What is NutriSystem
NutriSystem is a portion-controlled weight loss program. They started out with "bricks and mortar" weight loss centers, but some years ago changed strategy and became on-line only. While being similar to Jenny Craig - NutriSystem has one major advantage - it is far more affordable.
How Does Nutri System Work
The Nutri System program provides an on-line analysis to calculate your calorie requirements. From this, your meal plans can be calculated and they will begin to ship all your meals to your door. This kind of weight loss program has distinct advantages:
- Sustainable weight loss of around 2 pounds per week.
- Based on the Glycemic Index
- All meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert) are provided and delivered to you (free shipping on 4 week food orders). Note that you may want to add some fresh fruit and vegetables to your meals.
- On-line support available with membership in the program (including chat and one-to-one counseling sessions).
- Yes - a weight loss counselor will actually phone you once you've subscribed.
- Portion controlled - low fat, controlled carbohydrate, and protein. For most women calorie amounts will be 1200 per day (although this may vary up to 1500 per day for very active women, and men).
- Free membership to all aspects of the program (you only pay for the food).
- Programs for Men, Women, Vegetarians, and Diabetics.
- Free exercise program and meal planner.
The idea behind the NutriSystem diet is to provide a healthy portion controlled diet, for a short time frame, to get you back on track.
NutriSystem select is available in four different options for both men and women; Basic, Silver, Diabetic, and Vegetarian. Meals average around four dollars per meal and they are offering free shipping.
