lost the weight

I started really dieting and excersing after the first of the year.  This was really due to one of my HS friends dying from a heart attack..I am 50 yrs old and thought that could happen to me.  I was going to try nutrisystems but thought the cost was way too high.  Living alone, it was difficult to eat right, so my daughter turned me on to healthy choice.   Well, when I started back in January, I was over 220 pounds..being 5'8, I was quite large....I am happy to say, that through exercise (cardio of at least 30 min a day) and eating the healthy choice dinners and snacks, I am down to 189 pounds.  I used to feel myself wheezing at night, no more.. I am just so grateful for you for your product!

Do you use HC products on all your meals? What is your average monthly cost?
I just ordered Nutrisystem so I can get used to the portion size and I bumped into Cafe Steamers from Health Choice while I was buying some fruits and vegetables to complement the Nutrisystem diet. I tried one for dinner an was happy with taste and portion size. I paid $260.00 for 5 weeks of food with Nutrisystem but I believe I'll be paying less if I go with HC products.

BTW, congratulations on your weight loss and keep us posted.

Congratulations on your weight loss!!!!!  My husband and I have been eating Healthy Choice meals for over a year.  My husband has lost 65 pounds and I have lost 108.  Our weight loss journey with Healthy Choice started because my husband had a heart attack.  His heart attack has turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to the both of us.
