NutriSystem Advanced
A new heart healthy approach from this long-trusted weight loss program.
BACKGROUND
The new NutriSystem Advanced program builds upon the original NutriSystem program by adding omega-3 fatty acids and natural fibers to its eating program all in an effort to promote weight loss.The omega-3 fatty acids are scientifically recognized to promote heart health and getting adequate fiber keeps you feeling satisfied longer. This new system still keeps the "good carb" Glycemic Advantage of the original NutriSystem, which is its trademark golden ticket to shed the pounds.
The Advanced program is easier to follow and healthier too with the added bonus of color-coded meals and the inclusion of fatty acids and natural fiber in its products. OmegaSol and NutriSol are the newest ingredients in the Advanced program's food. Both of these components contains a blend of heart-healthy soluble fibers and omega-3 fatty acids to create a feeling of fullness while promoting heart health. The program totes itself as being a real-life solution to losing weight. You get to eat throughout the day consume pre-packaged and pre-measured NutriSystem entrees, snacks and desserts. Sixty new foods have been added to the new NutriSystem Advanced program. Just like the traditional NutriSystem, you choose one of seven 28-Day programs that is right for you (Women's, Men's, Women's Silver, Men's Silver, Women's Type II Diabetic, Men's Type II Diabetic or Vegetarian). If you hate to shop, measure, and prepare your food and want to boost your heart health, this latest innovation from NutriSystem might just be for you.

my problem with all of these prepackaged diets is that they don't teach you about portion control. after you finish you are on your own. people need to go to the internet research healthy meals, stop being too lazy to cook and exercise. you can save hundreds of dollars. i have a friend who is on this and course she is losing weight, but she has with many of these prepackaged diets, but she doesn't know anymore about nutrition than when she started. people with hypertension need to be leary of prepackaged foods
I wish I would have known ahead of time that I would be supplying most of my food when I ordered Nutrisystem. You receive 3 small meals and 2 small snacks for each day. You are supposed to supplement them with 5-6 servings of fruits and vegetables, your own dairy, carb, and protein servings per day. Their food costs $80-$90 a week and I have to spend another $30-$40 a week for my supplemental servings.
Some of the food is OK and some of it is awful. It is also high in sodium. One thing I have learned is portion control. I used to eat till I was stuffed. With this diet I now understand what a portion is.
I need to lose about 40 lbs. and planned on staying on this diet for several months. After 3 days I decided to just finish out the month and go it alone. By buying my own food for entrees and eating the same food I am supplementing Nutrisystem entrees I'll cut my grocery bill at least in half.
food is sooo good, order it from QVC, less money
I love the food and have had very good customer service if I find something I don't like and wish to exchange it. Alos, the weight is coming off and support from other members is excellent.
It was ok. Very expensive. no follow up sevices!
So far I am on the diet for six days. I lost 4 pounds. Feel great. The first two days I didnt think I was going to like it,but after the next few days I had a totally different opinion. I love to eat but I feel so good on this diet I am going to stick with it.
All the dishes that have a tomato sauce base are overpowering in flavor its to much for the taste buds
I started the program 3 weeks ago and have lost 9 lbs. Most of the food is surprizingly good. The plan is easy to follow and I'm never hungry. Thanks Nutrisystem.
I have read many complaints about the sodium content, however if you add up the four items daily they give you the daily value is between 60-80% and you shouldnt be getting and sodium from your other added items. If your eatting a can of soup and a sandwich with a couple slices of deli meat and cheese you've already exceeded your DV of sodium. Get a grip, your probably eatting half the sodium while on this diet. Food is ok, but takes getting used to.
I've just started it and find some of the food, such as the tomato sauce and mushroom risotto has overpowering flavor. Just too much. Many of the other dishes are quite good. I'm going to stick to it for a while.
i like the system,easy to use,food is good.to all you people bagging on it.your gonna stay fat,because you have the wrong mindset.im eating it and excercising the weight is coming off at a steady rate.yay nutrisystem
It wasn't so much the food as the crooked way they would charge after you cancel. You call and ask why they charged days afterwards, and they say you'll get a refund, but they have your money for a couple of days. I think they are very much a racket and not a good company to deal with, especially with your credit card number.
BAD
I love it! Been on the advance program for 3 weeks and have lost 20 pounds. I am a huge fan of home cooking and was very afraid of what the food was going to taste like, and to my surprise it is pretty good. Portions are just fine, the first week I was hungry but that has all passed. I am planning to order my second month because I am very pleased with the outcome. Anybody that is serious and ready to lose weight, this is a great program.
I've been on the program for a little over a week now and love it. The food is good and tastes pretty good as well. Maybe if your used to deep fried twinkies and chicken fried stake you might have trouble sticking to the program, as this is the complete opposite. Don't expect to open your first package and magically you have dropped 10lbs already. I was only 150 lbs so actually fairly small, however I dropped 7lbs within 9days. You need to get your butt of the couch and exercise as well as eat the foods recommended and you will do great on the diet. Whoever says the food is desgusting don't listen and see for yourself. This is a simple solution to losing weight and as far as I'm concerned you don't really have anything to lose cuz you are fat already so giving it a try and maybe losing some of your weight should be motivation enough. If you don't have will power then definately stay away from the programa nd save your money. As far as portion sizes go they are pretty decent and will make you full, whoever says they don't fill you up and they are tiny, well I guess you are fat for a reason. This program is a mind make over and a new lifestyle it is not food to pig out on.
The food is God Awful, this was my 3rd attempt doing this program, I thought they improved the taste of the food, because it says new advanced improved, well it's not, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
Im prego and do any min...Once i start this diet i hope to lose at least 10 pounds a month along with the nuphedine pills i heard there the best!!!
I've been on the program for 1 month now and I love it! It is so easy to follow, no counting or measuring! Not everything thing tastes GREAT but most of it is pretty good! To those of you who thought the portions were "tiny" Duh.. you are on a diet! That amount is what you are supossed to eat to lose weight! And if you follow it and eat your veggies, fruit and dairy you will not be hungry all the time!
I just started this program and so far I think the food is good. And of course it's small. It's a diet. And if all you think about is food, you're going to make yourself think that you are hungry when you're probably not. Whoever doesn't like this program obviously has no willpower. I think it's great and I know that it's going to work wonders for me. Good luck to everyone that is doing this program with me!
I love it!! It works!! I'd totally do a commercial for them Ha! I am on my 16th day and I have never eaten so well. I am a vegetarian so I got the advanced vegetarian plan. I don't use microwaves, so I use the stove top directions which is an option for all the food. The food tastes awesome to me , for processed food that is. That is the only thing that is not perfect to me, is that it has additives and the sweetener they use is splenda which is not good for you, but on the flip side I am willing to endure these non perfect aspects to gain the invaluable lessons of how to eat properly. If you follow the plan precicely then you'll have made a lifestyle change and that to me is better than just a diet plan. I have always been one of those people who would eat one huge meal a day, maybe two and never drink water only coffee. Or not eat at all or tried juice diets. But day two on this program I found that I was practically eating ALL Day long and full all day and didnt know if I cold finnish everything. Drinking 8 glasses of water is tough to do, but I force myself and its paying off big time. You do have to prepare your own dairy, protein and salads and that makes your meals much larger than the little entres they give you.When I get off this programm I'll have a whole new, better way of living and thinking about food. Oh and did I mention I've shrunk like crazy!!! I dont own a scale I just look at body mass and whether or not I can fit my butt into my skinny jeans. I'm closer to doing so now than I have been since I was 18year old!
