The Cost Of Nutrisystem’s Different Plans

 I get a lot of questions about the specifics of the pricing on the Nutrisystem diet. People want to know how much it costs when you factor in everything like the food, counseling, extras, etc.  I will go over all aspects of this to give you an idea of what you are looking at (in terms of monthly costs) in the following article.

There’s No Other Costs To Nutrisystem Other Than The Food: First off, I think that it’s important to understand that you are not charged for anything other than the foods that you are actually going to consume. They don’t charge you any membership or counseling costs.  Everything that you would need – from the journals, to the counseling to the education to the support is totally included with your (free) membership.  All you really need to complete the whole program is to just buy the food, which when you really break it down is not all that expensive.

Pricing On The Nutrisystem Women’s Programs: Probably the most popular program is the women’s basic. This is basically a month’s worth of food where you eat five small meals each day.  You can either allow them to ship you a sampling of the most popular foods or you can chose your own. The cost is going to be the same no matter which you chose.  This basic program runs about $ 299 before any coupons or shipping costs.

Now, there are other plans for women within this diet.  They have a vegetarian option, a diabetic option, a senior option, and a “flex option.”  Everything other than the “flex” is similarly priced, meaning it weighs in at $ 299 for the entire month.  The “flex” is actually cheaper because it’s only a part time program where you get to take two days each week off.  This one only costs around $ 230 but this is mostly due to the fact that you buying less meals.

The most expensive women’s option is the “select” menu which consists of frozen foods that are quite tasty.  The premium on this is about $ 60 more, but some people feel that this is a very small price to pay since you are still getting restaurant quality and healthful food that will help you lose weight for much less than what you would spend on groceries or eating out. (Try comparing this to “celebrity” type diets that deliver similar frozen foods to your door.  You’ll find that this is still much cheaper even with paying the premium.)  And, sometimes, they put the select line on sale and charge the same for it as the other programs.  You can check http://celebrity-diet-review.com/ to see if this special is running.

Pricing On The Men’s Nutrisystem Programs: The men’s programs are slightly more expensive, however they do offer the same options meaning that they too offer the basic, diabetic, vegetarian, senior, select, and flex.  You’re looking at about $ 329 for most of these men’s programs.  As with the women’s, the flex is cheaper since you are buying fewer foods (about $ 234 per month.)  Again, the frozen select option is around $ 360.

Nutrisystem A La Carte Pricing:  You can buy the foods individually but they are generally much more expensive this way.  Snacks are generally the cheapest running around .90 to $ 2.00 each, depending on what you select.  Dinners are the most expensive running from $ 4.00 to $ 6.00 (for the deluxe.)  I understand that it can be tempting to try to foods this way, but I’d recommend using the flex plan instead as you are getting more food for your money.  I always advocate making use of coupons as this really can make a substantial difference.

Top 5 FAQs about Healthy Meal Plans

Most dieters have questions about healthy meal plans. Eating a well balanced diet for weight loss can be confusing because so many foods seem healthy when they really are detrimental to your waistline and your health. And some dieters have very specific questions about what should or should not be included in a healthy weight loss plan.

So in this article, we answer the top five most commonly asked questions about meal plans and healthy eating—questions that are more specific than the general “how to be healthy”-type of inquiries.

Q. Is it possible to make gluten free meatloaf? Can it be included in a healthy diet?

A. You can make a yummy gluten-free meatloaf by either eliminating or substituting the usual breadcrumbs or oatmeal for a wheat-free option. There are several recipes for this kind of meatloaf on our website, so you can do a search for the recipe that sounds best to you. The most common type of GF meatloaf uses GF breadcrumbs, which are usually made from rice and can be purchased at most health food stores. If meatloaf is prepared with all-natural beef or bison and doesn’t contain gluten, it can be a good addition to your healthy eating plan.

