I’ve reported to you that my husband and I have each lost about 30 lbs and several inches on Nutrisystem. Lately though, we’re on yet another plateau from Hell. We’ve been including flex meals, as Nutrisystem would like us to, and we’ve maintained, but not lost, any more weight and it has been at least a couple of weeks now.
The last time this happened, I was advised by one of the counselors to switch lunch and dinner entrees. That helped for a bit, but not long term. We’ve been eating large salads for dinner. I’m beginning to suspect that we need to scale those back. I know that salads are an area where you can unconsciously pile on more calories than you meant to.
The other thing I’m going to do this afternoon – while the weather is forecast to be yucky – cold, and an 80% chance of rain – is to reread my notes and the articles I saved from Nutrisystem to see if we’re glossing over something that is causing this aggravation. My husband’s response is to stop eating anything except grapes, apples, nuts, NS cookies, and the salad we have for dinner, other than our flex meals. I’m trying to talk him out of this, since NS advises not to skip meals, and to eat what is on your plan – but this is falling on deaf ears at the moment. I’m doing better about staying on the plan, but my results aren’t great, either, so I can see why my husband wouldn’t put much credence in what “I” am telling him he ‘should’ be doing…
So – I’ll do some reading and see if I can figure out why we’re not losing the lard lately. Wish me luck?
