How Alice Took Control of Her Life With Nutrisystem

Here at The Journiest , we are always on the lookout for inspiring stories of people improving their lives. In our modern stressful daily routines, it can be very easy to let our weight get away from us. That’s why when we heard about Alice’s incredible story, we had to share it. It was inspirational to hear what is possible when you make a plan and stick with it:

I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) about 20 years ago. Over the next several years, I continued to gain weight always using PCOS as my crutch, saying “I can’t help it… I have PCOS.” I tried several fad diets along the way but not surprisingly, none of them worked.

I then thought about my mom and her struggles with weight her entire life and all the medical problems she also incurred from PCOS and knew this was going to be me very soon. I continued into work and sat in the young, thin receptionist’s chair to cover her vacation day, and as I leaned back the chair broke. That was “the moment.”

I knew I had to do something. I had seen several ads for Nutrisystem and decided to try it, just to cross it off the list of diets that didn’t work for me and my PCOS. When I signed up I put next to my 180 pound goal weight, “I want to love me at 40.”

Like many people, Alice struggled with knowing exactly where to start. There are far too many crash diets and unsafe starvation plans floating around, and it can be very intimidating to get started. That’s why Nutrisystem has worked so hard to make everything simple. They deliver incredible, heat and eat meals right to your door so that all you have to do is stick to the program and lose weight safely.

You won’t have to live in the gym, because Nutrisystem recommends just a few short exercises per week to keep you on track. They also have a team of counselors on call when you need them to help keep you on track and moving toward your weight loss goal. Alice gave them a try and her results were life changing.

On my 40th birthday I had not only met my goal weight, but was down to 150 pounds!* I have learned SO much about my eating habits with Nutrisystem, not only for losing weight but also maintaining it. I am so much more outgoing than I have been in the past 20 years and love being involved in everything I can… I’ve even proudly re-joined my softball team! Best of all, I DO love me at 40!!

My mom last saw me in September before she passed away and told me how proud she was that I was taking control of my weight to control my health issues. I remember this every day because she really was my inspiration for my weight loss.
