantial and high quality. I still cheat a lot, but healthy cheating, such as fruits, salads, and for the most part low-fat proteins. And I continue eating my three BistroMD meals per day. What a great program! Eventually, I shifted to Balance by BistroMD, which provides the opportunity of ordering a la carte, often at a discount. It's a lot more affordable, but starting with Bistro helped me learn the program. After a while, I felt like I didn't need the program snacks or supports. I could manage snacking on my own. Plus, I am the type of person who can eat the same thing over and over if I like it, though that is not required. I typically buy products on sale from Balance. There is always something on sale for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So I choose my winners, for a lot less money, and it keeps working. I told my doctor about it, and he was encouraged until he found out how much it cost. This is not a cut-rate program. However, this is an effective program. The effectiveness of the program is amazing. I have been tightening my belt about one additional notch per month. The success of BistroMD and Balance has been very nearly absurd to me since I wasn't really "working" that hard at my weight loss. But I have been seeing results and hearing compliments at work and at home. Good luck to you as well!
