Nutrisystem - FG Review - Julie loses 76 lbs.Does Nutri system really work? - Military Mom Shapes Up Julie loses 76 lbs.* on NutriSystem, gains spot in commercial Click - To View The Entire System Now Hi, my name is Julie. I'm a wife, a mother of a 14-month-old daughter, and a captain in the U.S. military. This is my weight-loss story. I've always been a really active person. I was a cheerleader and participated in crew, both in high school and at Florida Tech in Melbourne, Florida, where I graduated with a BS in marine biology. That all changed, though, when I decided to join ROTC. Why? The training was very time-consuming and didn't allow for the two workouts a day I was used to, so the pounds started to add up. I struggled with the same twenty to thirty pounds during my last two years of college and first three years following college. My job in the military requires a level of physical fitness; being fit and trim is literally part of my job. And because of the added weight, I always struggled to meet the requirements. That worried me. Then I got pregnant, which was great news for my husband Jon and me. However, Jon (a Military Policeman) was soon deployed to Iraq to command the 118th MP Company, so he was gone during six of the nine months I was pregnant and was unable to come home until the baby was six weeks old (and that was only for two weeks). I felt terribly lonely and depressed. I just let myself go during my pregnancy and added an extra 60-plus pounds to the 20 pounds I'd already gained over the years, and my weight peaked at a whopping 223 lbs. (I'm 5' 8".) Because of my career (and for health reasons), I knew I had to shape up—or else. The military makes it very difficult to stay healthy. It supports a healthy lifestyle and physical fitness, but the operation tempo at work on a daily basis and the availability of healthy food make being healthy a challenge. The long hours at work (usually over twelve a day) make working out after work next to impossible. And the "quick lunch and get back to work" pace makes it very difficult to find low-fat food that's quick and tasty. During my pregnancy, I ate with all guys at work, so fast food was my staple. It fit our schedule, and because of my depression, I didn't care how much weight I gained. Click - To View The Entire System Now The Nutrisystem weight loss planI had Emma Grace in August 31, 2004. Soon after Emma's birth, I began planning how I would lose the weight. I saw an advertisement for NutriSystem weight loss and decided that, with my busy military lifestyle and living alone with a new baby, the ease of the program would be perfect for me. I was right. It was easy to take to work and work into my routine. I quickly lost all the weight plus the twenty pounds that I had always struggled with—76 lbs.* in all! Nutra System weight loss programThanks to Nutra System, I didn't find losing weight very challenging. I lost weight so consistently that it was easy to stay on track. The whole experience was rewarding—I felt great about how I felt about myself and how I saw others responding to me in such a positive, supportive way. Nutri Systems diet was so convenient to use, too. Between our morning workout sessions and going to work, breakfast was always just a quick grab on the go. And I'd take a lunch to work, so when we'd go to a fast food restaurant for lunch, I would just grab a side salad because I had eaten my lunch at my desk prior to going to lunch with the guys—so my hunger wasn't out of control and I never missed out on the social aspect of our lunches. It was quick and easy when I got home, too—especially because I liked so many of the dinners. I love all the pasta dishes. The burger and pizza are also among my top five favorites, along with the mac and cheese, and the hot dogs. Basically, NutriSystem took the thinking out of losing weight and I could concentrate on more important things. Even better, I am able to do my job up to my potential now because of the weight I lost on NutriSystem. I can run and be much more active. I have more energy to go long hours, too. And prior to NutriSystem, I'd never met the military weight standards without taking my body fat percentage into account. But since losing the weight, I haven't had to have additional testing done to make sure I meet the standard! Now that I've lost 76 lbs.*, I look how I feel I should look. I mean, I pictured myself thin and healthy before, but would see pictures of myself and dismiss the thick thighs and the big butt. But now I don't have them and I actually have a gap between my thighs! I am so much happier, too—much more outgoing. And I love to go shopping and try on jeans! I couldn't fit into 14 jeans after I had Emma, and now I am in to a size 6 with room in them! I'm not the only one to notice that I look better, either. My husband would see me on the Internet over our webcam while he was deployed and the more I lost, the more anxious he was to get home to me as soon as possible! I also went back to my hometown after I had lost a lot of the weight and my old classmates were all buzzing about how great I looked and couldn't believe I had had a baby. Pretty much everyone has been so thrilled for me. Most people have wanted to know how I was doing it so fast. I even got my mom, sister and cousin to try the program and they all had great results, too. In fact, my cousin lost almost 10 lbs.* in her first week! I taught them what man NutriSystem has taught me: to balance my food and to control how much I am eating. For example, I don't need to eat a whole sandwich; I can just eat half of it and be full. And just because the restaurant gives you a full plate of food, that doesn't mean that that's how much you should be eating in one sitting.
NutriSystem Advanced seemed to be happy with my weight loss, too—I couldn't believe it when I was asked to be in one of their commercial shoots! My whole family was so excited for me. I was really nervous about going, though, and almost backed out at the last minute. (I thought maybe I hadn't lost enough to deserve to be on the commercial shoot.) I was also afraid that people who weren't my friends and family would not be as impressed. But my mom told me to go and I am so glad that I listened. I had so much fun and met so many amazing women who accomplished such amazing weight loss, that the experience will be an inspiration to me for the rest of my life. Speaking of the rest of my life: My husband and I were assigned to Korea once I finished Captain School after I was promoted from 1st Lieutenant to Captain. We recently moved from Fayetteville (Fort Bragg), North Carolina to Yongsan, Korea! It was a very difficult move with a one-year-old and a husband (neither of whom travel well). We were in the process of moving starting in mid-July and we finally arrived in Korea on 22 Aug. So it took just over a month to get everything on line. And the big news continues—now we're joyfully expecting our second child in April of '06! So I can tell you from experience—NutraSystem success is the perfect plan for new moms who need to lose weight. You don't have to worry about what you need to be eating and you can concentrate on your children because NutriSystem does all the work of laying out your meals for you. It is so worth every penny. Just try and it and you will be amazed at how simple the program is! Thank you, NutriSystem! I owe you my new life. - Julie M. Click - To View The Entire System Now
