Overview
Slim and Trim is a weight loss system that focuses solely on nutrition—while exercise may be expected of class members it is not required. Rather this plan is designed to teach dieters how to eat well without completely depriving themselves of nutrition. Through swapping recipes, learning about the potential pitfalls of fat and sugar, and creating meals with typical food, students of the Slim and Trim method are supposed to reach an ideal weight at a pace that is both steady and safe.
Program at a Glance
Classes offered by Slim and Trim focus on helping clients learn the basics of healthy nutrition and balanced eating.
Program in Focus
Since Slim and Trim tries to avoid restriction, students are allowed to eat certain foods in unlimited amounts—these foods are not listed upfront and are likely discussed in classes. And while fat and sugar are frowned on, this is not a fat or sugar free plan. Many of the recipes posted on the Slim and Trim site are made with chicken, fish, and low-fat ingredients. Each week the official site features a new recipe for members to try. The information on the Slim and Trim site is limited, providing only a brief overview of the program and contact information.
