Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
Hi guys!!!! sounds like everyone is doing GREAT!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!!
I lost another pound, yippy!!! My arms are killing me though, I worked them out way too much! Hurts to lift them up, 
I have to say about worrying about getting sick from the food not being refrigerated, dont worry you wont.
I have IBS ( Irrital Bowel Syndrome) and a very sensitive stomach so at first I was real scared to do this diet knowing that anything new will set my stomach off, BUT I am getting just the opposite reaction, I have never felt better, yes,  I have cheated and went out to dinner and tried something I knew for sure - at least in the past- would make me sick but I want to try new things and stop eating so blah b/c of my stomach and I was FINE!!! I didnt get sick, no running to the bathroom, no gas ( sorry TMI) no cramps or pains in the abdominal area, NOTHING- I finally got to feel what its like for a normal person to eat what they want and have a stomach made of steel!!!! The food from NS has really helped me tremendously!!!
Keep up the good work everyone!!!!!

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
Hey everyone...I weighed myself this morning...My offical weigh in is tomorrow morning - so that is when I will put down my weight for the week. I am down to 184.6 from 192.2. I have notice my stomach has gone down, but my clothes have not gotten loose on me yet.....I am patient lol.
I am running out of food...My new shipment should be here in a week or so....For dessert, all I have left is pudding. Anyone have any good recipes for the pudding?
For breakfast I only have oatmeal yuk. I am not getting that next month.
I ended up buying all of stay and johns food that she was selling, and splitting it with my mother in law. Now I have plenty of lunches, and dinners that I didnt have before.
Last night I had the chicken and pasta parmesian. Very yummy....I made spinace, and green beans with it and a salad with cranberries, and crushed almonds.
This morning I am at home, enjoying the quiet and drinking some coffee...I am having oatmeal for breakfast.....

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
Hi guys,
I checked my weight yesterday and lost 3lbs! Im so happy to finally see something come off! It'll be a week tommorow since I started. I cheated a bit on Friday night (bday party) last night we went to a superbowl party and I made myself a turkey sandwhich on whole wheat bread and stayed away from the brownies for dessert!
After seeing a little weight finally come off, Im more motivated now! 
For my veggies w/ dinner Ive been making stir fry veggies (bought the frozen pkg type) but I didnt add any oil, just some PAM, minced garlic, and red crushed pepper and its SO good and very filling! Tastes much better than munching on raw veggies. I added some to the top of the thin crust pizza also.

congrats on another lb! 1lb is still something! Yes it's definitely better than gaining AND better than staying the same! Im sure some weeks will be better than others for all of us. Did you stick to the diet the same way as you did week1? Are you working out as well?

How much have you lost?
I have lost 15 lbs total and 2 pant sizes, Im back into my 10 jeans. BUT I cheated like crazy. If I stayed on it like Flee and was strict I could have easily of lost more but when AF comes around I get chocolate cravings like crazy and I HATE the chocolate from N/S.
I am just so happy to have lost and still trying to loose more need at least 20lbs to go AND so happy with all the cheating I have done I have NOT gained !!!
I went to a superbowl party lastnight and my own stepsister didnt recognize me from the back, she and others said OMG you lost so much weight, I was like not really ( in my head im thinking I should have lost more) but its more the inches that I have lost. I see my belly going way down, and my hips- exactly where I needed it. my sisterin law couldnt believe how my belly has disappeared so much!!! Im seiked, just hearing that makes me love N/S even more!!!
with other diets if I cheated forget bout it- I would gain what I lost and more!!! I felt so good lastnight too!!!
Scott- dont worry you will def feel the clothes getting loose!!!
Keep up the great work gang!!!!!! and for faster weight loss exercise, remember you dont have to go to the gym, use that book of exercise movements they give you and do it to your favorite shows right in your livingroom!!! Good Luck and heres to more wieght loss!!!!

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
I had the vegetable pasta salad for lunch - I couldnt even eat half of it. Im wondering if I rinse whatever sauce its made in, if it would be ok, I think I could eat it plain but that clear sauce it's in makes me want to gag and ofcourse I ordered like 6 of those for lunch
girlygrl that's so great you lost that much even w/ cheating! I know it feels so good when others notice that you lost weight! Congrats!

thank you so much!!!!! yes I did cheat a lot but I also go to the gym and exercise at home so its not really that good you know, like I work my butt off to just burn the bad stuff but not loose anything new. so now Im back to serious.
Are you talking about those cold vegetarian pastas for lunch? If so OMG I LOVE those but they didnt have them when I ordered they were all out. I would rinse it, if you dont like that sauce, cant hurt, if you bring it to work just put it in a tupperware, thats what I do with my food when Im at work for lunch time. I either cook it ahead of time and just reheat and put in a tupperware. I hate when you bring some type of weight loss entre and then the hundred million questions come with it or comments like does that taste good or is that really filling. yada yada, so I bring a salad allready made and my n/s in tupperware.
Oh wanted to answer Scott too on the oatmeals, add some cinnamon to it just a bit for sweetness.
duh forgot to tell you too you can add that vegetarian pasta salad with your salad too. mix it up and use whatever dressing you like.

