Dietlicious
Best for: Structured calorie-controlled weight loss plans with every meal supplied
Suits people who want a structured, calorie counted program rather than a few dinners: every meal and snack for the day is supplied and packed by day. Best value if you are in the eastern capitals and happy with frozen meals and a larger upfront order.
- Full day meal plans at set calorie levels (800, 800 keto, 1200, 1500) with breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks packed by day
- No contracts or subscription: order only when you want, with a $75 minimum
- Up to three meal swaps per plan, plus a Build Your Own Plan tool for full control over macros
- Registered NDIS and Home Care Package provider, with meals snap frozen for up to four months in the freezer
- Delivery limited to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and connected regional areas, not all of Australia
- Plans are delivered as a single upfront box, so a 7 day plan is a $269 or more outlay at checkout
- Delivery is charged on top of the food price and varies by postcode
- Meals are snap frozen rather than fresh, and no vegetarian 1200 calorie plan is offered
Workout Meals
Best for: High protein meals for training and muscle gain
Suits gym-goers and athletes who want dietitian-formulated meals with published macros and larger serves, and who are happy to run a weekly subscription to avoid the delivery fee. Less suitable if you are in WA or NT, or if you only want the odd one-off box.
- Full macro and calorie breakdown, plus ingredients and allergens, shown on every meal
- Genuinely high protein, with many mains between 32g and 54g per serve
- Free delivery on weekly or fortnightly subscriptions over $99, with skip or cancel at any time
- Air fryer compatible range and larger portion sizes for people training hard
- No delivery to WA or NT
- Flat delivery fee of about $15 on one-off orders, which lifts the effective cost of a small box
- Priced at the higher end for prepared meals at roughly $12.50 a meal a la carte
- Free shipping does not apply to the WM360 program
