My Nutrisystem Journey and Review

A self-described serial dieter tries Nutrisystem for the first time. This is my daily journal where I document the entire experience from evaluating the plan, to purchasing the product and journey of at least the first 30 days (and maybe longer). I will be photographing all the foods and detailing my daily intake, activities, my successes and hopefully not too many failures. I hope this review will be helpful for those considering this eating plan.

Diet Day 248 Breakfast

Another half pound and I'll be down to my lowest, which I weighed for one day back on March 14, 2017 (a little over a month ago). It's gym morning and I selected a Nutrisystem Double Chocolate Muffin to have along with my coffee. I think I only had one of these before and it actually tasted pretty good. For those of you who have not read any previous blogs, I'm not a big "sweets for breakfast" person.

That said is was adequately filling and got me through my workout.

Diet Day 248 Morning Snack

Around 10:15 I had my Nutrisystem Chocolate TurboShake. These are filling for at least an hour and a half or so. If I weren't so lazy I could eat some vegetables later if I get hungry before lunch. I took off for another walk before lunch. I went a little less than 2 miles.

Diet Day 248 Lunch

I heated a little tub of Nutrisystem Bean and Ham Soup. I still order this every once in awhile, it's pretty good, flavorful. I served it with another field greens salad with about 1 tablespoon Bolthouse Greek yogurt blue cheese dressing. I added a little scallion and grape tomatoes.

Diet Day 248 Afternoon Snack

I had to take a short walk to do an errand but it was enough that I've racked up over 12k steps for the day. Woo hoo!! When I got back I had my usual afternoon cup of coffee and my Nutrisystem NutriCrush Peanut Butter Chocolate Bar.

Diet Day 248 Dinner

I've put off trying this entree for a few days. This is the Nutrisystem Tuscan Inspired Pasta. I read the reviews the other day and it does not sound good BUT we shall see, you never know. I'm having another big field green salad with some red bell pepper and the same Bolthouse Greek Yogurt blue cheese dressing (just a little).

So the verdict on the Tuscan Inspired Pasta? I think the creator of this dish needs a quick visit to Tuscany for some fresh inspiration. I didn't care for this dish. It was quite bland with some little meat bits that tasted like tiny pea-sized meat balls. The beans were fine but the pasta was very soft and mushy. If I had some canned tomatoes, or stewed tomatoes or anything like that I'd have added them, it may have helped. The salad was good!

Diet Day 248 Dessert/Snack

I wasn't hungry after dinner but i did go outside and pull a few weeds. I had a cup of coffee and later a few more glasses of water.

Diet Day 248 Wrap Up

Gym was tough today but nothing new there. All my meals were OK with the exception of my dinner entree. It's just one meal so, oh well. I got well over my 10k step goal (over 13k!). I've lost 2.6lbs since Friday, not bad. See you all tomorrow!
