Thank You, Nutrisystem!

How do I thank a team of individuals for giving me a happier, healthier life? I've been thinking a lot about the last 77 weeks and remembering how I felt just starting out on the plan. Although I hoped {and prayed} I would be successful on it, a 50 lb. loss seemed a bit impossible to me. Not anymore!! In addition to the weight loss, my blood pressure is now a perfect 118/78, I no longer get out of breath just walking around the block, I'm more confident, even my edema has improved. "Thank you" seems so inadequate. I encourage anyone who is struggling to lose weight to give Nutrisystem's Uniquely Yours plan a try. Test the waters with the frozen a la carte meals if you're hesitant to commit. I was 55 when I started Nutrisystem and as hard as I tried, I couldn't lose weight. Now at 57, I'm here to tell you it is possible to lose weight....a lot of weight...even at this age. I promised to post some before and after photos so here goes ~

I'm a bit teary-eyed writing this...and a little scared to no longer have to be accountable, but I will always be grateful to this company, my counselors Jaclyn and Mary, and especially Ryan for believing in me and for giving me this opportunity. So, even though it could never be enough, from the bottom of my heart..."THANK YOU!". I also want to thank everyone who has followed my journey and encouraged me along the way. I wish everyone reading this who may be struggling to lose weight the same success I've had. Here's another before photo I was too embarrassed to originally post {and still am} and one taken a few weeks ago ~

I stayed the same last week as far as weight and am ending my assignment with a total loss of 44 lbs. Whether I would have reached my 50-lb. goal had I not been hit by a car as a pedestrian, I'll never know; but I'm proud of the weight I've lost and kept off while still recovering. One thing's for certain...I couldn't have done it without Nutrisystem. xo
