HAS ANYONE TRIED NUTRI SYSTEM? NOTHING WORKS THIS IS MY LAST RESORT

Hugga I'm not offended,  that is just how I talk.    I didn't mean to offend you either girl so if I did please know that i'm just typing and have no malicious intent in my words at all.

I can't go for that sort of last resort  cause I don't like a giggly body.

Yeah they tear down muscle faster than I can build them up and it's not worth it for me.   I use to do the protein train all the time, but I found out just how hard it is on muscle.   JamesH may have been crazy but he had some great info.

girl - James H was da truth!!!!

I just got back on the Wagon Plan this week - 1.5lbs gone already......

You know,  I know everyone thought he was a quack but he told the truth on so much stuff and that science was sound.   

I spent a many hours reading that stuff.    I still balance also I don't do it as faithfully as I use to, but I know there is a lot of truth in it.

Lee,

When you workout, do you do mostly aerobic activity or muscle bulding?  I know its an obvious/dumb question, but sometimes when doing the thing, sometimes we get stuck on the obvious. 

NutriSytem does work.  All it is, really is just giving you regular foods at the "correct" portion sizes, for the most part.  Not much different than Weigh****chers. 

As for gain / lose, hell, there are ppl who gain / gain.  :) 

 

Hey D

Well I do a bit of everything.  You know i'm a X'er for sho.   But I have been focusing on the running thing lately and i'm just spinning my wheels.   I did go down in size but I'm still pretty big.

I tried WW so many darn times and it does nothing for me.   I just had a bunch of test run to check all my levels and thyroid and nothing.  

It's like I super glued a number on the scale and can't make it move.  

Okay, Lee.

So if ur concentrating on running lately, and still,uh, spinning ur wheels (nice play on words)..then its gotta be ur intake. 

I haven't read the other responses, so this may have been mentioned already.  

You may have to bring down ur carb intake a bit  to maybe "shock" your body a little.  Its grown conditioned to the rigorous workouts and, kinda working like a machine at this point. 

I mean cutting out all carbs would definitely take your weight down, but I don't know if you would really want to KEEP them out of your regiment, because the body needs some. 

Just my .02 cents worth. 

 

I have tried low carb, no carb, high carb, med carb, super carb, you name it.    I am gonna see if this will help cause nothing seems to work.

The running helped me to go down in body size so I'm gonna do this nutrisystem and keep up the running just not as much and see what happens.

Have I told you lately that I  you ~smooches~

You may have madd issues ~roflmao~ but you are very supportive

Never tried it.  I work next door to a Jenny Craig and one of the reps guaranteed that she could design a plan for me to lose 20 pounds.  I explained my "condition" to her and she still says it would work for me.  If she EVER puts it in writing, I will sign up.  So far, she hasn't done that.  lol.

Lee, we both suffer with edema.  Personally, I don't think you should waste your time or money.

Thanks Cookie

I'm just so frustrated and I just feel like I work my ass off for such small results.   I need to try something anything to help me get this weight off. 

The edema sucks so bad cause I can be almost thin one day and fat the next.     LOL
