Meal delivery services promise convenience, but do they really make healthy eating and weight management a breeze—or is that just wishful thinking? When I first started this journey, I was totally sold on what I call the “Oprah effect”: the idea that if I had a personal chef prepping every meal, I'd always stay on track and be perfect.
