Project LeanNation Des Moines — Local services in West Des Moines

We just started with PLN and it’s honestly been amazing. We’ve tried other meal prep services in the area, and they were good for a time yet we got tired of the same things and never had as many options we liked.

This service has a lot more options without rice that makes it a better fit for our family as my partner doesn’t really like rice so that always limited his options. We also love that they’re frozen and the way they’re packaged. We keep them in the freezer and cook from frozen. 4 minutes and you’ve got a delicious meal! Other Servies offering frozen meals always tasted a little off. These taste fresh like it was just cooked and delivered. I’d look like a chef if I plated these up!! Haha

The protein shakes and other items they carry in the store are equally as great! As well as the staff. The two wonderful gals that were there when we went in to check the place out were 10/10 fabulous! We felt like we not only got set up with a great option but that we also put a plan in place to help us reach our goals based on our day to day.

If you’re considering options for meal prep services, I’d highly recommend checking out PLN in West Glen, West Des Moines/Des Moines area. You’ll be...

So thankful for Project Lean Nation!

After losing our 14-year-old son almost a year ago, it’s been an uphill battle to get back into routine. Between grief, hormones, and stress, I had gained about 20 lbs — which was tough for someone who’s spent the last 14 years dedicated to health and fitness and even lost 100 lbs myself.

My husband and I both run businesses, manage a busy home, and serve in our community — so meal prep just wasn’t happening. We knew we needed something simple, healthy, and consistent to help us avoid grabbing takeout or skipping meals.

That’s when we found Project Lean Nation, and honestly… it’s been a lifesaver. We order 15 Athletic meals each week, I cook them up, and we split them between the two of us. The meals are perfectly portioned, delicious, and packed with nutrients.

Staying consistent has paid off — I’m already down 7 lbs in just 3-4 weeks! 🙌 More than that, I feel stronger, clearer, and more like myself again.

Thank you, Project Lean Nation, for making healthy living feel doable again — even in the...

I recently had my 3rd baby, and I was in search of healthy easy meals. I was aware of other meal prep places in the area (I even worked part time at one in the past), but I needed a place with allergy friendly options. I’m breastfeeding a baby that is unable to have dairy, so I’m thrilled that PLN has several dairy free meal options. We’ve found several of them that we love. They taste great (I went to culinary school, so I can be a little critical of taste) and they are super filling. The price is a little bit of a stretch for our budget as we are a single income family, but it’s been so helpful for us to have these meals for lunch we are finding a way to make it work....
