How Does Nutrisystem Food Taste? Is it Really Pretty Good?

Of all of the questions that I get about the Nutrisystem diet, questions about the food and it's taste are the most common. People want to know if you really get to eat burgers and pizza. (And if so, are they decent?) They want to know if the foods have the texture of cardboard or sport any weird after tastes that are typical of diet food. And they want to know if there are enough decent options so that there will be enough foods for them to enjoy and rotate so that they don't get bored. I'll address these concerns in the following article.

The Nutrisystem Foods That Really Do Taste Good: In general, there are a decent amount of the food choices that are quite good. Some are so good that I would eat them even if I were not on a diet. Most of the foods that I consider the best fall into the breakfast, dinner, and snack / dessert categories. For example, the muffins, pancakes, scones, biscotti and oatmeal are all really nice and good tasting options for breakfast. The flat bread pizza, ravioli, macaroni and cheese, pepper steak, fajitas, and tacos are pretty decent in the dinner category. And almost any of the cookies, almost all of the cakes, and the chocolate bars (that look and taste a lot like a candy bar) are delicious enough that I would reach for them even if I were not on a weight loss plan.

Now of course, you must suspect that in order for these comfort foods to be allowed into a diet plan, they are going to have to be modified in some way. For example, the cake isn't dripping in sugary frosting and the pizza isn't loaded with a lot of greasy cheese, but I don't know very many diets (and low carbohydrate ones at that) which would even allow you to think about these options, much less allow you to eat them up to five times per day. And yes, the portions are smaller, but you get used to this and if they weren't, do you really think you'd lose as much weight as many people do?

If You Really Want The Best Tasting Nutrisystem Foods, Check Out The Nutrisystem Select Line: Nutrisystem Select is a new line that describes itself as "gourmet, fresh frozen meals." I'm not sure how they make this distinction because most of the new 39 additional meals are frozen, but they are extremely good. I've heard them described as restaurant quality and I would agree with that on many, but not all, of them. Most of the additions are in the dinner category where they'd added some yummy choices like shrimp Alfredo, steak with portabella mushrooms, bar b que beef, and panini style sandwiches. This line is a touch more expensive (around $30 more) but I suspect most folks will think that it is worth it because it does offer more elaborate and fancy choices that you will likely come to appreciate when you are eating the food five times per day.

Speaking of the frequency with which you are eating the food, there is also a Nutrisystem flex program that allows you to take two days off each week. This allows you to still diet but to also be able to take a break and eat normally and to eat out with your family if you wish for a couple of days a week. This program is also cheaper because you don't need as much food. It runs just a little over $200 and many people feel it's a good way to sort of ease into the program. Many people eventually go to the full time regular program after they see the results and come to realize that this plan really isn't as bad or as restrictive as they had feared.

The Pizza Diet - Can You Really Lose Weight Eating Pizza?

When most people begin thinking about dieting, they envision the foods they think they must give up if they want to lose weight, and they feel deprived before they ever begin. On the contrary, a diet does not have to be painful be successful. A matter of fact, some people have found weight-loss success with the pizza diet. Fast food sub sandwiches have helped people lose a considerable amount of weight, and the pizza diet has also helped those striving to lose weight drop significant pounds. Who would have thought it was possible to lose weight and still enjoy pizza? It is possible to lose weight while enjoying a favorite main course dish, every day of the week!

Calorie and Portion Control

The pizza diet has helped countless people lose weight, but portion and calorie control is the real key to success. You can enjoy the foods you love and still lose weight. Choose your favorite cheese and vegetable or lean meat pizza, and eat one or two average-size slices for lunch and dinner. You can also enjoy healthy negative-calorie foods as snacks as well as with meals. These are the foods that burn more calories when eaten than they actually contain. Some negative-calorie vegetables are spinach, asparagus, zucchini, carrots, and lettuce. A few negative-calorie fruits are watermelon, oranges, pineapple, and cantaloupe. Many of these foods such as spinach, eggplant, and pineapple can be enjoyed on a pizza! Order extra if you want. They will not spoil your diet.

Healthy Pizza Diet Breakfast Ideas

It is possible to have too much of a good thing, and pizza is not recommended for breakfast when on the pizza diet. For breakfast enjoy a fruit salad containing chunks of watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, and pineapple. In addition, choose an 8-ounce container of low-fat low-calorie yogurt.

Alternately, make a low-calorie fruit and yogurt smoothie by blending 1/2 cup of low-fat yogurt, 1/2 cup of crushed ice, 1/2 cup of low-calorie juice, and 1/2 cup of fresh fruit of your choice. Smoothies are incredibly filling, and this combination will help you make it to lunchtime. They are ideal when embarking on almost any weight-loss diet.

Healthy Pizza Diet Lunch Ideas

For lunch eat an average-size slice of pizza topped with a blend of gorgonzola, parmesan, mozzarella, and goat cheese, and choose any number of vegetables as toppings. In addition, enjoy a freshly tossed salad containing lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers, and opt for a low-fat low-calorie salad dressing instead of high-fat high-calorie varieties.

If salad is not your side dish of choice, choose a bowl of low-calorie high-vitamin vegetable soup, or enjoy grilled vegetables with the pizza. For best results, alternate pizza toppings and side dishes to keep the diet interesting and satisfying. Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to be hungry to lose weight.

Healthy Pizza Diet Dinner Ideas

When dinner time rolls around, choose pizza that is not only topped with vegetables, but choose pizza also topped with lean chicken breast. Protein is essential to a healthy diet, and no diet should be without a significant source of protein that includes lean meat, beans, or tofu.

Enjoy another salad that includes fresh sliced mushrooms, green peppers, kalamata olives, and onions. Top it with your favorite low-fat low-calorie dressing, and toss on a few low-fat croutons for added texture and appeal. You do not have to cut out every food you enjoy on the pizza diet. Moderation will help you achieve your weight goal while you enjoy the foods you love, and best of all you will not go hungry while on this diet.

Beverage Ideas While on the Pizza Diet

Cutout the high-calorie beverages, and instead of drinking empty calories, opt for water with a hint of lemon or lime. Unsweetened green tea is also an excellent choice, and it can be sweetened with a small amount of natural fruit juice. Whenever possible, fill up on water in between healthy snacks and meals, and the pizza diet will work for you!
