Wow, I am into my second week with eating diet food delivered by Nutrisystem. How time flies. I guess I am having fun since the time is going so fast.
I have already lost four pounds, and my wife has lost three pounds. We can both feel a difference in our bodies occurring, and are excited to be able to enjoy our meals, and not feel guilty. The meals we have been eating are delicious and filling. That was a major concern for me, that I have enough to eat. Nutrisystem makes sure that I am not going hungry.
I’m not quite sure how they do that, and help me lose weight too. It seems like I am eating a lot of food that shouldn’t be allowed on a weight loss diet, but I am eating it all, and losing weight.
One of my favorite things so far, besides being able to share the meals with my wife, is the great variety of meals and snacks.
My buddies used to joke around about diet plans, especially the ones where the food is delivered to your home. Saying things like “ Have some celery delivered right to your door”, and “ Pay for your veggies to be cut up for you.” They were all wrong, and so was I. The meals consist of great food, whole grains, lean meats, veggies and fruit. All the ingredients are made to cook food that I like, and that won’t interfere with my blood sugar levels being good. I have even been given specific food I requested, and not given food that I already told them I don’t like.
My boys have been commenting about how I am beginning to look more muscular, and we set a date to have a basketball rematch when I reach the 10 pound loss mark. My doctor says that should be fine, as long as I exercise regularly, and continue to follow this healthy diet through Nutrisystem.
One thing I was concerned about is maintaining my weight once I reach my goal. I have heard that maintaining is harder than losing the weight. When I asked a counselor at Nutrisystem about it, I was told that they offer to continue to work with people once they are at their goal. The maintaining program will help me get used to eating food that I can prepare myself, and they will teach me about proper portion sizes, and making sure I am eating a balanced diet.
I feel great about the things that I am seeing with Nutritsystem. I know I am going to end up healthier and have a longer life expectancy, thanks to losing this weight with the help of a healthy program like Nutrisystem. Oh, and a little bonus, my wife is looking sexier than ever. I know it has only been a few pounds so far, but her face and her waist are obviously thinner. She is getting hotter every day. (I wonder if she has the same thoughts about me.) Anyhow, our love life has taken on a new dimension from both of us feeling better. I am looking forward to seeing what will happen next.
