Starting Week 42 with Nutrisystem

Did you know Nutrisystem offers maintenance plans? Weekends My Way® sounds like a great transitional plan. Gotta love it...I haven't yet reached the goal weight that I initially submitted to the NS Nation team, and I'm already looking into how I will maintain it when I do. ☺ Now that's positive thinking! For more information on any of Nutrisystem's 4 maintenance plans below, contact them at 1-888-849-4686.

Over the past few weeks, several friends have said they think I've lost enough weight. I've gone back and forth about whether I have already reached my ideal weight or if I should continue striving for a 50-lb. loss which was the number I gave to the NS Nation team back in March. Almost immediately after submitting that number, I started thinking it was unrealistic for me at 5'7" and, at the time, 55 years young. I think the number I submitted to my Nutrisystem Counselor a week or two later was 140. The reality is I still have a LOT of toning to do and really, another 8.2 lbs. isn't going to kill me, so I am marching on toward my initial goal. Besides, I like hearing the little voice in my head that keeps repeating "I lost 50 lbs. on Nutrisystem!"☺ Keep listening, one of these weeks, I'll be shouting it from the rooftops!

Here's a great read about facts on weight loss including exercising and the importance of eating often that I found on The Leaf. My biggest mistake in the past was not eating often enough, starving myself all day, and then eating a calorie-packed meal for dinner. 

Lost .2 lbs. for the 3rd straight week....hmmm, maybe I'm nearing the plateau I've heard so much about. That's okay, I'm up for the challenge! I will try switching up dinner and lunch this week and a few other suggestions from my Counselor, Jaclyn. Total loss so far = 41.8 lbs!
