Hello Myfitnesspal,

I have been on Lean Cuisines for a few months now. They are not very filling at first so I have had several. I am now to the point though where no matter how many I eat I keep gaining weight. Is Lean Cuisine doesn't work? I am up to at least ten a day and still keep gaining weight.

With love,
Burt

    I hope so. Questions without answers are too many.

    Are you eating the box? That's where the fiber is, so it will become more filling, and you can eat less of them at one sitting.

    With affection, Cindy

    There are no bad Lean Cuisines. Only bad Lean Cuisine choices. :wink:

    Bacon is all you need to lose weight. Everything else is useless.

    Ten times 360 equals sodium ^ sodium and calories!

    Just say no to boxed processed food - so much healthier to make something using fresh ingredients.

    You're clearly in starvation mode. Eat more.

    She's drinking- maybe ignore that advice. I'm sober, The best foods come in square cardboard boxes, frozen solid.

    It's because they're full of negative calorie foods. You're going into starvation mode. You should eat at least 5 more a day.

    Only 5? I'd say you need at least double the dosage...
