Nutrisystem! Hi, I'm looking to lose about 30 pounds. My mom wants to order me Nutrisystem, but is it really worth the money?
Couldn't I do the same thing with Lean Cuisine meals, or some other way cheaper diet brand? Or is Nutrisystem really helpful?
Also, how long would it take to lose around 30 pounds on Nutrisystem? Thank youuuu!

I have done Nutrisystem 2 times. Each time I lost
50 lbs, though I can't remember how long it took.
Didn't seem very long. The first time I did gain it back after a while.
The second time I was very serious and have not gained it back.
It is costly and I just couldn't keep paying
that much. However, I lost enough weight that
losing myself afterwards was much easier. I
was able to be more active etc.
So it is a very good program. Seems like all you
do is eat! You will not be hungry at all. If I
could swing it, I would go back on it in a
heartbeat.
Your food is in portions. You just add salads
and veggies. It even has snacks. The food is
very good too.
If mom is willing to let you try it, even a month
of eating that way will help you know how much
of what you should eat. Add exercise, which
they also recommend and you will lose 30 lbs
in no time. Just remember, when you stop the diet
you have to keep practicing what you learned.
And that is what it is really, a good learning tool. :) ]
all nutrisystem is, is like pre counted, pre portioned food.
it would take a while to lose 30 lbs doing anything, a healthy person would lose about one lb a week, max 2.
if you do order nutrisystem, make an extra effort to run, do crunches, pushups, or just anything physically challenging ]
Whatever you do, do not fall into the diet traps like Nutrisystem, Lean Cuisine, Jenny Craig, Aitkins, .etc
1. Sure, some of them work, but once you stop when you reach your goal, you will gain back every pound that you lost, if not more.
2. Diets like Aitkins and whatnot have been proven to be bad for various parts and organs of your body. For example, the Aitkins diet has been proven to be bad for your pancreas.
The best solution that also works the best is to just eat healthy and exercise. There is no miracle diet that will help you lose weight effectively without exercise. I'd just try going to the gym and lifting weights, or even take up jogging and job 1 mile a day, until you feel comfortable with that length, and then go to 2 miles a day, then 3, and so on. You gotta move it to lose it. :D
