Frequently Asked Questions about Online Diet Programs

How did NextAdvisor review these online diet programs?

We thoroughly researched all the diet programs in this category, actually signing up for each plan. In the case of the meal delivery plans, we tasted and rated the food. We then compared diet plan offerings, food variety, support and fitness options. Close attention was paid to whether each diet program had specialty offerings for diabetics, vegetarians and others with specific dietary considerations. We also looked at whether the company had online support and how robust it is. Did it offer food tracking, weight loss journals and exercise plans? Was each weight loss plan personalized? In addition, we read pertinent news, consumer opinions and third-party research reports.

After our initial evaluation, we continue to monitor the plans and update our reviews as situations change. We also monitor the providers' sites for any program changes or specials.

We only include providers on our site that we believe offer a good value proposition. If there is a provider you know of that is not on our site, you can be fairly certain we did not rate that provider highly enough to include in our comparison. If you think we are missing a quality provider or have any other suggestions or comments, please contact us and let us know.
