About Diet Meal Delivery Service in Toronto

For dieters in Canada's largest city, getting diet food delivered to a home or workplace offers a convenient option for losing extra fat or maintaining a healthy weight. Both Licious Living and Nutrition in Motion offer daily diet food delivery in the Greater Toronto area.

History

Some diet meal delivery companies only follow a specific diet plan, like the Zone, South Beach or the Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Living guidelines. Some vendors may also include coaching by nutritionists or may sponsor athletic events to help you get in shape.

Function

Many diet delivery plans offer options for vegetarian, heart healthy or other dietary restrictions. Talk about these issues with the company representative to make sure the diet plan you pick best suits your needs. You can ask that foods you dislike be omitted, usually for an additional charge. Usually "healthy" diet plans offer more flexibility than more regimented diet plans, like the Zone.

Features

A sample meal plan on the Licious Living diet would be: a turkey bacon and egg-white wrap on a whole wheat tortilla for breakfast; a turkey and cheddar sandwich with greens for lunch; and maple-glazed salmon, couscous and vegetables for dinner. A snack could include hummus and vegetables.
A sample meal plan on Nutrition in Motion diet plan includes: a zucchini frittata for breakfast; a beef salad wrap for lunch; and grilled steak with sweet-potato fries for dinner. The snacks include vanilla yogurt and caramelized almonds. Dessert is a banana crumb muffin.

Considerations

For the Licious Living diet, you must order at least 10 days worth of food as a minimum. You can opt for the Zone Diet for $25 to $33 a day, or the Healthy Living Diet for $26 to $35 a day. Your food will be delivered daily, and you can choose between two or three meal plans. You may need to pay a delivery surcharge if you life in the Toronto suburbs which are farther from the city center.
The Nutrition in Motion diet plan costs about $34 to $36 a day if you live within the city. If you live in the Greater Toronto area suburbs, then you will pay between $37 to $39 a day. You can opt for either the 10- or 30-day plan. Nutrition in Motion also offers plans for vegetarians or for children at the same price. All meals will be delivered by 6 a.m. daily.

Benefits

By using diet delivery plans, customers can avoid fast food and full service restaurants, which offer many unhealthy options. Most consumers choose diet food delivery plans for the convenience, since they do not have the time or patience for meal preparation. With these diet delivery meals, they can just heat and eat. Although expensive, these diet plans are often a healthier option for weight-loss than surgery or unregulated diet pills.
