200 Calorie Meals here and now!

I sampled a few of 200 Calorie Meals' offerings the other night for dinner. As its name suggests, 200 Calorie Meals is a food delivery service which specializes in tasty low fat and low calorie dishes. Their offerings help you lose weight without feeling deprived. :)

200 Calorie MealsSince my ultimate goal this 2012 is to lose weight, I decided to roadtest a few meals for myself. It was delivered at around 6:30pm, which was the promised time. It was dinner.

200 Calorie MealsI unpacked three meals from the big brown paper bag. They were cold because you can choose to store them in your refrigerator for future consumption or microwave for about a minute to eat right away.

I was impressed by the sturdy plastic containers they used. They're microwaveable too, just remove the covers.

Chicken Stir Fry from 200 Calorie MealsI had Chicken Stir Fry (P155, pictured above). Brown rice, boneless chicken pieces, and julienned carrots are cooked in a light, savory sauce. I liked this dish best among the three. The serving is small, just enough to tide you over your next meal since it's suggested that you eat five small meals a day if you're trying to lose weight.

Napolitana frim 200 Calorie MealsI also ordered Napolitana (P150, pictured above). It's spaghetti with a light, tomato-based sauce that's flavored with garlic and parsley. This one fills you up more than the Chicken Stir Fry since the pasta noodles are heavy. I only ate a few mouthfuls and stored the rest for the next day since I already had Chicken Stir Fry.

Vegetarian Casserole at 200 Calorie MealsThere was also Vegetarian Casserole (P150, pictured above). It's vegetable broth with cauliflowers, carrots, baby potatoes, celery bits, and straw mushrooms. The soup is very clean-tasting and it was amazingly oil-free. I liked this dish except for the cauliflowers because I really don't eat cauliflowers.

Next time I'll order their Meal-in-itself offering, the Tomatoes with Creamed Tinapa and Peanuts and Arugula Salad. It wasn't available earlier this week, but I'd really like to try it because it sounds so yummy based on the website description.

Log on to http://200caloriemeals.com.ph for orders, inquiries, and more information. They even have a Calorie Calculator on the site to help you compute just how many calories you should be eating.

Losing weight is not about deprivation, it's about making healthy choices and eating in moderation. :)

You can also find these meals at Beyond Yoga in Il Terrazo, Quezon City.
