Because I know no discipline when it comes to food, I've decided to replace my usual lunches and dinners with Lean Cuisine meals (because, according to the labels, they're MUCH healthier than my usual choices and because they taste darn good!).
I'm hoping that this will make me more mindful of portion sizes and ingredient choices when I come off my cooking hiatus. I was delighted that my first Lean Cuisine lunch (roasted turkey with apples and cornbread dressing... mmmmm....) tasted great, but incredibly frustrated that I was still hungry after I finished. Now I make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day and with my meals, and the meals leave me satisfied.
Has anyone else gone on a kind of "pre-packaged meal" plan? What were the results? Were you able to translate these kinds of meals into your cooking?

I have found that with my LC meals, if I add 1 cup of green salad (lettuce, carrots, or veggies) to my meal, I'm usually full and satisfied.
