What I Love About MommySlim


I was provided a MommySlim Premium 4-week Diet Kit and compensation in exchange for this post.聽Regardless, all opinions are聽entirely my own.

4 weeks ago I started the MommySlim Premium 4-week diet plan. As I mentioned in my original post here, my hope was to really start taking better care of myself. Obviously losing weight was an added bonus, but I really just wanted to focus on me more and make sure I was really getting the nutrients and food I needed to sustain the energy I needed as a mom.

Before MommySlim I was terrible at making time for eating, this meant that I would just snack when I got hungry or pick at my kid’s plates at lunch. I am sure I was getting plenty of calories, just not in the right way and not of the right kind. I am happy to say that for 4 weeks I have been so much better about sitting down and eating. Here are the things I have loved most about the program:

Flexibility– While MommySlim has laid out the program for you here, but you are free to choose from a selection of meals/snacks each day. There are enough choices to give you some variety, but the best is dinner is up to you. I really learned to love mixing up my proteins and veggies each night to prepare something yummy for dinner. I also loved being able to still have a little starch in my diet because I am a carb girl at heart.

That means they are easy to throw in your purse while you are out and about, take with you for lunch at work, or even pack up and take with you if you are headed out of town! It does’t get much easier than that!

Tasty– I have always been really nervous about trying a plan like this because of what the food might taste like. Everything that MommySlim sent my way was pretty good. Of course I prefer some of the foods to others, that is only natural, but I really liked it! I love the dessert cookies! After about 2 weeks I got a little burned out on the meal replacement shakes but then I just started adding my fruit servings to them with some ice! Smoothies are so easy to whip up fast!

Overall my MommySlim experience was a success. I am finally feeling on top of my eating and am getting much better at making time for myself to fuel my body. I lost 5-6 pounds this month, which is great, but what is even better is how I feel. I have the energy I need to run around after my kids all day. My clothes fit better and I just feel better about life!

  1. I’ve never heard of this product, and I love that no refrigeration is needed. I’m going to look into it. Thanks for sharing!

  2. I’ve tried other meal plans that tasted awful. If this really does taste like good food then it’s a plan I could use.

    1. Yes! And the best part is you get to mix in fresh fruits and veggies and protein so you still are eating your regular favorites too!

  3. I love this. It is nice that they have a focus on moms. It is really hard sometimes as a mother of 2 for me to diet. I think I am going to look more into this and maybe it will work for me.

    1. I totally agree! I’m pregnant with my 5th but hope to try MommySlim myself post-partum because it’s always so hard to lose the weight when your munching on goldfish or whatever your feeding the kids!

  4. While I love the idea of having a full plan you don’t have to think about, I try not to eat packaged things and stick to fresh as much as possible. Having said that, I could see doing this for a week or two just for the convenience.

    1. You could stretch out a week or two week plan over a month and add in your fresh meals when you are able while still watching calories and nutrients. That’d be a great idea!

  5. Mommy Slim sounds like a great healthy way to lose weight. I love how easy it is to prepare the meals.

  6. Mommy Slim sounds like a great healthy way to lose weight. I like that the food does not taste like cardboard,as many meal plans do. Although at age 54, I am well past the age this plan caters to, I think this would be a good plan for me. Thanks for sharing!

    1. I think it works for all ages! It is flexible but structured enough that it is easy to understand and control!

  7. I have never heard of Mommy Slim but after going to their site the food looks great and looks like a plan that I could stick with.

  8. Oh I too….so many times skip meals and just snack which I know is not healthy! I have not heard of Mommyslim before, but it really sounds like a great program! I will have to look into it!

  9. I am like that right now….never find enough time to feed myself. I like hearing that these are tasty and premade. I have no time to make myself a healthy meal from scratch most of the time. My fav part though is seeing they have “yummy” treats like the cookie and chips you pictured.

    1. It is so hard to make time for us! The treats help though, this plan is so easy to follow!

  10. Never heard of this but it looks interesting I will be doing some research on it.

  11. This is the first I’ve heard of this program.
    It would make losing weight easier – less fuss with what foods to eat.

  12. those are great reasons! i’m a full type working mom too with two kids so i need something like this strictly for time restraints!

  13. even without considering weight loss, great,convenient, healthy meals just make life easier.

  14. I don’t really need to lose weight, but this is a great product to keep in mind if I ever have baby weight to get rid of.

  15. Congrats on your weight loss!Those look really good.I know I don’t always eat right either.

  16. Well, you had be at CONVENIENCE. Not only do we have a revolving door of sports and school kids, adult child with us for now, crazy hubby work schedule, but I cant eat a lot of the same foods they do. High carbs dont work for me. And seriously, a mom with chronic illness…the last thing I CAN do or want to do is slave in the kitchen to wear me out to much to do the IMPORTANT things like see the kids events and just rest up for better health. I always said life would be so easy for me. I don’t care about having the perfect thing I am hungry for always…I eat to live, not live to eat…so anything fast and healthy would be so great!

  17. these would be so convenient for those days ( a couple a week) that i dont have time or motivation to pack a healthy lunch. it would help me avoid the “snack cabinet”

  18. This looks like a great program to manage eating habits and weight control. The mommy slim shakes look good.

  19. I like how this product is tailored to moms. The fact that each component is prepackaged is also helpful for busy moms.

  20. I love the idea of having a few weeks or a month where a program takes the guesswork out of what to eat to be healthy! 馃檪

  21. This system looks like it would help take a lot of the guess work out of your diet. I will be doing more research on this for sure. Thanks for the post.

    1. That is seriously a great idea! They have a program geared for both nursing and non-nursing moms and it’s not just for the postpartum period!

  22. I’ve never heard of them but it’s a great idea. I’d be interested to see if the food is any better tasting than companies like nutrisystem

  23. I’ve never heard of this but I’m curious now. Having things preportioned can make a huge difference for some people!

  24. Prepackaged meals are great for weight loss, but sometimes they don’t taste the best. These look delicious!

  25. How have I never heard of this before? Sounds pretty cool. I will have to check it out. Thanks so much

  26. That is great for your weight loss. Congrats! Thanks for the honest review. It is great to hear first hand how people feel about meal plans.

  27. I love that this plan includes a multivitamin, what a great concept. Eating simple on the go is also important!

    1. The multivitamin is one of my favorite components. When you cut back on calories it can be easy to forget about what else you might be cutting back on!

  28. I love prepacked meals for weight loss. It eliminates the need to prepare foods and weigh and measure portions. MommySlim looks delicious. I might give it a shot.

    1. I totally agree! I’ve tried weighing foods for potion sizes before and it took so much time and effort to figure out meals.
