BEFORE NUTRISYSTEM

I know that I have mentioned this before, but Nutrisystem is the only thing that has worked for me. It consists of delicious food that keeps your metabolism going all while keeping you satisfied and full of fiber and good for you protein. The food is amazing. How else can you eat Pizza, Cinnamon Rolls, Lasagna, Pasta and other yummy food and desserts and lose weight? NUTRISYSTEM! If you are struggling with losing weight I encourage you to give Nutrisystem a try. You will not be disappointed!

I wanted to give you all an update on my Nutrisystem journey. It has been such a fantastic experience and I am loving my results! At this point I have lost 17.5 pounds and am feeling Fantastic! Not only have I lost weight, but I have gained confidence with how I carry myself and how I feel about my appearance. 

I am so thankful for the opportunity that Nutrisystem has given me and the ability to continue on with this journey. I am so close to my goal weight and need to lose about 7 more pounds. I know that this is a crazy time of the year with lots of goodies and fattening foods but I am determined to reach my goal! 

I also wanted to share with you some exciting things that have happened in regards to my Nutrisystem journey. Do you ever dread going to the Dr.’s office because you just know that you will have to get on the scale? Well typically that is me. However, when I went to the Dr.’s office last week and saw the number I was overjoyed with excitement! I did not dread looking at the number and felt confident in the number on the scale! Also, I have recently gone shopping and found that I am comfortably in a size 10 bottom! Score!! Before Nutrisytem I was in size 14 bottoms! Here is a picture that my hubby recently took of me. I still have a little way to go, but overall I feel great about where I am right now!

I am so excited that after just over 2 months on Nutrisystem I have lost 14 pounds! I love Nutrisystem not only for the delicious food, but also for how the program makes me feel overall. The Nutrisystem program keeps me feeling full all day long and I love all of the vegetables that I am eating and the water that I am drinking. I really feel so much more healthy these days and I know that I am looking better as well!

I wanted to share with you a couple of my favorite meals from this past week. The Nutrisystem Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast with Sauteed Veggies and Nutrisystem Pizzas are so yummy. I love to add tons of veggies to my meals and they keep me feeling full too! 

One of the things that I often have to remind myself along this weight-loss journey is that it is not a Marathon to the finish but rather a sprint. I tend to lose weight a little bit slower than others, so sometimes I can get discouraged. I love the quote above as it really portrays how I feel. I am proud of myself for the goals that I have accomplished so far and every step that I have taken. I can’t wait to reach my next goal which is 20 pounds! I know that I can do it! 

I am also happy to say that I am fiitting back into size Smalls & Mediums in Blouses and my size 12 pants and skirts and getting loose on my. Size 10 bottoms here I come! 

Stay tuned as I continue on my amazing journey with Nutrisystem! Want to join me and lose weight and get healthy on Nutrisystem? Join today by calling (1-888-853-4689) or by visiting (http://www.nutrisystem.com/nsblog)

I totally forgot to put update you all last week regarding my Nutrisystem Weight loss journey! This has been a crazy couple of weeks for me as we prepare to send Drew back to school, last minute trips, and all the fun that the end of the Summer-time brings! With all of the being said, I have not faltered on my weight loss journey and am still going strong! At my last weigh in, which was last week, I am down 6 1/2 pounds! BUT, I can tell that I am losing inches as my clothes are fitting so much better these days!

One of the things that has helped me along the way is to not weigh myself every day. Now I know that some folks may disagree, but for me it can be discouraging if I get on the scale every day and see no movement. It is so much more of a postive experience to me when I weigh in once a week. My next weigh in is this Sunday so I am crossing my fingers!

I started walking 2 miles a day 4-5 days a week and feel F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! I had Rotator cuff surgery 11 weeks ago so I still have to be very careful in the excercise department. Even on those days when I don’t feel great, if I walk, it makes me feel so much better about myself!

One of my favorite afternoon snacks! Hard-Boiled Egg and Fresh Grapes!

My freezer filled with yummy Nutrisystem foods!

