My Nutri-systems food is set to be delivered today and I can't wait to get it! Until it comes, though, I've been looking at all the Nutri-Systems website has to offer in the way of help. Each Nutri-systems member has their own area to log into where I can keep track of my weight, calories, even the number of glasses of water I drink.
July 1 is a great time to start on a new weightloss plan. One month from today I hope to have lost 10 lbs at least so that is my goal.
I love the calorie counter. You can put in the Nutri-Systems foods you eat for each meal and then add different items like veggies, fruit or a protein and it figures the calories for you. You have an exercise log, a place to put your measurements and your weight, plus you can keep a weightloss journal if you want to.
The exercise part of the Nutri-systems website is great! I put in the exercise I do and it figures the calories burned. Today will be a good day for exercise. I walked the dogs for 20 minutes at a slow pace (they like to sniff!), I have a one hour yoga class and I'll use the treadmill for 30 minutes after class. My total daily exercise will burn off 650 calories! - Although in my opinion, the yoga class I'm in burns more than 200 calories. It's much more of a workout than I'd thought it would be.
The Nutri-systems website also computes your BMI from your height and weight. My BMI is at 25 right now, which is the low end of overweight so it's a good thing I'm losing those ugly 15-20 lbs in the next couple months.
I'll keep you posted on the Nutri-systems Program and what I think of the food and the entire experience. The number one thing is- Will Nutri-systems help me lose weight?

What's the Best Weightloss Program
I believe in healthy weightloss and eating a healthy diet. I love to cook too. I think lately I've been getting a little too much of the healthy diet though and I've put on about 15 lbs of stubborn belly fat. I know there are several weightloss programs out there where you can order the food and after investigating almost all of them, I chose Nutri-Systems.
My sister tried Nutri-systems for about 3 months and lost about 20 lbs. She said the food was good and plentiful and the cost was terrific when you consider what you are saving by not going grocery shopping. My husband is also going to go on the program with me for a couple months so it will be easier with menu planning-and I get a couple months off cooking duty!
I called Nutri-Systems to see if we could save any money by both of us doing the plan. I spoke to a very nice representative who gave me a couple of special deals. One was explained on the internet- if you do autoship, you get a week's worth of food free the first and second month. The other was a special phone offer of $30 off for both myself and my husband.
I got the basic program for myself but with the help of the representative, I made some substitutions in the lunch and dinner menus. If left to my own devices, I would rather avoid beef products and usually only cook beef because my husband likes it. This way, we can eat different dinners.
For my husband, I got the men's menu plan, which includes a little more food. He would also like to lose about 15-20 lbs and because he has high blood sugar, it is important that he lose for his health.
My food arrives at the end of the week so I'll keep you posted on my weightloss progress with losing those ugly 15 pounds!
