Well, Lean Cuisine and Smart Ones are better for you than, say, Stouffers. Read the packages for calories, fat, etc. Personally, I really prefer Lean Cuisine. Much better taste and veggies seem more plentiful and fresh. Weight Watchers has good frozen food, too.

There is a lot of sodium in these so-called healthy frozen meals. A fresh salad or a low cal sub at Subway would actually be better. However, occasionally using a Lean Crusine, Smart Ones, or Healthy Choice meal for a change can't hurt.

i will tell you, i ate primarily lean cuisine, healthy choices for a good 2 months and lost 15 pounds, however, i ate fresh vegetables and fruits, salads along with those. . be careful about the salt content also in these meals, lean cuisine tends to have high sodium, this can affect you if u have high blood pressure, try to avoid as many preservatives as you can also.

Nutritionists warn that low calorie counts don’t always translate to sensible eating. A microwave dinner may only have 300 calories, but too many might come from fat.
You have to round out these meals with a salad, a glass of milk or some fruit,”

Yuck. Sorry, but have you tried to pronounce the ingredients in those things?
Does your body really need sodium lactate, sugar, sodium phosphate, lactic acid, ascorbic acid, corn syrup solids, carob bean gum, guar gum, xanthan gum...? Do you even know what these things are?
Also, they don't even use MEAT, they use "seasoned cooked beef product " which is some gross thing made up of beef, water, dextrose, soybean oil, modified cornstarch, potassium chloride, salt, potassium and sodium phosphates, caramel color, natural flavors.
Have a steak and some fresh salad witt salt & pepper if you want to be healty.

They are very good for retraining your appetite for portion control. They are low in fat, and they usually have plenty of vegetables. I don't think it would be good to eat them for a long time because of the high sodium content. Home-cooked meals with similar foods in them would be better in the long run. They are still a lot better than most convenience foods and they should be fine to use occasionally for a quick meal.

Both are very low in calories and the portions are pretty small. They'll definitely help you to lose weight if you only eat one portion during your meal time.
Both, I believe, contain no preservatives, so they should be healthy.

Yes as long as you exercise and otherwise eat good. (Veggies, etc.) You may want to take a vitamin as well.

not really, they contain way too much sodium which makes you to retain water.
its way better to eat fresh, unprocessed food.
