NutriSystem Comfort Food Reviews
I tend to crave comfort foods at a time like this. Fortunately, I've got several NS foods on hand that are a healthful way of satisfying those cravings. I recommend the following NS foods:

  • Macaroni and Cheese
  • Chocolate Pudding
  • Hot Chocolate
  • Cappucino
  • Chicken Noodle Soup
  • Homestyle Chicken Noodles
  • Chocolate Shake

The chocolate beverages are all rich and satisfying. My favorite is the hot chocolate. I don't even normally drink hot chocolate, but I really enjoy this one.

The macaroni and cheese is the next best thing to the real thing. It's very easy to make, too, because all you have to do is add hot water.

I enjoy the chicken noodle soup. It doesn't taste like a diet food at all. I didn't care for the Homestyle Chicken and Noodles (too much broth for me), but my mom -- who isn't even on NutriSystem -- really likes it.

The chocolate pudding is much better than the vanilla pudding, in my opinion. It is rich, flavorful and has a good texture.

Smart Eating During Stressful Times
The important thing for anyone dealing with stressful situations while dieting is to eat plenty of healthy good carbs to keep your energy up, snack often to keep you blood sugar level, include some protein with each meal, and be sure to take your vitamins. You don't want to allow yourself to become run down and cause your health suffer.

My heart and prayers are with all the injured and lost, their families, and anyone else affected by today's tragedy.

Many of you have asked if there is a way to try NutriSystem Nourish without investing the initial $300 for 28 days of food. Well, I've got good news:

Several trial size packages of the NutriSystem Nourish plan are available:
