April 2005 - Cafe Slim

Cafe Slim is an online weight loss service which offers personalised slimming plans. On sign-up, the user specifies which foods in each of the various food types (vegetables / fruits / dairy products / cereals etc) they would like to include in their diet.

The system then generates a daily meal plan for the user, based on only the foods that they have specified. This is a great way of dieting; it ensures that your body receives all of the nutrients that it requires, and if followed, will result in a gradual, but more importantly, healthy weight loss.

This method of weight loss is preferable in the long-term to "fad" diets, which starve the body of, for instance, carbohydrates. This sort of diet has questionable long-term health risks, and somebody using this form of diet will usually put all of the weight that they lose, back on after finishing the diet. Cafe Slim will also put together an optional exercise programme to complement your diet if so required.

The Cafe Slim site has a pleasant design, and although there are several pages of forms to fill in during the sign up process, these are incredibly simple, and necessary due to the personalised nature of the diet that they are generating for you.

The site also contains lots of useful information about dieting, success stories from members, a latest news section, and Frequently Asked Questions section.

All in all, a great site to have as Site of the Month in December, when most people are dreading the amount of weight they will put on over the Christmas season.
