For us sulit sya. Naka 1.2k cal ako and nabubusog ako.
| r/SoloLivingPH | 4/5 estimated
Me and my bf are three weeks na sa chef on a diet. For us sulit sya. Naka 1.2k cal ako and nabubusog ako. Wfh din ako kaya for me mas convenient and nakakatipid. Nadidisiplina ko self ko na wag na mag grab kasi naka meal plan na ako.
Naka balanced meal ako while si bf naka protein. Tho expect na puro chicken breast sa protein meal plan. But sa balanced meal, sulit na kasi ung 1.5kcal for 5 days is like 2.3k ata? Kasama na delfee then 1.2k cal nasa 1.9k lang.
I plan to stick with them til i hit my target weight.
In short: The author and their boyfriend find Chef on a Diet worthwhile, convenient, filling, and helpful for sticking to a meal plan.
Si COAD, nakaakumay ung pasta in olive oil. Pati ung breakfast n malaking jello in a tub.

I did smartmeals and chef on a diet. Mas mlaman and malasa sa smart meals. Si COAD, nakaakumay ung pasta in olive oil. Pati ung breakfast n malaking jello in a tub.
In short: The author found Chef on a Diet less flavorful than Smart Meals and grew tired of its olive-oil pasta and breakfast jelly.
may hits and misses pero it has greatly helped me a lot in staying within my calories and macros tracking.

i use chef on a diet this month for the first time and i think ill be renewing next month also. may hits and misses pero it has greatly helped me a lot in staying within my calories and macros tracking. very convenient and on time naman usually ang deliver. i dont wanna hassle myself with meal prepping and cooking and cleaning, etc. also when having food delivered, i usually go for fast food and mahal din naman inaabot, so at least i get to stay on track and have healthier choices.
if you can afford it naman try mo lang maybe 1 week lang muna ganun. try out different providers din para you can find one that works for you.
In short: The author says Chef on a Diet has some hits and misses but is convenient, usually on time, and helpful for tracking calories and macros.

Sabi mo wala ka ref so baka mapanis yung pang dinner?

Kay Chef on a Diet, if sulit paguusapan, I’ll say sulit siya lalo na if mahilig ka magorder/kumain sa labas- mas makakatipid ka
| r/SoloLivingPH | 4/5 estimated
Hello, I tried Hearty Grub and Chef on a Diet.
Taste wise, mas masarap ‘yung hearty grub pero hindi siya nakakabusog and also naka caldef ako and sometimes ‘yung food niya is masauce or laging pasta. Mas expensive rin siya kesa kay Chef on a Diet.
Kay Chef on a Diet, if sulit paguusapan, I’ll say sulit siya lalo na if mahilig ka magorder/kumain sa labas- mas makakatipid ka downside lang is minsan pareparehas lang yung menu so may tendency na magsawa ka hahahaha
pero overall, sobrang convenient niya lalo na if tamad ka magluto saka marami rin naman, minsan nga may natitira pa ako.
In short: They found Chef on a Diet convenient and cost-effective, though its repetitive menu sometimes made them tire of it.
I’ve been on Chef on a Diet since Feb pero 90-100g of protein lang sila per day and I’m thinking of switching.
| r/MealPrepPH | 2/5 estimated
Bago lang ba ‘to? I’ve been getting ads for them recently and I’m curious to try. I’ve been on Chef on a Diet since Feb pero 90-100g of protein lang sila per day and I’m thinking of switching.
In short: They have used Chef on a Diet since February but are considering switching because its protein provision is too low for them.
Nag chef on a diet din ako last year then nag stop na ako kasi paulit ulit lang ung meals.
| r/MealPrepPH | 3/5 estimated
Yes mukhang bago lang, kaya nga di ako makapaniwala na 139 per meal eh. Nag chef on a diet din ako last year then nag stop na ako kasi paulit ulit lang ung meals. But favorite ko ung halo halo overnight oats nila, the best yun di ko makalimutan
In short: They stopped using Chef on a Diet because meals became repetitive, though they loved its halo-halo overnight oats.
Cheaper option but hindi tinipid and masasarap ang foods nila to the point na minsan like super bitin kasi masarap urgh four meals in one day, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner

