When
West Harrison
resident Monica Lynn
was visiting a
Friend on The Zone
Diet, she got to
thinking. “I saw
what she was eating
and wasn’t
impressed,” says the
32-year-old. “I
thought I could do
it better.”
She thinks she has,
thanks to her
recently launched
weight management
company—5 squares.
How does it work?
For six weeks, 5
squares delivers
five healthy, low
cal, pre-cooked
meals to customers’
doorsteps once a day
(Monday-Friday)——at
$40 a day. “I lost
13 pounds on the
plan,” Lynn says. “I
went from a size 10
to a 6.”
The company’s meals
are preservative-,
additive-, wheat-,
dairy- and
sugar-free.
On staff are two
health consultants— pulmonary
cardiologist Dr.
Juan Espindola and
nutritionist Mindy
Weil—plus eight

full-time
employees, including
Mario Bladimirsquy, who
serves as chef (the
meals are cooked in a
commercial kitchen space
in White Plains).
So what do you get for
$40 a day (for non-math
majors, that adds up to
$1,200 for six weeks)?
Each day, you receive a
delivery of five
microwavable containers
containing a variety of
pre-cooked meals. Among
them: mushroom omelet
and cinnamon zested
oatmeal; shrimp cocktail
over mixed salad greens;
turkey burger with
grilled onions, sweet
potato wedges and string
beans; chicken breast
with eggplant caponata;
and baked salmon with
Swiss chard, mushrooms
and tomatoes served with
cracked pepper roasted
potatoes.
On weekends, you’re on
your own. “You can have
your favorite foods
then, just in
moderation,” Lynn says.