Q. Is wheat bread fattening?

A. You should avoid wheat bread and all wheat products if possible. On the Diet Solution program, we advocate eating only bread made from sprouted grains, such as Ezekiel 4:9 bread, and only that in moderation. Most of the wheat bread on the market is highly processed and contains additives, preservatives, and sugar—all of which are destructive to your weight loss diet. In addition, if you have digestive issues or bloating, you may have gluten or wheat intolerance. If you steer clear of wheat products for a while and your symptoms improve, you probably have sensitivity to wheat and should avoid it in your diet as much as possible.

Q. What are some Omega 3 benefits?

A. If there’s one supplement you should take while dieting, it’s Omega 3 fatty acids. You can also increase your intake by eating flaxseed oil, raw walnuts, whole organic eggs, certain types of fish, and green leafy vegetables. Increasing your supply of Omega 3s can help lower bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol, lower your blood pressure, and act as an anticoagulant. In addition, Omega 3s may help decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, though research is still being conducted in that field.

Q. What are the dangers of high fructose corn syrup?

A. High fructose corn syrup (HFC) can wreak havoc on your weight loss program. HFCs have been linked to a significant risk of increased weight gain and obesity (in one Princeton study, rats fed with HFCs gained weight 300% more quickly than rats fed fructose). HFCs have been associated with an increased probability of developing type-2 diabetes, hypertension, and elevated bad cholesterol levels in the bloodstream. HFCs are also difficult for your liver to process, which can lead to liver damage and other problems. Finally, HFCs have been found to contain high levels of mercury. This means they should be avoided, especially by pregnant women and young children.

Q. Name one reason why I should go organic?

A. Your health. Foods that are grown or raised without the use of pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics are better for your long term (and short term) health than foods that contain these troubling substances in abundance. Not only do you support small farms and local growers by choosing an organic way of living, but you improve the quality of the food you eat dramatically. Going organic is one of the most positive changes you can make to your healthy lifestyle.

Exercise is important for a healthy lifestyle. For  boys it is vital in order to lose or maintain weight.

Looking For Weight Loss Plans For Teens – Get Diet Plans You’ll Love

Are you overweight? If you’re a teen who doesn’t fit the celebrity-inspired body shape, your life can be sheer misery. Your desperate to find a weight loss plan which works.

Your first step before you jump on any weight loss plans for teens is to make sure that you have the basics down and you’ve tried them to the best of your abilities. That means taking regular and adequate exercise for your ability and fitness levels — increasing in frequency and level as your fitness improves. It also means cutting out fast foods and junk foods and eating a diet heavy in fresh fruits and vegetables and fiber.

Also, make sure that any between meal snacking is avoided, because this is a surefire way to pile on the pounds and ruin all your good work. Drinking at least a liter and a half of water per day is also the basics of weight loss and should be actively encouraged. If you have tried these basics and you’re still struggling to lose weight, then one of the weight loss plans for teens might just be for you.

Whichever plan you opt for there are certain points that you should make sure the plan either includes or doesn’t include. Often people say avoid fad diets because any weight loss that is achieved will reappear once the user goes back to their every day eating plans. As much as this is true, often times people cannot agree on what is considered a fad diet. So you will no doubt get contradictions about which group a particularly popular diet falls into.

Pretty much though, it is a matter of using your common sense and judging for yourself whether a diet program is for you. For instance judge the kind of foods that a program is asking you to eat, if those foods are overly restrictive, then you might want to look further at the program and see if it is for you.

Some weight loss plans never include the taking of regular exercise, which for anyone, whether they are looking to lose weight or not, is important. For a growing teen regular exercise is crucial, so if there is no reference to taking exercise, again ask yourself if this program would really suit you and your needs.

Weight loss plans for teens are always a good idea because finding a successful program will not only help to lose the weight, but it will also foster confidence and a high self-esteem in a growing and maturing teen.

Diet to Go Meal Plans Review – Are These Packaged Diet Meals Worth the Cost?

Ever feel completely lost when you enter a grocery store? Despite entering through those glass doors armed with a list of foods you need, the shuffling in and out of the aisles and testing the firmness of fruits and vegetables can be downright bewildering – especially if you are trying to go on a diet. Low fat or no fat? How many carbohydrates are in a sweet potato? Is it okay if I eat whole wheat pasta instead of white pasta on this diet plan?

