Nutrisystem - Yay or nay?

They don't work and its just a waste of money.

Hi, I was on the Nutrisystem diet back in 1990. I started out in the spring .I can't remember the date now it was so long ago. I started off at about 148. I kept on the diet all summer and I am not sure how far int othe fall. I got down to 135 I think. I had moved by that time and found a new doctor. I went to see him because I was dealing with depression. He told me to immediately get off Nutrisystem , said it was contributing to my depression. He also was not happy with the effects that their foods could have on my body . In trying to answer some of your questions. The food I remember was not too bad. It was expensive and I don't we really could afford it , so it contributed to our debt load. I really had to pick and choose the food to find things that I liked. If I went to someones house then I had to take my food along with me I think. At this point in my life knowing what I know now I would have chosen a different way to lose the weight . I have been dieting for about 25 years and the results have been disasterous. I am more than twice the I was the first time I starting dieting when I was 21. It had really messed up my body and my metalbolism . I would suggest find a program that you can follow the rest of your life , one that can help make permanant changes to the way you eat .

I thought about trying this system as well and I guess if you really think about $300-ish a month isn't that bad for prepackaged food. I would just be a little worried that if she fell off the bandwagon for only a few days and put on weight what would happen if you wanted to get off of it? I hope you find some answers because I would like to know as well.
