    I was just trying to figure out which frozen meals are best too. I usually get Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice Steamers because they have the most flavor and are low in cal / fat. But since everyone seems concerned about sodium, found this great list that shows you which are best and worst for sodium too: http://www.hellawella.com/100-popular-frozen-meals-ranked-by-sodium-content

    So totally agree with you. I had this conversation at work yesterday about veggie chips.....Hey I was eating a large bag of doritos with my sandwhich, so my changes are all right with me. Again this is a life style and i am learning to make better choices. I love to crunch so veggie chips it is, with a wedge of laughing cow cheese....uuuummmm heaven.
    and all you have to do is check in here, read about people, about their changes. you learn a lot about people from how the say stuff.

    and it's true, most people here were eating junk food and sweets and double portions. not a lot of people here got fat off eating healthy foods.

    and I never said everyone pushes people to eat clean, but you can't deny that when you go into a topic that includes store bought meals, a lot of people chime in that eating clean is best. it may be true, but my statement only said that some people cant go clean over night- making the point that to start out, I don't see why people have issues with microwavable meals if its still healthier then you were eating before.

    i tend to pick up healthy choice brand meals if i am buying a frozen meal. i always add a couple of cups of frozen veggies (usually spinach or broccoli) to it to both fill me up and pack in the nutrients.
