#NSNation Update – Week 1
I’ve been on Nutrisystem for about a week. I’ve had good days — I’ve had bad days but I stuck it out (even when my kids got McDonalds and popcorn and cotton candy). Now, I lost almost 4 lbs from the time I ordered my Nutrisytem food to when I actually got the food and got to start the system. So I lost 4 pounds without even trying! (If it could only we that easy all the time!!) Now, from last Monday to this Monday (while eating the Nutrisystem food), I have managed to lose an additional 4.2 pounds! Not bad for a week.
I should be happy about that. However, I know that this is a long process and that I won’t lose that much this week. I’m figuring most of that is just water weight. Things I need to do better this coming week is to add exercise to my routine and drink a lot more water.
The #1 question I have gotten this week from people wondering about my journey is how is the food. Honestly, it is pretty good. That really surprised me. I thought I’d hate the protein shake. It’s not too bad (a tad rich). I have learned that my stomach does not understand correct portion sizing though. In the past, I would have eaten 2 of the meals as one meal, so my stomach has a learning curve too. LOL
The other really hard part of Nutrisystem is that I still have to cook for the rest of my family. It is sometimes hard to watch them eat something you love. That being said, there is a lot of the Nutrisytem Food that you can match. For example, my kids and husband ate hamburgers the other night. There is a hamburger meal for you. On Friday night, the kids had pizza. Nutrisytem actually has several pizzas you can pick from (which is good because I love pizza).
So how do you think I’m doing on Nutrisystem?
TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS SO FAR: 8.2 lbs.

Starting my weight loss journey
Okay, I am putting myself on a diet. Ok, not quite a diet. It is a new product called Sensa. I’ll be honest — I’d love to lose about a hundred pounds. However, at this point, I would like any sort of weight loss. My goal is to do an update post each week. If I don’t, somebody clock me upside my head and remind me. Sensa is a product that allows you to eat whatever you want. However, it helps with your portion control. All you do is shake a some of the Sensa on your food everytime you eat, and it does it’s magic.
I weighed myself this morning, so I know my starting weight (no, I am not listing it here) and I took some pictures (well, my mom was here and took them):
So I guess we can call these the “before” pictures. I’ve watched the DVD that came with the Sensa, and it said that some women don’t see a change until 3 months into this. I hope that isn’t me. I am all for instant results. The first thing I have noticed is that the Sensa makes my food taste better. Now, I plan on mostly keeping to my normal lifestyle, and we will see if this works for me. If you’d like to join me on this journey, use ROCKETXL to get 15% off your order (no minimum order either) and you’ll get free shipping too.
