Many people have visit my page called “My 65 pound Nutrisystem Adventure” and asked me the same question which is does Nutrisystem really work? Does the food taste good? How long does it take to lose? Well, to answer the first question, yes!! Nutrisystem does work!! I am not a model, I am just a regular person needing to lose weight in order to not became diabetic. Before starting the program I weighed 230lbs which is a lot for my 5′8” frame and I was so over being that weight, so that is when I joined Nutrisystem. Here is a picture of me before (I hate this picture, but here we go):
This was a picture of me on our cruise in 2004. I hated this photo and the feeling I had when I was on the cruise. On the excursions we went on and by the way a lot of walking was exhausting and I new something needed to be done sooner or later. Many people today look at this picture and say is that really you? Of course it is, but many friends and family know this is me and how far I came on Nutrisystem to get to the new person I am today through getting the correct portions, drinking water, and exercise. Here are a few pictures of me after the weight loss weighing at 155-160lbs:
So you see. I am a real person that struggled with there weight too any continue to maintain it to this day.
Now, how does Nutrisytem taste? For me, it taste great!! I found foods that satisfied my cravings because you can customize the food you like on their program which is a plus. The ship the food to your home which is very convenient too. My favorite foods were:
- Thin crust pizza
- Lassange
- macaroni and beef
- chilli and beans
- hamburgers
- low fat granola cereal
- pancakes
- chicken noodle soups
- vegatarian pasta salad
- chicken salad with melba toast
- chocolates
- granola bars and many more!!
So, what I am trying to say that if you decide this is the program for you try to find foods that you enjoy in order to make your weight loss process a bit more enjoyable.
The other question that was asked a lot was how long did it take to lose the weight? For me it took 8 months to lose 65 pounds, but keep in mind that everyone loses weight differently. It may take someone longer or even shorter to lose this amount that is way all weight loss programs say “All results are typical”. So, if you are trying to lose weight and need something that works by all mean try Nutrisystem. It worked for me, so why wouldn’t it work for you?
