One Full Week on NutriSystem. How'd I do?? 5 Pounds

Morning Yall 

Today is day 7 on NutriSystem, a full week.   (Becca took the scale out when I started, yeah the same scale I thought she threw away last year, her butt hid it.)  

So I weighed in on the first day and as of this morning I have lost 5 pounds.      I have to say this first week was not bad at all,  the first day I was craving a snickers like crazy, but once I got past that I was fine.   

The food is pretty good, It does not taste like cardboard,  i'm loving the chocolate chip cookies ,chocolate cake, pound cake, etc...   I love sweets.  

So one week down,  I'm aiming for 8 pounds by the end of the month and I think I may actually be able to make it.  I sure hope so.    So Far so Good.  

My foot is finally well enough for me to run again so I resumed my running yesterday.  I am hoping that running will help me to lose the 3 more pounds to reach my 8 pound goal by Oct 1. 

I am very happy with the program.  I am happy with the results.  I am going into week 2 very hopeful. 

Way to go gurl. if it works go for it. i am rooting for your happiness.
Peace mz jojo

Considering I haven't been able to lose a pound in over a year, I'd say 5 pounds is awesome, and it's working so yep i'm going for it.  

Congrats! 

Thanks

Good job Lee.  Keep it up.

i'm glad you're having success with it.  keep it up.

Thanks Gigilani

It's not difficult,  the food is pretty good and all I have to do is eat it.    I am glad I can run again because I think I would have lost more if I were able to run.    But......  5 pounds is great for a bigger girl like me.  

Yes, 5 pounds is good.  Good to hear that you can run again as well.  If you want to move & can't that really sucks.  glad the food is tasty.  You also might look into replacing the Hormel meals with their entrees.  They may not work for you because the sodium content is high, but that's what I started using as portion control back in October.  It qualified as the ghetto version of nutrisytem with my surgeon for my WLS pre-op qualification

This is just week 2 and I have over $1000 worth of NutriSystem food in my house so it will be all I will be eating for a good long while.  

Once I start transitioning off of it I will look into other meals that have similar serving sizes.  But all those other meals have a lot more sodium your right.   So I am thinking I will have Becca make me meals and just start eating the way she does. 

I am really surprised at how easy it is for me,  I thought I would be in hell,  but it's not hard at all.
