My youngest is now 15 months old and I’m ready to kick this leftover baby weight that has spread to my waist, hips, and thighs out the door! I am so excited that I have been selected by Nutrisystem to be a part of the Nutrisystem Nation Blogger Program! I have a terrible sweet tooth that seems to think candy bars make the perfect snack and ice cream should be a regular late night treat!

I am so excited that my first month of food was just ordered for me and is on its way! I can’t wait for my box of food to arrive and get started on this journey! I have no idea what to expect as far as the food goes and I tend to be a somewhat picky eater so I’m hoping the food is a hit. The menu and options sound really pretty good so I’m hoping they will not disappoint!

Starting Point & Goals

While I may not have a TON of weight to lose overall what is really important to me about my upcoming journey is to learn to how to control my snacking, sweets obsession, portions sizes, and get a grasp on what healthy eating habits look like! I have a goal to knock 17 pounds down from my current weigh in, but I’m not sure I will reach that goal. That number is my excess weight post-baby to lose but I also hope to exercise and gain muscle to totally transform my fat to muscle ratios, regardless of my final scale weigh in!

    I was looking at your nutrisystem goal.  I admire you, what I really liked is how you are giving us receipes and ideas on staying on the diet. I have tried so many diet plans, some that worked.  I am going to try with this, light on money, wish I was the opposite.  Thanks for inspiring me.

    Wish I could stick to a diet like this!!

  • Brittany Green

    Good Luck!  I’m interested to see how you like the food.  I just decided last night after a discussion with my husband to do some type of weight loss program and know that my will power isn’t strong enough to count points and do all that weight watchers requires and was thinking of doing nutrisystem.

    Good Luck! I’ve tried their food in the past. It didn’t taste great but it looks like they have improved there food. Jenny Craig has the best tasting food. It just costs a lot.

    Thanks for the motivation!  I need to do something.  I’ve been holding on to excess weight for about five years!

    Good for you.  I have a 9 month old and am also working on losing baby weight.  It’s very slowly starting to come off, but I think I’ve hit my plateau.  Good luck.

    Janel, I really struggle with weight.  Do the NutriSystem meals stop the cravings.  I don’t crave sweets – it is salt for me.  I also am a picky eater and wonder if you get to pick your own meals.  I am considering trying the NutriSystem – everything else has failed.

      Cheryl, My first order of food hasn’t arrived yet but I’ll let you know!! You do get to pick your own meals, you can go in and “pretend” to order and get all the way to the checkout page before putting in credit card information to give you an idea of the foods.
