NutriSystem for the New Year

It's time to try a new weight loss tactic! After going on a new prescription over the last year, I have found myself gaining and losing the same 20 pounds. Now that I'm off the meds, I'm ready to lose the weight!
I have decided to give NutriSystem a whirl and in the coming weeks I will be sharing my experiences with you in my "NutriSystem Diary".

NutriSystem is based on the Glycemic Index.

According to NutriSystem .com, their Nourish plan is rich in good carbohydrates and low in fat.

Ordering the Food

I ordered my 28-day supply of food at NutriSystem.com. It was really easy. All I had to do was enter some information into a profile and I was a registered member for free.
There are a lot of great services at the Web site that you can use even if you don't start the program. I was really impressed with the site's content and after clicking around a bit, I proceeded to order my food.

Help ... I Need Somebody!

Things got off to a great start, because before I even ordered, I found myself with a question or two. Instead of looking around for a 1-800 number, I was able to instantly enter a chat room where almost immediately, I was joined by a NutriSystem counselor.

Does Fast Food Fit In?

Since I am a student, I often end up eating fast food on the go, or, heating a meal in the microwave in the student commons. I asked the counselor if eating out is an option and she said yes, and that I would receive information on dining out options with my shipment. It was good to know I'd be able to work in fast food options when I need to.
