Celebrities often use diet food delivery services when trying to lose extra weight. For an average person, paying to have healthy food delivered to your home or workplace can be expensive. However, it can help you stay on track when dieting. Both Get Slim/Freshology diet plan or eDiets/Deliciously Yours meal plan offer delivery to the Cleveland, Ohio area. Alternatively, you can choose some of the nationally known diet food franchises, like Jenny Craig, Nutrisystem or Seattle Sutton's Healthy Eating as well.
History
Many diet delivery companies employ trained chefs, nutritionists, doctors and business people to create their menus. Depending on the vendor, some diet meal delivery companies only follow a specific diet plan, like the Zone or the American Heart Association guidelines. Other vendors may offer lower-calorie diet meals, but may offer special features like gourmet food choices to keep clients interested. Some plans may also include discounts on gyms or may include a fitness plan or equipment.
Function
Depending on the vendor, some diet delivery plans offer custom options for low-salt, low-carb, vegetarian or vegan diets. Many diet plans offer different calorie counts, or have special diet plans for couples, new moms or elderly people. Discuss any health issues you have with the company representative to make sure the diet plan you select suits your needs. Sometimes you can also ask for food you dislike to be deleted from your food delivery menus.

A sample meal plan on the Get Slim/Freshology diet would be whole wheat pancakes with fruit and turkey sausage for breakfast; a chicken Caesar salad for lunch; and steak with grilled broccoli and squash for dinner. The dessert would be a strawberry shortcake.

Benefits
Diet delivery plans eliminate the temptation for customers to order unhealthy meals at restaurants. Most patients choose diet food delivery plans for the convenience, since many people do not want to go through the trouble of shopping, preparing and cooking healthy meals at home.

If you have any chronic health issues like hypertension, diabetes or heart disease, consult a doctor before starting any diet or fitness program.