Overall I am still really enjoying the food. There are just a few items that I don’t care for everything else is amazing! Having dessert each night with this program makes me feel like I am cheating but I am not! It is all part of the plan!

Stay tuned for next week’s update and I hope to post a picture soon so you can see some of my results so far!

I am well into my second week of the Nutrisystem program and have really been enjoying the program. The food is delicious and I love how the program shows you to have portion control in your diet. Instead of eating an entire bowl of ice cream, you will learn to become satisifed with just a few bites. Or, instead of indulging in an entire bag of chips, just have a few to be satisfied. One of the reasons that I love the Nutrisystem plan is the idea that all of your foods are perfectly portioned – this keeps you from overeating. I think this idea of portion control is really starting to stick in my mind!

I thought it would be fun to put together a list of some of my favorite tips that have helped me so far in my Nutrisystem journey so here they are! 

Prepare Ahead of Time– With the Nutrisystem program you should eat at least 4 servings of vegetables each day. I find that it is so much easier to get in my veggies when I am prepared and have everything cut up ahead of time. This allows me to have everything ready for a quick salad or snack. I also love to prepare hard-boiled eggs ahead of time so they are ready for me in the refrigerator when it is snack time!

Log all of your Food and Liquid Intake– Nutrisystem has a great app called Numi that allows you to track all of your food and water intake as well as manage your weight loss. There are some other cool features to the app so be sure and check it out! Logging your food each day really allows you to see how many calories that you are putting into your body and the foods that you are consuming for every meal and snack.

Get Creative With Your Veggies– I absolutely love Zucchini! One of my favorite things to do is to use my Veggetti Spiral Vegetable Slicer and make spiralized Zucchini noodles. I take my Nutrisystem entrees (particularly those with a tomato base) and place them on top of the Zucchini noodles. This is to die for! Get creative with your other veggie choices as well. I find that I am now enjoying veggies more than ever before.

Water, Water and More Water– Be sure to drink at least 64 oz. of water each day. Sometimes I feel like I spend a lot of my time in the bathroom with all the water that I am drinking, but water intake is so very important for weight loss. It also makes me feel so much better when I get all of my water in each day. You can also drink diet soda and products like Crystal Light on Nutrisystem, but WATER is the most important!

Dessert- I love that on the Nutrisystem program you get dessert every day! The desserts are amazing! You get everything from Ice Cream Sandwiches to Chocolate Chip Cookies, Fudgy Brownies and everything in-between! You almost feel guilty eating these things but it is all part of the plan! 

Contact your Nutrisystem Counselor with any questions or concerns – The Nutrisystem counselors are amazing! My counselor Stephanie has given me some fantastic advice so far and I have been implementing some of her ideas in my plan. The counselors are there for you and to support you along every way of this journey. 

Be Patient- What are my results so far? I am down 5 pounds and 2 inches off of my waist. I did not lose any this week, but my counselor told me not to be discouraged. My body is adjusting to all the changes and I should start to lose some more next week. I am noticing a difference in my clothing so that makes me feel really good! My hubby said that he can tell I am losing too so Woohoo! One thing that I try to tell myself daily is the fact that I did not put the weight on overnight so it is not going to come off overnight. It takes willpower and determination to continue on this amazing journey. I am so thankful for this opportunity and that I can make these positive changes in my life. 

Stay tuned and please continue to follow me as I strive for a better and healthier me!

I can’t believe that one week ago I started my Nutrisystem journey! If you remember from my post HERE, I started the program with the Fast 5 Kit. 

I am not going to lie. The first week was REALLY hard! Especially considering that we went on vacation from Thursday to Sunday of last week. There were so many times that I wanted to cave and have some of the snacks that my boys were having, but I am happy to say that I did not give in! I took all of my Nutrisystem food with me and thankfully the resort that we stayed at had a kitchenette with a microwave and refrigerator so that really helped me to stay on track! I took lots of raw vegetables to snack on with a Fat Free Low Calorie dressing to dip them in. I recently came across the Skinny Girl Dressings at Walmart and LOVE them! They are Sugar Free and Fat Free with only 5-10 calories for 2 Tablespoons. I also had my energiZING and Craving Crusher shakes so that really helped me to feel full and to have that chocolate fix that I needed each day!

