So here is my update with my progress with Nutrisystem while on the Women’s Select Success Plan. I’ll get straight to the point that I’m disappointed in myself that I did not loose any weight last week. However, I’m very excited to say that I am still loosing inches! Let’s just hope my lack of weight loss was a timing issue and I was carrying water weight. I’ll talk more about that below and in my video, but here is my history as reminder of my progress:

Week 1 – 4 lbs.
Week 2 – 1 lb.Week 3 – 2 lbs.Week 4 – 2 lbs.
Week 5 – 2 lbs.Week 6 – 0 lbs.
Week 7 –  1 lb.Week 8 – 1 lb.Week 9 – 1 lb.
Week 10 – 0 lbs.
Week 11 – 1 lb.
Week 12 – 1 lb.
Week 13 – 0 lbs.Week 14 – 0 lbs.

Check this video below as I talk about my progress and some of my favorite foods. After I filmed this video, I quickly discovered that I am down a dress size! While I might not have lost any pounds that past 2 weeks, I have lost inches and I’m excited to know that I’m a size smaller than just a few weeks ago!

So here I am a little past the end of Week 12 with Nutrisystem on the Women’s Select Success Plan. If you read last week’s column, I ended up taking an emergency vacation to de-stress. I think it may be working (aside from a few nagging family members). I actually lost a pound this week! I won’t be returning home till later this week or next week, but I’m glad I brought my Nutrisystem with me and am sticking to the plan.

Week 1 – 4 lbs.
Week 2 – 1 lb.Week 3 – 2 lbs.Week 4 – 2 lbs.
Week 5 – 2 lbs.Week 6 – 0 lbs.
Week 7 –  1 lb.Week 8 – 1 lb.Week 9 – 1 lb.
Week 10 – 0 lbs.
Week 11 – 1 lb.
Week 12 – 1 lb.

The one thing that vacation gives me is time. I actually have time to work out multiple times a day. I walk to the beach, walk to the ocean, and am able to get a good sweat in while doing so. The weather is hot here, but not brutal. So sometimes it feels like even walking down to the harbor is a work out.

I’ve brought me with all pantry-read foods. So no ice cream sadly. Breakfast I tried the cinnamon buns! So delicious! The trick is to heat them in the microwave for about15-30 seconds, depending on your microwave strength. Dinner often includes the mushroom risotto, pizzas, or pastas. We’ve gone out a few times to eat. I’ll admit, I may have eaten more than I should have once or twice. However, when I know I might have a larger dinner in the evening, I was good about sticking to my diet during the day and the next day after. It is kind of hard when you are out with your family who all are the types who can eat whatever they want and not gain a pound. For lunch, I’ve been dining on Black Beans and Rice, Mexican Soup, or tuna fish with a salad. Some days however I’ve forgotten to consume my protein shake in the morning. Thankfully black coffee exists for that extra boost!

Just a remind, Nutrisystem is currently offering 40% off their 4 week plan with autodelivery. This comes to a little over $9 a day! This about what you spend on food each day and compare it to what Nutrisystem will provide. I think it many cases, you will actually SAVE money purchasing the Nutrisystem meals.

So here we now in the middle of Week 13. Let’s hope I can keep it up on vacation and when I weigh in next week, I’ll still see a decrease!

So here I am a little past the end of Week 11 with Nutrisystem on the Women’s Select Success Plan. As you guess in my previous posts, it’s been a stressful month to say the least. Even today I had a performance evaluation at work. Talk about super stress! Since I didn’t loose any weight last week, I worked hard to make up for it this week. I did a loose a pound, but what was kind of upsetting was that mid-week, I was down 3 pounds! Guess I gained those 2 back in the later part of the week. Not cool!

So I thought a lot about why am I struggling to loose weight in these later weeks. I switch the food up so I’m not eating the same thing every day. I vary up my exercise. Honestly, I think it has a lot to do with work stress. So what does one do when they are stressed? Take a vacation!

Week 1 – 4 lbs.
Week 2 – 1 lb.Week 3 – 2 lbs.Week 4 – 2 lbs.
Week 5 – 2 lbs.Week 6 – 0 lbs.
Week 7 –  1 lb.Week 8 – 1 lb.Week 9 – 1 lb.
Week 10 – 0 lbs.
Week 11 – 1 lb.

That’s right folks! I’m headed to a beach with family. I need this. I need to think about something else than work. I have my Nutrisystem packed and ready to go. That’s one awesome aspect about Nutrisystem is that the pantry-ready meals you can take with you wherever you go! All you need is a microwave or oven. You don’t have to worry about placing them in the freezer or fridge till it is time to dine.

So another shipment of Nutrisystem arrived since it is summer, I was very excited to see Fudgesicles and Dreamsicles! These are the most perfect treats for brutally hot days! Yes, we’ve had 90-100 degree weather lately and I love these taking these pops out on the porch and enjoying. What a delicious treat!

Now several readers have contacted me about the price of Nutrisystem. Well right now you can receive 40% off a 4 week plan. You just have to choose the auto-delivery option, which can be canceled at any time. Your price decrease down to $269.99 from $412.45. That evens out to $2.41 a meal, which is a little over $9 a day! This all includes 28 days of protein shakes, breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert with free delivery.

So here we now in the middle of Week 12. I’ll admit, I’m super nervous to step on the scale next Monday. Wish me luck on this vacation and that hopefully it will relieve some of the stress!

So here I am at the end of Week 9 with Nutrisystem on the Women’s Select Success Plan. It’s been a stressful month to say the least. Most of it has to do with my day job and balancing life as a single mom. Unfortunately, during the week, I’ve missed some of my meals. The stress gets so bad that I actually loose my appetite or simply don’t have time. I think this is throwing me off. Very often I weigh myself every day. I saw a lot of up and down with my weight this week.

This morning I weighted myself and I lost another pound. So far after 2 months on Nutrisystem, I’m down 14 lbs. In the first month I lost 9 lbs, so it was a little disappointing that I only lost 5 lbs for the second month. I just need to stay focused and work hard to get the rest of the weight off. If I am able to loose at least 5 lbs each month for the next 2 months, that is still a 24 lbs weight loss. Hopefully I can it back to 9 lbs a month, loosing a total of 31 lbs.

Week 1 – 4 lbs.
Week 2 – 1 lb.Week 3 – 2 lbs.Week 4 – 2 lbs.
Week 5 – 2 lbs.Week 6 – 0 lbs.
Week 7 –  1 lb.Week 8 – 1 lb.Week 9 – 1 lb.
 

Like I said, a lot of it had to do with stress and not necessarily sticking to my meal plan. I missed some meals which I think probably put my body into that “starvation mode” which then holds onto fat. I then also had company in town who insisted on dining out for every meal. I think I made good choices as far as that went. However, we did have a BBQ at one point and it was hard to say no to the appetizing treats.

I was still able to enjoy a few of my favorites, like the Mushroom Risotto (pictured above) and the Thin Mint Crisps (pictures below).  The risotto is one of my favorites. I like that it has a nice little spice and kick to it. Also, I went back to making my vegetable pizzas! Mushrooms, peppers, and onions. On some of them I even put broccoli. One night I was in the mood for something sweet, so I put on pineapple to give it a nice tang.

As for workouts, I did get a good amount of exercise in. However, it has been brutally hot here in Maryland. Just standing outside in the 90 degree weather, I could have sworn I would sweat out at least 5 lbs of water weight! Okay, not really, but I’m sure it is helping with the weight loss.

So here we are entering Week 10. The next two weeks will be tough as far as work goes. We have meetings galore and my performance review is coming up which determines whether I will get a raise or not. Wish me luck!
