Oprah's Weight Loss Plan
January 6, 2009 at 10:28 AM by Cafe Kim - Comments (9)
Did you watch Oprah yesterday?
Cafe Kristen mentioned in Healthy Living Buzz that Oprah was going to talk about getting back on the weight loss wagon, so I made sure not to miss it. One of Oprah's strategies for losing weight in 2009 is to stick to a weekly meal plan that focuses on small, healthy, frequent meals.
This type of healthy meal plan supposedly works to keep you satisfied throughout the day;eating small, frequent meals keeps you from being tempted to over-indulge at meal-times or snack throughout the day.
But Oprah's meal plan is really intense! Sunday alone requires five small meals—four of which consist of either salmon or chicken breast. This type of weight loss strategy definitely requires a lot of planning and organization—not to mention extra time in the grocery store and at the stove.
What do you think about Oprah's weight loss plan? Is it practical for the average mom?

as a single mom i do not have the money to keep up with the weekly meals.
Not in my practical opinion! Maybe, if I had a personal chef, I would reconsider.
Since she got the money than it may work for her.I still think excercise,and eating just more balanced is the way to go.
Not for me. If I had someone to prepare the meals and then remind me to eat them, that would be good. I never need to be reminded to snack on chips but something healthy.....you bet ya!
I agree with the above posters...it's a shame that it's so expensive to eat more healthy!
Definitely not practical. It's to time consuming and expensive. SAHM don't have time to prepare 5 little meals. Moms who work outside the home typically do not have the means (or time) to fix mini meals throughout the day.
I think if you were well organized and spent a little more time preparing this might be do-able. Practicle, NO WAY! If you could stand eating left overs this might work, but for people like myself who won't touch re-heated anything unless it is soup or stew this would not work for me AT ALL!