So………what are my results with the Fast 5? I am happy to tell you that I am down 5 pounds and 2 inches off my waist! Yes, you read that right! I had to remeasure my waist several times as I could not believe it! This makes the Fast 5 week totally worth it to see these results! 

Today I begin the next phase of my weight-loss journey which is the Nutrisystem My Way program. With this phase, you eat Nutrisystem meals for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner; however, you add in 4 servings of fresh vegetables 3 PowerFuels and One SmartCarb each day. AND, at night you get a Nutrisystem dessert! It is also very important to drink at least 64oz. of water daily. I could not wait to start the Nutrisystem My Way program today with this yummy Nutrisystem Cinnamon Roll! It was so divine!

Stay tuned as I will continue to update my amazing weight-loss journey with Nutrisystem! I can’t wait to be a more fit and healthier me!

I am super excited to share with you how my first day of the Fast 5 Nutrisystem Program went! If you are not familiar with the Fast 5 program, it is kind of like a One Week Bootcamp Program to get your body ready for the next step in the Nutrisystem journey. You stick to 3 meals a day, 64 oz. or more of water, 1 Energizing Shake & 1 Craving Crusher Shake. Then, you can add in unlimited amounts of Non-Starchy vegetables. You do need to make sure that you have at least 4 servings of vegetables daily. 

One of the biggest things that surprises me with the Fast 5 is how full that I always feel. I find that sometimes I even have to make myself eat at the appropriate times even if I am not that hungry. I LOVE that you eat at least 5 times a day as it really keeps your metabolism going! I am also drinking LOTS of water so I find that I am continually going to the bathroom!

Here is a look into first day in pictures. I really have enjoyed all of the food so far and the shakes give me the chocolate fix that I need each day since you don’t get dessert during Fast 5. 

Breakfast: Nutrisystem Blueberry Lemon Bar and 16.9 oz of Water

Mid Morning Snack: energiZING shake in Chocolate

Lunch: Nutrisystem Mexican Fiesta Rice Soup with Sauteed Zucchini, Garlic, Mushrooms & Onions

Mid Afternoon Snack: Chocolate Craving Crusher Shake

Dinner: Nutrisystem Chicken in BBQ Beans with Cucumber & Tomato Salad 

Stay tuned next week as I will be sharing my week one results with you! I am thrilled to see my results and to be on the road to a healthier me!

I am so excited to announce that I am a Nutrisystem #NSNation Blogger! I shared this news on Facebook last week and am thrilled to let you all in on the news now! I will be starting the Nutrisystem Fast 5 Program on July 13 and will be sharing my journey on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I will also be sharing my journey on You Tube so be sure that you are following me on all of my social media outlets!

Why Nutrisystem? The past several years have been very hard on my physically. I was in a car accident back in 2012 and since then have undergone several surgeries which have caused me to gain weight. Now that I am on the road to recovery, it is time for me to take charge of my body and lose those pounds that have crept up on me. 

I am so excited about Nutrisystem and feel that it is just what I need to get me back on track to feeling good about myself again. I can’t wait to get healthier and to have my quality of life back! I am nervous, but I know that I can do this! This program comes with so much motivation – the testimonials and results that I have seen from others make me pumped to get started!

I will start my Nutrisystem journey with the Fast 5 Program. The Fast 5 program allows you to jump-start your weight loss journey. With Fast 5, you follow a unique Fast 5+ meal planner plus FREE Expert Guides to make fast weight loss simple, and enjoy a special combination of Nutrisystem® breakfasts, lunches and dinners, four fresh veggie servings (or more!) of your choice and two FREE shakes a day to help you control cravings and rev your metabolism.

After the Fast 5+ week is complete, I will then move on to following the standard Nutrisystem® meal planner (which varies depending on which plan you choose). I will be following the Uniquely Yours Plan. 

I am so excited to start this journey on July 13 and can’t wait to share it with you! Stay tuned for my first post!!
