Nutra system is all about portion size- I knew someone on that kind of program I would be hungry if I hate 1/4 of a cheap TV dinner 3X a day Gosh after a few days I would have a free meal! Same idea just no support person behind it.

Many years ago, I did a wt loss program where you had to drink their supplements and buy their meals...it was a HUGE drain on my finances...you were sucked in before you realized it and couldn't get out. Anyway, one evening I had heated up my meal and, of course, made real (and tasty) food for the rest of the family. My meal was sitting on a plate on the counter and my DH came in from outside and, to be helpful, picked up my plate of food and asked if I wanted the scraps put in the garbage!!! It was my meal. And he thought it was the garbage. You know, that is what it looked (and tasted) like. I quit the program shortly after that.
Although I need to lose wt, I really believe that getting exercise, watching portion size, and drinking more water is what people really need to do. And, also eat your larger meal at noon instead of in the evening. Of course, do I do what I am suggesting...no. :)

I LOVE the magazines @ the grocery check out with all the yummy looking dessert pictures but the head-line is " Loose 25 #'s by EASTER... and that is the APRIL issue.. or Walk off 20 #'s before your next birthday (how do they know when my next birthday is?) lol We put WAAAAAY too much pressure on ourselves. Everything in moderation!!! and guess what ! I am going on a cruise next Sunday so I am trying to take off 10's in a week.. I am just as bad as the mags. tee hee the pressure is ON!!!

I am a believer in having a healthy weight whatever the lb. number is, a lot or a little. Being overweight just adds to many health problems and causes a great many of them. To me being overweight is like having a bad sore on my body, I will treat the sore and do what I need to to get it cured. Same with my weight. I will do what I need to do to keep my weight where it is best for me. I don't like not eating that cookie but I tell myself to get over it and go on.

I agree with everyone's comments. I think I will get up and dance around the room during every weight commercial.