You may try chef on a diet in instagram. Cheaper option but hindi tinipid and masasarap ang foods nila to the point na minsan like super bitin kasi masarap urgh four meals in one day, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner
In short: They praise Chef on a Diet as affordable and delicious, though the meals can leave them wanting more.
Tho may times din na smaller portions, like rice tapos 2 small lumpia lang haha. Pero mostly ok naman.
| r/fitnessph | 4/5 estimated
Chef on a diet for me. Natry ko din smartmeals. Halos same price lang sila. Tho may times din na smaller portions, like rice tapos 2 small lumpia lang haha. Pero mostly ok naman. Ito lunch and dinner ko kahapon (ginagawa kong omad yung meals haha don't judge). Breakfast nito ham sandwich. Try mo siguro one week if magustuhan mo. Also minsan di ko bet snacks nila na mga pastries na parang binili lang sa tabi2 haha.
In short: The author generally likes the meals, though portions are sometimes small and they sometimes dislike the pastries.
anyone here tried Chef on a Diet PH? we recently subscribed to their 5-day meal plan — 1200 calories per day for ₱1,400, plus delivery fee per person. so far, okay naman. gusto ko lang talaga ma-track yung kinakain ko without having to think about what to cook or order. since I’m on night shift, wala na rin akong time mag-prep. any recos for other meal plans providers around pasig city?
In short: They recently subscribed to Chef on a Diet's five-day plan and say it has been okay so far.

Chef on a Diet (experienced a spoiled meal from them)
| r/PHitness | 2/5 estimated
Please help: I am currently exploring more meal plan providers for my weekly rotation. My criteria: Around 2K~3K cost for 4 days x 3 meals (for 1800~2000 kcal), good-tasting meals, and a variety of dishes to offer. Most importantly, they have an online shop that accepts payment via card. Currently my top 2 meal plan providers are: The Six Pack Chef - In terms of flavor, I think their meals are the best from all the meal plan providers I tried. Variety-wise okay naman but merong times may magkalasa lang na meal from 4-5 days ago kahit na different dish talaga siya (pero tolerable naman). Dear Diet - In terms of variety, I think sila naman ang winner. But siguro in 1 out of 6 days there's a dish na di ko trip (hindi naman sa tasteless, more on preference-wise lang, like how others dislike cilantro). I am currently looking for two more alternatives para alternating sila per week. For some reason kasi mas mabilis ako maumay sa paulit ulit na pagkain everytime I'm consitent with my fitness journey. Please bear with me, and maraming salamat! PS. I have tried these meal plan providers too, pero they did not pass the vibe check: Smart Meals (madalas bland), Chef on a Diet (experienced a spoiled meal from them), Hearty Grub (mas expensive konti, and bank transfer lang payments iirc). Also meal prep on my own is out of the question at the moment due to some personal reasons, kaya I'm willing to spend on meal plan providers in the meantime. UPDATE (1 month later): Since then, I tried 3 other meal plan providers that accepts credit card payment (Daily's Diet, Pickle and Yummy Diet), but personally they are all a hit or miss for me. Still willing to give them another chance if I'd hear another good feedback here (baka timing lang di ko trip yung meal plan for the week). Ranking the meal plan providers that accepts credit card payment: Rankings Price Taste Variety Notes 1. The Six Pack Chef 💲💲💲 ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ No fruit or snacks included 2. Dear Diet 💲💲 ⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ Some of their dishes are not compatible with my palate (eg. cilantro, cinnamon) 3. Pickle / Daily's (tied) 💲💲 ⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ Similar reason to #2 but with more misses than hits 4. Yummy Diet / Chef on a Diet (tied) 💲 ⭐ ⭐⭐ Mostly rice-based, dishes are passable but some are unseasoned-tasting Legend for reference: Pricing (3 meals per day for 4 days) Rating 💲💲💲 → ~PHP 4K ⭐⭐⭐ → Great (eg. for taste, think restaurant-level appetizing) 💲💲→ ~PHP 3K ⭐⭐→ Good 💲→ ~PHP 2K ⭐→ Passable (eg. for taste, still appetizing enough if you are hungry)
In short: The author experienced a spoiled meal and later rated Chef on a Diet's food as passable, sometimes unseasoned and mostly rice-based.

You might want to consider dietmeals.ph on insta gusto ko lagi yung foods nila hehe
| r/SoloLivingPH | 5/5 estimated
For me yes. Sa mahal ng pagkain sa labas sobrang konti lang ng difference sa babayaran mong meal plan plus healthy ka pa. Kung may ref lang ako now, hindi ko sana hininto yung sakin. You might want to consider dietmeals.ph on insta gusto ko lagi yung foods nila hehe
In short: The author recommends Diet Meals and says they always like its food.
