I lost eight pounds last month!   Woo ho! What helped me lose the weight was the opportunity to review the Sensei Weight Loss Website. I was given a free month long trial to give them feedback on my thoughts about the site. I have to say, it was easy to use and if you have the willpower to lose the weight, Sensei can help.  Sensei advocates healthy balanced meals and exercise.  What is the most helpful are the menu plans that are e-mailed to you every week. You can set up the program to send them to your cell phone and computer e-mail. The plans are pretty simple and you can change them anytime if you get tired of one. They offer three basic meal plans, Mediterranean, Sense able and Sense able Carb Plan.  Your days are based around three meals and a snack, and you’re supposed to specify the time which you eat these on weekdays and at the weekend. On the website, you just click on “My Day” and there is the list for each meal, with recipes and tips. I signed up for the “budget Friendly Plan.” They will then pick foods that are affordable. You can see an example of my daily meal plan below.

Monday
8:00 AMBreakfast : Fruit smoothie
1.0 Each Yogurt (100 calorie portion) (100.0 Cals)
0.5 Cup Milk 1% low fat (52.0 Cals)
0.5 Cup Canned fruit in juice (77.0 Cals)
1.0 Tablespoon Nuts (51.0 Cals)
12:00 PMLunch : Frozen meal w salad
1.0 Each Frozen meal (260-300 calories, <11g fat) (280.0 Cals)
2.0 Cup Tossed vegetable salad w/o dressing (45.0 Cals)
1.0 Tablespoon Low fat/fat free salad dressing (15-25 cal/Tbsp) (26.0 Cals)
5:00 PMDinner : Pasta ‘n beans
0.5 Cup Beans, cooked or canned (110.0 Cals)
0.5 Cup Cooked pasta, rice or couscous (100.0 Cals)
2.0 Tablespoon Shredded reduced fat cheese (70-90cal/1oz=1/4c) (41.0 Cals)
3.0 Cup Salad greens (24.0 Cals)
2.0 Tablespoon Vinaigrette salad dressing (35-45 cal/Tbsp) (90.0 Cals)
1.0 Cup Fresh fruit, cut up (70.0 Cals)
8:00 PMSnack : Berries
1.5 Cup Frozen berries (120.0 Cals)

The other appealing aspect is the exercise plan. You set up what day and what type of exercise for the week and they will send you reminders. You can change the time length and type of exercise as you progress.

You can sign up for a seven day trial for free to see if it’s for you, and you don’t need to enter your credit card to do it. The site charges for monthly membership ($15/month online membership, $20/month “anywhere” membership.) I do think this is an affordable plan and  just like any other healthy weight loss plan,  Sensei would be a great resource if if you are serious about weight loss and getting healthy.  The messages to your phone are a cool bonus.

    Wow, this sounds like something that I might have to look into. Thanks for the review. It helps so much just knowing what a NORMAL person thinks of these different sites.

    Hey,
    I’m glad it worked for you, but for me it didn’t.
    This is the 2nd time I’m doing online diet and it is the same as the other one (ediets.com), poor menus and dumb messages.
    Hope it will work for you guys, as for me, I’m not paying these folks $12 a month for nothing.
