Has anybody tried these?

Our front office area was rife with boxes that said "FACTOR" on them.

So I investigated and signed up.

It might be too much food but the ads look good.

@LTT1.  I'd love to try them but just don't have the freezer space.  I bet they're kind of pricey too.

Did you taste any?  Please do a review when you do.

@LTT1   Yes, I love them.  My daughter and her husband started their subscriptions over a year ago (can't remember why ~ I think my SIL wanted to get heart healthy). They gifted subscriptions to me (I needed protein). Love!  Now my granddaughter & her husband use them. They are RN's and MD Resident and love the convenience of being able to throw them in their backpacks to eat anytime. Plus, they're delicious. I think you're going to enjoy them and yes, it is a lot of food so you'll get your money's worth. I've got my plan on hold right now to enjoy all the fresh produce available right now and making smoothies to cool down.

Theyd be a great gift for the person who has everything, everyone from busy career professionals to Seniors who have trouble shopping and cooking.

Yes, we tried them. They were definitely not diabetic friendly. The keto plan had so much fat, they made me nauseous. I switched to the lower calorie plan but they were too carbohydrate rich. The calories were also too high for me and I gained weight. My husband, though, enjoyed them. He can eat anything. But he lifts weights, jogs and wears the same 32 inch waist size as he did when I married him.😄

@Kachina624 : Wonderful ideas. I researched all the meal plans and my cardiologist recommended Meals for Mom.I have several health issues and need to avoid certain spices or ingredients. All the plans for me are expensive. I understand some are supposed to have healthier ingredients.

I looked at the nutrition information for Healthy Choice and Lean Cuisine and selected meals with the less calories, sodium etc. I know many posters will tell me this was not a good option. I eat a big salad with the meal. I have in two weeks have loss two pounds but a small improvement.

I would love a gift subscription for a meal plan.

@LTT1  Ditto what @Kachina624 says, please let us know what you think when you try them.

@Kachina624 

Just looked at their site, did you take a peek?  I'm impressed with the variety and they look really good.  They have a price enticement to get started, haven't checked to see how / when you can cancel but may be worth a look. 

They arrive fresh with an ice pack so I may wait till temps go down.  Also said the meals are fully cooked and can be eaten within seven days.  Reheat in micro or oven.  

Would love to hear what you and others think if you look further into the service.  I'll do some more research and report back too.

@rockygems123. It sounds like they're not frozen but are refrigerated.  I did glance at their website but couldn't get to pricing, which is really what I was interested in.  It may depend on the plan chosen.

@Kachina624 

That's what they say, refrigerated shipped with an ice pack.  Still mid to high 90's here so I'll wait.

Glancing at the site but will look at it more carefully later, a $7 / meal popped up and they look like big meals.  That's with the special of 50% off first order 20% off next month.

Will check further for the cancellation policy too.

@LTT1 , well thanks to you I just signed up for the 10 meal per week plan.  We never have time or energy to cook during the week, so I'm hoping this works.  My husband is so hungry by the time he leaves work, we usually end up ordering in.  This plan will be paid for with the cost of 2 nights of Grub Hub.  😀.

Too bad there wasn't a way for you to send an invitation from your new account...it would have given us both a $40 credit.  I do thank you for starting this thread.  It was just what I needed to alleviate the dinner time stress.  🩷