There’s no denying that starting a serious diet definitely does take a lot of research and knowledge. Sadly, for a lot of us, we simply don’t have the time to sit down with a 500 page book and learn about what foods will help us burn what and from where. For people like myself who are busy and constantly ‘on the go’, choosing to invest in a “Diet-To-Go” diet may be the answer to your weight-loss prayers.

What Is Diet-To-Go?

It’s exactly what it sounds like – it’s like a diet ‘take out’. Fresh foods are prepared off-site (away from your home) and delivered to your door with the promise of being made with the highest quality healthy ingredients. The “Diet-To-Go” diet includes many other extra items, such as condiments, juices and fruit.

Are there Different Menus I can Choose From?

Yes. There are a few different menus, like the “Low Fat Diet Meal plan”, the “Low Fat Vegetarian Meals” and the “Low Carb Diet Meal Plan”. There’s even a meal plan that’s been created for diabetics.

How Much can I Expect to Spend on this Meal Plan?

The “Diet-To-Go” meal plans start from just over $ 80USD a week up to $ 150USD a week, though some meal plans are for 5 days rather than 7 days and some include breakfast whereas others do not. Be sure to read the fine print so you know that you are ordering just what you want.

Who Benefits from this Meal Plan?

The one thing that may be a bit lacking when it comes to “Diet-To-Go” is that the diet itself does not teach you how to take foods home from the market and prepare them in a nutritional way (i.e. to use olive oil rather than butter for cooking, for instance). Portion control can also be lost on anyone who is not paying attention to the portions that are provided directly through the meal plan. Some additional research on weight loss should be done by anyone planning to lose weight on this plan.

Exercise, which is another important component in both weight loss and the living of a healthier lifestyle is not mentioned in great depth in this meal plan. At minimum, if you do choose a “Diet-To-Go” meal plan, plan for a brisk 30 minute walk each and every day to enjoy optimal weight loss.

Diet-to-Go provides a nourishing, delicious, diet delivery service for individuals to help them lose weight and feel great! Only the highest quality ingredients are used in our freshly prepared diet meals that adhere to the dietary guidelines of all major health organizations. The meals are conveniently delivered to you and we provide everything you need, including all the little extras like fruit, juices, side items and condiments, so you can actually enjoy losing weight easily.

The Danger of Crash Diets – Why Crazy Diet Plans May Harm You

Often people remember to lose weight only when they have a very short period of time to do so, like before a reunion or a wedding. This leads people to try crash diets: weight loss programs which make you eat very little in order to generate a fast and furious weight loss. While this may be just what you want to achieve, know that these crazy diets may cause you long term health damage and even disrupt your long term weight loss efforts.

Why can crash diets actually be bad for your long term weight loss efforts?

The reason is metabolic slowdown. When you cut down your calorie intake drastically, your body reacts by burning less and less calories. This is an internal survival mechanism which has developed over the course of our existence since the time when our forefathers lived in the wild and food was scarce. Our body doesn’t realize that you’re dieting. It believes that you’re starving and in fact have no choice in the matter.

What your body does to protect you when you use crash diets is to slow down your metabolism so that you burn fewer and fewer calories each day. This means that you need to eat fewer and fewer calories to continue losing weight since you’re burning a lot less as well. It also means that once you stop following this crash diet and begin eating normally again, that you may gain all the weight back and more.

This wouldn’t have happened if you followed a more sensible diet plan with a more gradual weight loss.

In addition, going on one of these low calorie ultra-strict crazy diet plans may cause you health damage in the form of fatigue, skin damage, irritability, hair loss, and simply make you look tired, unenergetic, and even ill. This may not be the kind of look you wish to have when you get to your event.

Therefore, I recommend sticking to a more sensible weight loss plan. You can still lose weight fast, just not crazy-fast. You will look better and be able to more easily maintain your new weight for many years to come.

