nutrisystem food...does anyone want it?
I was on their program for over a year and lost 90 pounds. Had to stop as I used my severence pay money (when I was let go from a job I had for over 18 years) and it ran out. If no one else would like to get it for the cost of shipping I would. Please let me know how much.
Thanks

I would donate them to a food bank.
There are so many people - even in your own community, wherever you live - you would be shocked - these are virtually invisible people who are going hungry or malnourished. If you call any local church or social service agency, I'll bet they can give you a referral. Our local organization is called the Open Pantry and they run out of food 2-3 weeks into every month. They are DESPERATE for food.
Recently I went through my pantry and kitchen cupboards and came up with about 6 bags full of stuff I will never eat now.
And one more thing. You can't worry about whether or not these people really "deserve" the food. I used to coordinate a food + toy donation program for my former employer and some beneficiaries would come to us wanting cash instead of food + toys, so they could buy drugs or whatever. We told them they had to accept the food + toys or nothing. When you give food, you're pretty much guaranteed that their families are going to get some benefit from it. Not to say they won't re-sell the food, but food doesn't have the same street value as drugs.

I for one would never do that to anyone. I think I am the only one *****sponded that HAS NOT HAD WLS. So this food would help me alot. I think that Kathy is very generous and a very kind lady in asking if anyone here would like the food. Also, here in my county food pantries only give you 3 days worth of food if your a family of one.That's not quite a bag full. More if you are a family of 2+.
Just for the record I don't drive, and I live about 16 miles out in the country. So getting this food would help me in the long run because it costs me a lot of $$$ to get into town. I also buy my groceries for the month. $85 dollars worth. Which is mostly veggies and fruit. Maybe a package or two of chicken, turkey, fish, Try to make that stretch when you haven't had any WLS.
