Nutrisystem Reviews

So you've probably seen the commercials. Dan Marion, Don Shula, all of these former NFL heavyweights gained all this weight after they stopped playing, then they went on Nutrisystem, and now they've dropped 50-70lbs.

Is any of this true? I'd like to share some of my personal experiences with Nutrisystem and give you my Nutrisystem review.

Comparing Nutrisystem to the other popular diets, one of the biggest things that stands out to me is the cost. Nutrisystem costs $300 per month (including all meals and snacks), and Jenny Craig is $400-650 per month depending on the plan you choose, and Bistro MD is $520-720 per week depending on your plan.

For a single man, the basic Nutrisystem plan is a great option. If you don't know much about cooking, Nutrisystem makes it simple to lose weight. You don't have to count calories or weigh portions.

The form comes frozen, and all you have to do is heat it up. Some of the meals I enjoyed were steak with noodles and green peppers, chocolate cake, chocolate crunch bars, spaghetti with meat sauce, and south west chicken wraps.

Personally, I have lost 14 pounds with Nutrisystem and feel more energetic and feel like the food I'm eating is much healthier for me. I wasn't eating a lot of fast food before, but I did eat out often and Nutrisystem has helped me cut back on eating out, saving me more money. I personally would recommend Nutrisystem to any man that doesn't want the extra hassle in your life, plus it's a lot cheaper than the other diet options out there.

For those of you looking for a great comparison on Nutrisystem, here is our breakdown of the PROs and CONs of Nutrisystem.

Pros of Nutrisystem

• The convenience of the meals makes it easy to eat what you need, no counting calories or anything like that
• The diet plan promotes exercising right into the meal options
• You can supplement the diet with fresh foods from the grocery store
• The healthy meals provide balanced nutrition, with no binges or fasts
• Huge variety of different meals you can choose from including my favorite, pizza!

Cons of Nutrisystem

• Pre-packaged foods can be very high in sodium
• None of the food is fresh, making the supplements important
• Lends itself to yo-yo dieting because people have a hard time changing to a healthy lifestyle after you don't have the frozen foods to eat
• Doesn't teach you how to make your own healthy meals