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
girlygrl - yes im talking about the cold pasta, I dont know I just really cant bear the taste after a bite or two, I wasnt full at all since I threw most of it out so I ate 2 steamed veggie dumplings, I hope that's not too bad.
Lol I know what you mean about wanting to avoid the questions! I also put everything in tubberware and bring it to work so I dont have to explain my lunch to anyone. I'll try your suggestion about mixing up the pasta and my salad - maybe that will help.
Kim - Congrats on the 7lbs! Im new at this so I dont have much I can share yet, but Im sure if you stick w/ NS you'll keep up your weight loss and possibly lose even more / month. I find that writing everything down and logging my food into the diary on the NS website helps me stay focused. Good luck!
Im so glad this thread is here so we can support eachother and exchange ideas about the food!

Kim
First I hope you are feeling better. I know EXACTLY what you mean about cheating and getting back on track!!!
7 lbs is AWESOME! as for words of wisdom, dont give up or give in to your temptations, take 1 day at a time to get back into your routine, at least that is what I told myself and so far so good back on track! Its hard REAL hard to get back on track when you cheat- I wish I never did, I would have lost more and wouldnt have had to workout harder! I try to tell myself that going off N/S is the enemy - I look at it like a battle. Then when I reach my goal I can splurge all I want with the rememberance of just how hard it took me to get there. My fav 2 junk foods are napolean pastrie and devil dogs, I refuse to have them until I reach my goal. I also have other things to do for myself that dont consist of food to reward myself when I reach my goal. I dont want my life to revolve around food food food.
ok did 30 min on treadmill watching Dr Phil and now its time to vacuum and fold laundry and move my arms! LOL.

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
Good Morning veryone,
Last night we went to Danielle's sisters house for coffee and cake. It was her 4 year old nephews birthday. They had cake and coffee with whole milk, yummm. All I had was Sugar Free Gum. It wasnt too bad. Thank god I wasnt hungry. I ate dinner right before we left.
Last night I had NS Pizza with sauteed onions and mushrooms on top. For dessert I had Pineapple, honey dew and Grapes......I didnt eat any of my fruit during the day, and a NS vanilla pudding. It was ok, just had a wierd texture. I will try the chocolate pudding next.
Any ideas as to what to put in to the pudding? I made it with skim milk, because I didnt use one of my dairys for the day.
This morning, I have oatmeal and the ham and bean soup for lunch. I should get my food for the second month next week...So far I am down 9 pounds.
Scott

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
Morning Last night I had the pasta w/ tofu It looks like I dont like any of their prepared pasta ( I like the dry ones where you add water though) I couldnt finish that, I mixed half into my bowl of stir fry veggies and that helped. I had the chocolate biscotti for dessert, I didnt really like it so I didnt end up finishing it. I did find yesterday though that I got fuller quicker. Hopefully thats a sign my stomach is getting smaller.
Anyone know where you can buy low fat granola cereal? I checked Pathmark and couldnt find it.
Also anyone considering going off NS before you reach your goal? Do you think you could plan out your meals in the same format as NS?
I was thinking about doing it for another month and then try to do it on my own.
Scott - I think adding skim milk to the pudding is probably the best thing to do, if you want it creamier maybe you could add 1 or 2% milk.
Maybe you could add some fat-free cool whip on top, its very low in calories!

Re: THE OFFICIAL..... NUTRISYSTEM .....thread
I haven't been around the past few days , so I just skimmed thru the thread today. Everyone seems to be doing great, keep up the good work!! Remember everyone loses at a different pace so as long as you aren't gaining, even a 1 pound loss is a loss!!
My husband and I have been doing N/S together and I cannot tell you how many weeks I was SO frustrated that he'd lose double the amount I did.. and I was eating much less! So try to keep that in perspective if the scale is bugging you. And as Janice said, you are probably losing inches even if the scale isn't showing an obvious loss..
And for those of you who 'fell off the wagon' a little bit.. no worries, no guilt! I fell off the wagon BIG TIME this past weekend but always get right back on track starting Monday. IN fact, when I do over eat or "eat bad" I feel SO sick as a result, I actually look FORWARD to being 'good' again. Ya just gotta pick yourselves up, and start fresh..
I've found that I've bee able to cheat a lot here and there (within reason) and I've not put back any weight.. and I've been on the plan since last September..
Way to go everyone!!
