Nutrisystem Diet Plan
What Is Nutrisystem? A Nutrisystem Review
The Nutrisystem Diet Plan of today is quite different from when I last joined the Nutrisystem weight loss program twenty years ago. Back then, the company had a storefront location in my hometown, and I needed to schedule a weekly weigh-in session and select my Nutrisystem meals.
Now, however, it's ALL available online or by telephone from the comfort of home. Nutrisystem online simply makes sense. It's much easier than before!
How To Purchase Nutrisystem Foods
Nutrisystem gives the option of signing up for a 28 day auto-delivery order and getting 1 week of food free plus an additional Nutrisystem discount each month. That means that you are automatically charged and shipped your 28 day program once every 4 weeks unless you cancel.
Auto delivery is really the best deal for the Nutrisystem weight loss program, and you can cancel at any time by telephone, but you must receive 2 consecutive orders to receive the Nutrisystem discounts.
I had a slight difficulty with the online ordering process, though. The Nutrisystem Canada® site wouldn't let me enter my email address to get the Free Body Assessment, so I phoned the toll-free help line and found myself speaking with Joanne, a friendly representative in the USA who patiently helped me through the online order process.
So, my order was shipped from the States, and I obtained several meal choices that for some reason are not offered on the Canadian site. A big plus for me, and a good reason for Canadians to purchase Nutrisystem foods via the toll-free telephone number that's provided on the website.
I ordered the Nutrisystem diet plan online on April 8th. My Nutrisystem food order left the warehouse in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania the next day and was delivered to my doorstep in Peterborough, Ontario on the 13th by UPS. That's just 5 days in transit; not bad considering it needed to cross the border!
The package weight is 42 pounds according to the UPS shipping label, and I believe it. It's heavy! I felt pity for the poor deliveryman as he lugged it up the front steps and into my house. I'm happy I didn't have to lift it and simply dragged it into my home office next to my computer.
I'll likely end up storing it elsewhere, though, as it's too tempting with all that food beside me while I work on the website writing my weekly Nutrisystem reviews. ;-)
Nutrisystem Box Opening: What I Received
My box of Nutrisystem meals arrived in excellent condition with everything I ordered present and accounted for. Nothing was substituted or left out. This was great, because before I share my reviews on Nutrisystem, I'd like to sample as many meal items as possible.
Along with the items I selected for my Nutrisystem diet plan, I also received a free week of food because I chose the auto-delivery method of ordering. The 28 sample items were chosen by Nutrisystem from meals I didn't have on my list. This gives me the opportunity try a variety of different food items, and it saves me money too.
With the 28 day supply of food (28 breakfasts, 28 lunches, 28 dinners, and 28 desserts), and my free week of meals (7 breakfasts, 7 lunches, 7 dinners, and 7 desserts) came the Men's Results Kit (Silver) in a large silver envelope. Upon opening the sealed envelope I found the…
- Welcome Letter: A friendly introductory letter giving a list of the box's contents and Nutrisystem contact information.
- Meal Planner: A daily log in which to record my eating, water intake, exercise, and weight loss progress. This recorded information will come in handy when I go to write my Nutrisystem reviews each week.
It also contains a "Grocery Guide" explaining what kinds of foods count as Dairy, Proteins, Fruits, Vegetables, Carbohydrates, Fats, and Extras giving portion sizes. Plus, there's a handy "Dining Out Guide" providing tips and portion guidelines on those occasions when you need to eat out.
- Resource Guide: An outline of the Nutrisystem diet plan, its online support options, an introduction to exercise, and information on meal ordering options for when you purchase Nutrisystem foods.
I'll comment on my use of the Nutrisystem diet program's resources in my weekly Nutrisystem reviews.
- On-The-Go Meal Planner: A handy booklet consisting of a pocket sized version of the "Grocery Guide" and "Dining Out Guide" featured in the Meal Planner. Very handy for when you are away from home at a restaurant or when shopping for groceries.
Overall, the Nutrisystem diet plan is a complete, well thought out diet package. There's even a large green "Welcome" sticker on the box with a toll-free number to call where you can listen to a message about getting started with the diet program.
The breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks were all kept separate on cardboard trays within the main box protected by air-filled plastic shipping bags during shipping. The secure packaging ensures that everything arrives in perfect condition. This speaks of quality and respect for the customer.
How To Store Nutrisystem MealsNone of the Nutrisystem meals need refrigeration, so I simply left everything handy in the box in my office, and I "shop" for a meal when one is needed. It's fun to choose a meal, yet sometimes it's not so easy to make a choice. They all look so darn delicious!
