Nutrisystem Review & Coupons for 2015

What We Like

  • Convenient, easy-to-follow plan does not require calorie or points counting
  • Plenty of meal variety—over 130 different food choices with new, chef-inspired creations
  • Free, well-developed online tools and membership support

What We Don’t Like

  • Transitioning from prepared, portion-controlled meals to your own healthy cooking requires extra effort
  • A number of food choices on the Nutrisystem menu (frosted chocolate doughnut, southern-style biscuits and gravy, cinnamon bun, etc.) do not promote healthy “after plan” eating habits
  • Nutrisystem reserves the right to substitute similar products if the items you order are not available—this could present a problem for individuals with food allergies

How Nutrisystem Works

Nutrisystem® is a portion-controlled, calorie-controlled meal delivery weight loss program that combines variety, nutrition, hunger control, and convenience designed to produce weight loss results for busy individuals and families. Each meal features a Nutrisystem entrée that you supplement with common grocery items such as fresh fruit, vegetables, salads, protein and dairy items, and healthy fats.

Nutrisystem entrées are color-coded and labeled as breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack/dessert. A personal meal planner is included with every order that outlines all meals and snacks and also serves as a food diary. The planner/diary features 28 daily pages to check off entrees, snacks, desserts and other fresh servings consumed each day.

Included with your first 28-day order is The Mindset Makeover®, an online interactive guide to help you navigate the Nutrisystem program and overcome common diet-related challenges.  When you order Nutrisystem, you also gain access to Nutrisystem weight loss counselors and a free online membership to a community website where you can track your progress, join support groups, order food, and chat with weight loss counselors and Registered Dietitians.
