I've been able to see Nutrisystem in action and can testify to the fact that a strict Nurtisystem diet will aid in weight loss. Here's how I know: my mom and step-dad have been doing the Nutrisystem program for the last couple of months and their auto-ship agreement sends food a little too quickly, so we have a stash of Nutrisystem foods. Well, I've been home alone for the last week and ate just about everything here (although I just shopped so I'm good now ). With my high metabolism and activity amount, I tend to need a lot of food so I basically came to a point where I needed to eat some of the Nutrisystem stuff for a snack. Since I love pancakes I decided to give the Nutrisystem pancakes a shot. (A bad pancake? May it never be so!)
Apparently one packet of the pancake mix is meant to be for breakfast. Ha...ha? One packet (one pancake at about 7 or 8 inch diameter) is just not going to work. So I made four. With a stack of pancakes in front of me I grinned widely, poured on a fair amount of maple syrup, and began to eat. My chewing, which was rapid at first, became progressively slower as I began to really taste the pancakes. They weren't great. Or good. They tasted like the secret behind Nutrisystem was that one would be disinclined to finish their food, thus avoiding ingesting unnecessary calories. Sure, I ate the pancakes anyway--but I had to drown them with syrup and didn't like the taste even then.
So if you are interested in weight loss, consider Nutrisystem. You a) will be driven hungry by the small food portion or b) won't be able to finish the small food portion prescribed and will starve.
Bon appetit!
