Nutrisystem is a diet meal delivery service that brings you low-calorie meals that are configured for optimum weight loss. The Nutrisystem website claims that the plan is easy weight loss that works, and the company offers several celebrity endorsements to back up the claims. If you're hoping to lose weight through Nutrisystem, you need to order the food and follow the plan. You can substitute your own healthy foods in for snacks, but make sure to stay within your diet plan for the best results.
Step 1
Go to the Nutrisystem website, found in the resource section, to choose a meal plan. The company offers a base plan for men and women, as well as plans for people over the age of 65, those with heart issues and diabetics. Choosing the type of diet plan you want changes the food options available to you.
Step 2
Choose the length of time that you'd like Nutrisystem to deliver to food. You can order meal by meal, a la carte, for two weeks or a month. A good idea is to order a month's worth of food, as of 2009 costing around $250, and then evaluate your success after a month and decide if you want to continue.
Step 3
Look through the food choices and choose the ones that look the best for you. A good rule of thumb is to choose foods that you're already comfortable eating. Nutrisystem offers a wide variety of food options, but if you choose foods that you aren't comfortable with, you run the risk of receiving food you don't like and won't eat. Stick with classics and try a new one here and there.
Step 4
Start the Nutrisystem plan as soon as the food is delivered to your door. The faster you begin, the faster you can take control of your diet and lose weight.
Step 5
Substitute snacks and sides from foods you like. Choose healthy, low-calorie and nutritional foods to add to your meals to make them more filling, like fruits and vegetables, grains and legumes. Drink as much water as possible, abstaining from calorie-filled alcohol or sugary fruit juices.
Step 6
Follow the Nutrisystem plan with exactness, eating only the prepared meals and a few healthy snacks throughout the day. When you follow the Nutrisystem plan exactly, you keep your calorie count low and are able to evaluate accurately how much weight you lose while on the plan. Don't be tempted to stray with fast food or homemade favorites.
