What are meals like at weight loss camp?

Meals and menus will vary across weight loss camps, and we—having never attended any other camp or retreat—cannot speak to the nutritional value, taste or variety of meals at those places. When searching for a program to attend, you will see that some places serve chef prepared meals in a community dining setting. Others may have cooking classes.

At Weight Crafters, we like to simplify nutrition for our clients.

Changing your lifestyle and eating a healthy diet does not have to mean eating plain chicken every day or cutting out your favorite food groups. In fact, many people who struggle with weight loss are actually under eating altogether or missing important macronutrients due to following popular "miracle" diets.

Though some people have special dietary needs, we serve the majority of our clients a balanced meal plan, made with simple but delicious ingredients. Many of our clients comment something along the lines of, "Hey, I could actually make this at home!" or "Wow, even my husband would like this!"

And that's the point. The purpose of our program is to help you see that you can enjoy healthy food, transform your body, and make simple—yet extremely effective—positive changes to your lifestyle.

Here are some things to expect:

• Lean proteins: Meals may include chicken, fish, tofu, or other sources of lean protein to help support muscle mass and satiety.
• Whole grains: Whole grains such as brown rice, quinoa, or whole grain pasta are included to provide fiber and complex carbohydrates.
• Vegetables: Meals often include a variety of colorful vegetables to provide nutrients, fiber, and to help keep calorie counts low.
• Healthy fats: Healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, or nuts help to support overall health and satiety.
• Limited processed foods and added sugars: We avoid processed foods and added sugars, which can be high in calories and low in nutrients.
