Nutrisystem #NSNation {Week 9}

Things are still going great with Nutrisystem! I’ve increased my exercise routine because of joining a local group doing the Biggest Loser program. My mom and I are actually on the same team and living together it has helped keep us motivated! The local fitness center offered us a free week trial and 10 week membership for only $30 so we’ve been at the gym every single day this week which I think has really increased my weight loss. Not to downplay the importance of healthy eating though because we did sit down with someone at the gym and talk to him about nutrition and he said that 80% of your weight loss success is based on what you’re eating. So while the extra exercise has helped I know Nutrisystem has played a HUGE part in my weight loss! Nutrisystem has really helped me understand portion sizes and the right kinds of foods that my body needs to stay healthy, which has helped me make good choices when I’m eating away from home and don’t have my Nutrisystem foods to rely on.

I think that’s just exciting to have a team of highly trained chefs making our food because it’s extremely important to me that the food I’m eating to loose weight tastes good!