To read how you can start to lose as much as 9 lbs. in 11 days and keep it off, visit this webpage:

1200 Calorie Meal Plans Weight Loss – 1200 Calorie Diet Menu and Meal Plan

1200 Calorie Meal Plans Weight Loss

A 1200 calorie diet is nutritionally adequate for most of the people for a healthy, safe and permanent weight loss. Starving your body with fewer calories will slow down your metabolism and consequently using up of the calories by the body will also get decreased. This will result in a tired and emaciated body and also the weight loss will not be as much as expected because the calories are still stacked up inside the body. 1200 Calorie Meal Plans Weight Loss

Following a daily diet of 1200 calories is shown to be nutrition rich to support a healthy body and also brings about the calorie deficit which eventually leads to weight loss. Of course, the actual calories that should be taken depends on a lot of factors such as age, gender, metabolic rate, body size and other medical conditions to name a few. 1200 calorie diet plan fits most of the people on average but it is necessary to confirm with a doctor or dietician before starting with the diet.

How to choose the best 1200 calorie diet menu?

The diet plan should be chosen in such a way that it strikes a proper balance of the macronutrients. The macronutrients include proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The calories that come from the macronutrients should be ideally distributed as follows: 15% of the calories should come from proteins, 55% of the calories should come from carbohydrates, 30% of the calories should come from fats and only less than 10% of the total calories should come from saturated forms of food.

When the diet plan is composed of healthy, nutritious and wholesome food it will keep your food cravings in check and you will feel full for longer. Moreover there will not be any compromise to your health when you follow a diet that satisfies all the above conditions. A diet is followed to make us healthy, supple, strong and slim. Any proper diet should work to achieve all of these. Therefore make sure that you take nutritious food whose calories add up to 1200 or so.

Sample 1200 diet plans:

Below are two diet plans whose total calorific value comes around 1200. From this you can get an idea of how to construct your diet. 1200 Calorie Meal Plans Weight Loss

Sample 1:

Breakfast

One whole wheat muffin with a spoon of peanut butter and half a banana.

Mid-Morning Snack

An apple and few almonds.

Lunch

2 slices of whole wheat bread; 2 oz. low sodium turkey breast; 1 oz. cheese; a lettuce, an orange, a tomato and a spoon of mustard.

Mid-afternoon snack

8 oz. low fat yoghurt

Dinner

3 oz. skinless grilled, baked or boiled chicken breast.

A cup of cooked broccoli and 2/3 of a cup of brown rice.

Snack

A cup of milk and two fat free fig cookies

Sample 2:

Breakfast

A hard boiled egg, 2 slices of whole wheat bread smeared thinly with butter and a large slice of watermelon.

Lunch

100gms of baked potato and baked beans and 100gms of reduce fat cottage cheese.

Snack

Muesli meal replacement bars.

Dinner

Pasta salad made with olive oil. Wash it down with tinned tuna in brine.

Typically any 1200 calorie diet plan can be broken down into the following proportions: The breakfast is the most important meal of the day and makes up 300 calories of the entire 1200 calories. The mid-morning snack adds up to 100 calories, lunch to 300 calories and the mid-afternoon snack to 50 calories. Finally the dinner contributes to 450 calories of the total. Any nutrition rich diet plan that follows this breakdown can achieve good results in terms of weight loss. Snacks can be taken at any time of the day where you feel the need to snack. But timing is important for breakfast. Make sure that you finish you breakfast within an hour of the time you woke up at. For the rest of the day, timing is up to you and you can divide the calories as you want among the meals, but make sure that the total calories don’t exceed 1200.

Last but not least, wash down you meals with lots of water. Adequate amount of water is absolutely essential for maintaining the metabolism and for the healthy functioning of the body. Keeping your body well hydrated is an important factor that constitutes weight loss. Make it as a habit to drink at least eight glasses of water each day. It may look difficult at first, but once you start making conscious efforts it will no longer seem as hard as it was at first.

A word of caution:

Before you kick start on a diet, please catch up with your doctor or dietician and get expert advice on the meal plan that you have formulated. This is especially important for pregnant or breast feeding women. You don’t want to follow some diet and weaken you body, so always ask for the doctor’s opinions and then jump into your diet plan. 1200 Calorie Meal Plans Weight Loss
