Questions women ask us

How fast will I lose weight?

On the steady pace most women lose about 2 kg (4 to 5 lb) a month. The first week is often faster because of water. Slow and steady is the pace you can keep.

Do I have to count calories forever?

No. Use the numbers for a few weeks to learn what a portion looks like. After that the plate method in the plan is usually enough.

Can I still eat bread, pasta and potatoes?

Yes. Carbs are part of every day in the plan. What matters is the total amount and what you eat with them.

Why the name Vita Nova?

Vita nova is Latin for a new life. In Serbian, vita also means slim and graceful, as in the old saying vita kao jela, slender as a fir tree. We liked that one name holds both.

Is this safe for me?

The calculator never goes below 1,200 calories and limits the deficit to 25%. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18 or have a medical condition, talk to your doctor first.
