| lovenyc's Full Review: NutriSystem Weight Loss Program |
1) If you have any health issues, be aware of the SOY content in their packaged products. Almost all products contain SOY in some form.
2) Sodium is also quite high in most products
3) Learning portion size was a plus. I did loose a few pounds.
4) Example of a breakfast food: Powered scrambled eggs. Seems like using real eggs/egg whites(or egg beaters) would be more nutritious.
5) Some packaged food taste was OK, but for the most part, I have to say it was not good.
6) The 'Nutrition Consultants' (sounds official but still don't know what that means) seem ill prepared to answer dietary questions except to order more of their product. They are quite pleasant but not well educated in dietary or nutrition.
I would not buy into this again or recommend it.
