daily achievements

Well, I really never have been big on frying food (hate the mess--ha).  I haven't been cooking anything very good for my family lately and I really didn't have anything else to do with the chicken strips. . .so I ended up frying them last night for my family.  Boy, the smell of good ole southern fried chicken.  I'm proud to say I didn't even eat a crumb!!!!!!!! I can't even believe it myself!!  NS is so totally amazing to me!  I am so satisfied on this diet, that I can actually resist things that always led to failure on other diets!

Now, my next achievement is. . .I told my m-in-law that I'm on NS.  Of course I already knew her reaction was going to be that I'm wasting her hard working son's money.  She had to tell me how ALL I have to do is "cut back" on my eating and I can lose.  If it was that easy, then why doesn't she lose her weight?  I love it when people who can't lose weight, try to give advice on how to lose!  Anyhow, this time, I don't care what anyone thinks I SHOULD be doing.  I'm sticking to what is working!

We have to ignore these people who really don't know wht they're talking about. We need to be like the horses who wore blinders and keep our focus on the prize.

Keep up the good work. I thought my husband would say the same thing until one night I had had it and said I was joining Weight Watchers and he said to me I would rather have you join Nutrisystem. Of course I jumped on that and signed up. I have lost approx 10 pounds in 3 weeks. Not as fast as I would like it to be but I am not unhappy because I am losing.

NS works... I've lost almost 45 pounds. It's great. Nothing else has ever done it for me. I feel like it's money well spent just for the improvement in self-image and self confidence!

So just smile and stick with it!

It was my husband's mother who said this. My husband is really happy that I am doing NS and is hoping to have a skinny wife! hehe He wants to do it too, but we just can't afford $600 a month plus groceries for the kids right now. . .so he said he'd wait until I lost mine.

he can do this right now also just limit him to under 1500 calories a day with regular food.if he eats a couple of candy bars then he gets no food that day.1500 will let him be very choosy on what he eats to attain them.it's simple 1500 a day and he will drop the weight like a hot potato!nutrisystem food is the best choice because it's loaded with fiber and protein but to lose weight it's calories in and calories out.tv dinners are very similar only don't get the hungry man and fried chicjken-you know use your head-no fried stuff-lots of salads pears apples oatmeal for breakfast.i've been off ns for a month and a half and have actually lost a few more because i limit my cals to 1500.it's more than enough food for him and he'll be rockin.cheers and you look fantastic!

I have heard all of those "all you have to do's" from my mom. I think she may just come around because she is seeing the results. I would love to say, "I told you so!!!" Keep it up. You have Brad cheering you on and I have Dusty in my cheering section. PLUS we have all of the amazing people on NS with us encouraging us everyday.

I so understand where you are right now.... I have also been fixing meals for my daughter and husband and I am not even phased by the food! Absolutely love NS!

My dad is sounding very similar to your mother-in-law... I have been trying to talk him into trying it but he just doesn't seem to think that he can. He has had not 1, not 2 but THREE heart attacks and you would think that he would try anything to get rid of the gut and stay healthy to stay around longer....

I have found that I have to make up my mind not to worry about what anyone says and just know that I am doing what is best for me.
