Nutrisystem
Nutrisystem is a diet plan that consists of pre-packaged meals delivered to your home. The food plan includes
entrees, snacks and desserts. Users supply their own fresh fruits and vegetables. The diet is designed to help
users control their appetite by eating low-glycemic foods that regulate the blood sugar and help curb cravings.
Creaters of the Nutrisystem program claim that the eating plan is designed for dieters who don't have the time or
inclination to choose and prepare their own meals. By having a ready-made meal delivered to their door, Nutrisystem
users are more likely to make a healthy-eating choice at mealtime. Spokespersons for Nutrisystem, Inc. have
included the popular entertainer, Marie Osmond, pictured at left.

| "I have been on the Nutrisystem Plan for only 2 months and have lost 30lbs. ...Its a
simple program, you see results fast which modivates you into staying with the program. I weigh
less, feel healthier and have more energy than I have in over 20 years. TRY IT, IT REALLY WORKS!!"

| "I think the only reason people lose weight on this plan is because they simply cannot
keep the gross food down. I'd rather eat a live snake." user comment on epinions.com |
| "I tried the Nutrisystem program originally to debunk it. Several diet plans failed
me. Once you leave the program, you revert back to the weight you were. In my case, Nutrisystem
helped me to make lifestyle changes that everyone can apply whether you leave the program or not. I
chose to stay, because I like the food and it's a convenient way to shop." user comment on amazon.com |
| "It worked for me. With the diet and exercise, I lost 120 lbs over 18 months."

| "I decided to join Nutrisystem about a year and a half ago. I had a second child the
previous year and had an extra 30 lbs to shed. I had convinced myself that I had "metabolism"
problems. Eventhough it is expensive, my husband and I found the money for me to start. I had tried
diet after diet before this. What I discovered to be the best part of Nutrisystem it really doesn't
feel like a diet, more like a lifestyle/eating habit change. Well, 6 months later 35 lbs gone and
back into single size clothes. Some of my clothes from high school were fitting. I was afraid to
come off of the program. I was afraid eating habits would revert back and I would gain all the
weight back. But, here I am over a year later and the weight plus some more is still off. It truly
was a lifestyle change for me. I found eating smaller portions and being more aware of healthy
foods became second nature. So, if you are ready... and only if you are ready... do it! My dad
joined about 3 months after I started when they saw my body shrinking before their eyes and he lost
75 lbs (men stink!). If you aren't ready to 100% commit, you will be wasting your money. That means
being ready to follow the program to the letter, crossing every "t" and dotting every "i." I knew
if I paid that kind of money for something, I would commit to it. So,if you are ready to give it
your all, go for it!" user comment

| "I have tried many diets to try and cut down on carbs. Nutrisystem is the first one
that does not leave me hungry after meals. The best part is that Nutrisystem food actually tastes
good. I eat like I want to and still lose weight. I have been on it for 4 months and am still not
sick of it. I can see myself eating Nutrisystem forever." user comment on epinions.com |
| "This diet is the worst I have ever tried. The food tastes terrible with the exception
of a few items. The portions required are so small I was hungry all the time. The first week I lost
3 lbs." user comment on epinions.com |
| "I loved Nutrisystem! I stuck to the program but, I still have treats on Halloween,
Thanksgiving and so on. I lost an average of 10 pounds per month and on the months that I was
consistent on work out sessions I lost 13 pounds. It is a great program and they send bears for
every ten pounds that you lose, that was so much motivation. I would debate cheating but, I would
see my bears that I earned so far and thought about how much I wanted that next bear, then I would
not cheat. I lost a total of 60 pounds in 6 months." user comment on epinions.com |
