The Big Freeze
By Tracy Olgeaty Gensler, M.S., R.D., Best Life nutritionist
Imagine walking through the door after a long day at work and finding a healthful, homemade dinner just waiting to be heated up. No, this isn't a dream, and no, you don't have to hire a personal chef to make it happen. All you have to do is plan ahead by making and freezing a few meals over the weekend (or whenever you have some extra time) so you'll have tasty, ready-to-serve dishes nearly all week long.

From the Community
"When I first started, I was rarely hungry. I was eating three meals and two snacks a day, which is more than I'd ever eaten before. Of course, I was eating healthier: I was enjoying whole grains, low-fat dairy and protein, fruits and vegetables everyday. Now I feel good about my lifestyle–food isn't the enemy anymore. I have more energy, I sleep better, I feel strong and my clothes fit. The meal plans are great. There's a lot of variety and they're easy to follow."
