NutriSystem Weight Loss Program

Pros: It would be convenient if the food was palatable.
Cons: The food.

I was so anxious to begin the NutriSystem program that I actually paid $20 extra to have the express shipping. I started the first day by opening a container of scrambled eggs with sausage crumbles. It puffed up and resembled scrambled eggs in ...

Pros: I think i covered the pros in my lengthy story.
Cons: I think i covered the cons in my lengthy story.

Wine, wine, wine, complain, complain, complain. Some people’s reviews on this site are killing me. What a bunch of babies. Sometimes I can’t tell if some of these reviews, where they cry like little babies, are actual people or people who work ...

Pros: Not too expensive
Cons: Not for everyBODY

One thing I have gathered after years of dieting-no plan is for everyone. Nutrisystem is no different.
The main advantage to me is that I could do it all online. I don't like to go to mettings to talk about why I am overweight, I don't particularly...

Pros: Convenience
Cons: The food is often inedible.

I've only been on the program for a couple of weeks, but I gotta tell you: I find the food totally revolting. I suppose I'd call myself a picky eater but not to the point of being narrow minded. I just like high quality ingredients. If I had analyzed ...

Pros: Good variety, portion control, easy ordering, good taste.
Cons: Overpriced on some items.

After trying for a long time to stay on a plan of my own I jumped in and tried Nutrisystem. I just completed my first month and lost 11 pounds, in spite of the fact I had several "cheater" days. For the folks that wrote about the low quality of ...

Pros: just grab 'n' go, fast shipping, pleasant customer service
Cons: Poor quality

I truly believe the people at NutriSystem have a good concept. It takes the guesswork out of portion sizes, and the food is pre-packaged, so you can just grab it and go. The kit comes with a food journal so you can keep track of what you eat and how ...

Pros: imposed portion control
Cons: little variety, bad food, over priced, poor service

For $300/month, you get what amounts to 30 packets of instant oatmeal, 30 packets of cup-a-soup and 30 lean cuisines. You still have to purchase fresh veggies and fruit, salad and salad dressing, bread, yogurt, cottage cheese, low fat cheese and your ...

Pros: Great samples of food choices and portion sizes plus VARIETY.
Cons: None

Simple put I'm female, 58, and not vain. But Christmas of 2004 my kids were proud to be using their new photo cams taking pictures of Grandma with the grandchildren. Grandma was the one that looked lethargic. What a rude awakening. I couldn't be that ...

Pros: some of the food is okay, convenience
Cons: expensive, better alternatives, most of food is disgusting

wow! where do i begin here? Basically there is very little good going on with this "diet." Its overpriced garbage which ranges from totally inedible to okay at best. Let's see breakfast muffin so dry you choke on them? Cereals which are edible you can ...

Pros: Portion control, dinners were better than most of the other food.
Cons: Taste, need to buy more food, possibly made me as ill as I've ever felt!

After finally deciding to lose weight that I had put on for years, I thought the "minimal cooking" of Nutrisystem would be the answer. I got on their web site and chose the individual meals for myself, but after a few times of the site freezing, I ...

Pros: Meal planning done for you
Cons: Dinner foods are AWFUL

I lost 30 some pounds on NutriSystem in 1989 and thought it was a great program. This August when I decided I needed to lost some weight I turned to NutriSystem. I knew it was going to be pricey, but figured the results would be worth it. I was SO ...

Pros: Easy to Prepare (most meals require just adding h2o), No Guesswork on portion sizes
Cons: Some meals ARE a little "artificial" tasting - eggs need work. More tofu meals.

I have a 9 month old baby at home and am also back to work. Need I say more? Cook? Who has time? And compared to the JUNK my husband and I were eating trying to just fill our bellies after being purely exhausted, Nutrisystem was a welcome relief. It ...

Pros: Easy to follow. You actually lose weight.
Cons: May get repetitive after a while.

If you are looking for a culinary experience that will delight the taste buds as it makes the weight fall away, keep looking. You will lose weight. You may lose a lot of weight. And, surprise, the food is not awful. Well, some of it is. But some of it is ...

Pros: portion control, quick prep time, portable
Cons: price, constantly shopping for fresh produce, aftertaste, substitutions

I have only been on the diet for about a week, so I can't comment too much about its weight loss potential, but I can give a little insight into the food. Fist of all, I weigh over 260 lbs, and these meals do a decent job of making me feel full. They ...

Pros: None
Cons: Taste, Cost, Customer Service, etc; Everything.

What I don't understand about all these reviews are that the bad ones are hidden towards the end and right in the middle. Why is everybody avoiding the truth of the matter? The food is horrible. You lose weight because you would rather not eat ...
