DietWiz: Weekly Meal Planner

This app is by far the easiest menu planning method to help keep me on track. As a mother of two who works full time I find planning to be the hardest part of sticking with a healthy lifestyle. The only things that would make this better for me is to have an option to increase recipe servings that would automatically update the increased items on the shopping list. This way I would be able to decide which meals to make for the whole family, which ones to make more of so I have leftovers, and which ones I only need one serving of, without having to redo my shopping list. I love the “challenges” feature, it really motivates me!!

**Update Thank you for your valuable feedback! Simple meals have the full description directly in the meal card. When you click on the image of the meal you will get the complete meal instructions. Meals that require more direction, have a detailed recipe that can be accessed by clicking the arrow on the top right-hand side of the meal card. Hope that helps! We are working very hard to create a valuable tool to help people lead a happier and healthier life. It is extremely important to us that our users should be satisfied with the product. For additional assistance, feel free to share your feedback directly with our support team, by tapping on the "contact us" option in the app. We hope you continue to enjoy our app and discover all the great weight loss features! To your success! The DietWiz Team" The entire program has a game like feel, which is good, but it is not easy to get around after the initial information entry and menu choices, a short how to/map would be helpful. Also, there is no link or easily found button for the recipes at all, I looked everywhere, I am not sure if recipes are included, which I should have been told or shown this upfront, this is should be one of the most important areas. The Grocery list function is very nice! I would however like the option to choose more dates for grocery shopping than just the next 7 day window. Lastly and most important, please make the annoying sidebar optional. It is always in the way.

I purchased an started swiping left and right to pick out my first weeks menu, because this looked like an awesome app! I carefully reviewed each suggested recipe. My “diet” I picked was gluten free paleo. Why then did a recipe get suggested that had WHEAT BREAD? Also, one recipe had “cooking instructions” with ingredients listed that did not match the “ingredients list”. One recipe was completely missing cooking instructions. One had missing portion sizes - especially important for a seared ahi tuna steak if you are trying to keep track of calories? This was all before I got halfway through selecting recipes for the week. Lost complete faith in this app! Also - I LOVE to cook - I DO! But the complexity (while the recipes look/sound delicious) of the recipes are too much for the average person for every day of the week for lunch and dinner (gave up before making it to the breakfast recipes - so cannot comment on those). I don’t have time for this and don’t have money for a personal chef - real life struggles!!! I hope it works better for others (maybe your diet plan dealt you better recipes??), as the format has potential!

I am a woman that normally works out and eats a balanced mean but recently (now over age of 40) that’s just enough anymore. I researched apps and didn’t want to spend money on anything like joining a weight loss program. It just needed help with which way I should go to get to a comfortable weight for me. Dietwiz it’s a great app when trying to start a new diet. I am trying the keto diet for 1st time. The cool thing is the app allows you to pick the food you like and they email a grocery list and meal plan as part of the free ( there is other options to buy if you deem it is financially affordable for you) portion of the app. No complaints here- I will repost and let others know what if things go awry but for first time user - I recommend this app

I do all my prep work one day a week and this app makes it harder. In order to print the recipes you have to do screen shots and print them which is time consuming. Plus, the recipes are for one serving so if have a family you need to make the necessary changes. It is just more time consuming. The recipes are simple, easy and good if you add spices. I found the customer service to be difficult by not responding. I did not want this app but after reviewing it I noticed a charge on my card and could not get a response from customer service. Because I paid for $45 I decided to use it but then the app wasn’t working. They did fix it but they are just out to make a buck. They only respond to certain emails and they are not timely.
