Developed by American Dietetic Association national media spokesperson and award-winning registered dietitian Manuel Villacorta, Eating Free is based on the latest scientific information that allows people to eat more, exercise less, and still lose weight.  Over the last six years, Eating Free has helped thousands of clients in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Japan, Israel, and Switzerland. 

“As opposed to fad diets that strictly limit fats or carbs, Eating Free encourages people to eat items from all food groups—even cheeseburgers, desserts, and alcohol—but in proper portion sizes and in combinations that actually fuel weight loss,” said Villacorta. 

The beauty of Eating Free is its simplicity:  Using your desktop computer, laptop, handheld device, or Eating Free’s iPhone app (available at no charge online at the iTunes Store), you begin by completing a simple online questionnaire that generates a customized weekly (as opposed to daily) nutrition plan.  Each day, you record your food consumption online using a simple series of drop-down menus; Eating Free guides you to make the right decisions for your meals and—if you overeat—auto-corrects your plan to ensure that you stay on track with weight
