Thanks for visiting my blog!!

My name is Natasha and like you I struggled with my weight for many years. From a senior in high school, through the college years, and married life. During that time my weight fluctuated from 189-201lbs, however after giving birth to my beautiful son in November 2003 my weight escalated to my highest high of all time. A whopping 230lbs!! I have never been that big in my life. I was content with the weight because my loving husband never complained about. It wasn’t until I visited my OBGYN in the summer months of 2005.

I love my OBGYN because she delivered Arman in 2003 so she has always been thoughtful of my health. Anyway, I was visiting her for my annual check up (pap and all) and everything was great until she looked at me and said, “you really need to lose some weight!” I was not surprised, but kind of alarmed with the tone of her voice. She sounded concerned. She reminded me that if I didn’t lose weight and continued to gain I will become the next statistic for diabetes. That freaked me out because my very own dad suffers from that disease along with heart disease and other ailments from a unhealthy lifestyle. And, as a child I remember seeing him in the hospital and all the meds he would take and they really scared me. So in essence, I was scared and I was thinking about my very own child and thought to myself I did not want to put him through that type of scare. I also wanted to be around to see him grow up. So after my visit with my OBGYN I was really ready to make a change in my lifestyle.

The reason why I say I was “really” ready this time is because I have tried many other diets in the past from cabbage diet, Atkins, Jenny Craig, weight loss pills and many more. Not to say they all didn’t work I was just not ready to make that change back then. So one night I was up late watching T.V. and this infomercial came on about Nutrisystem and I remember seeing Kat Carney, a health journalist, talk about the program and how easy it was to follow. I also remember seeing a lot of the success stories that motivated me to get started on my weight loss journey. So after seeing that I talked to my DH and told him how excited I was to start this program and that I was really ready to do this. Later that day I signed up and very excited to get my first shipment!!

I remember starting the program on September 14, 2005 at a starting weight of 225lbs. At that time I almost weight as much a my DH and his is 6’4” and muscles. Let me tell you Nutrisystem changed my life. I learned how to eat healthy and watch my portions. I also gained a love for exercise in my life. From easy treadmill walking, to interval training and step aerobics. In 8 months I went from a size 18/20 to a size 8/10!! I am so excited to have the new me. I can now shop at any store I want and keep up with the skinny girls at the gym. I also got the chance and honor to be in Nutrisystem’s advertisements in magazines like shape, self, and other health publications. I also had my story in Good Housekeeping’s April 1007 issue too. So if you are thinking about losing weight and looking for a reputable diet plan go to Nutrisystem. It worked for me and I know it will work for you.
