I am receiving 12 weeks of the Nutrisystem® Uniquely Yours plan for myself and my husband in return for our honest review. All opinions are 100% our own.
My husband, Neal, and I just concluded our 11th week on the Nutrisystem program. If you want to catch up on our past weekly updates, you can find them all here.
Does Nutrisystem food taste good?
After having spent 11 weeks on the Nutrisystem Program I will tell you the truth about Nutrisystem Food.
I am not exaggerating when I tell you that I love Nutrisystem meals and snacks. Seriously, they taste amazing. I look forward to each and every meal and snack throughout my day. Even the shakes are delish!
Now, this is not to say that I fall in love with everything on the Nutrisystem menu. Sure there have been items that I tried that I didn’t enjoy. That is life. Sometimes you try things you don’t like. Everyone has their tastes and preferences when it comes to food.
The beauty of the Uniquely Yours plan is that you get to hand pick which items you would like to order. Just like at a restaurant, you look at the menu and make your selections.
My husband and I have similar tastes when it comes to food, and since we like to eat meals together we order the same things. Even though during the week we eat breakfast and lunch separately, we still like eating the same meals (we are weird like that).

If you are thinking about starting the Nutrisystem program I would recommend it wholeheartedly. Plain and simply, it works. It makes meal-planning for weight loss so much easier since your food is shipped right to your front door.
I would also recommend opting for the Uniquely Yours Nutrisystem Plan. With the Uniquely Yours plan you get to customize your menu from all 150+ Nutrisystem Menu items, including both frozen and non-frozen items. If you inspect the menu items on our list of favorites you will find that most of our faves are frozen items.
Progress towards our weight loss goals
12-Week Nutrisystem Program Weight Loss Goals:
- Jaclyn: 25 pounds
- Neal: 20 pounds
The weigh-in:
- Jaclyn: – 1.8 lbs this week
- Neal: -1 lbs this week
- -2.8 pounds this week combined!
Total progress toward our goal after 11 weeks on Nutrisystem:
- Jaclyn: 24.8 down, .2 to go
- Neal: 25.8 down, 0 to go
Neal lost another pound this week, bringing his total weight loss in the past 11 weeks to over 25 pounds! With 1 week to go, any more weight he losses now is just the icing on the cake (or should I say the icing on the Nutrisystem cupcake?)!
My 1.8 pound loss pushed me to just .2 pounds away from the goal that I set for 12 weeks on the Nutrisystem Program. As long as I lose at least .2 pounds this week I will make the goal I set out for myself at the start of the program! I totally got this!
I will be back with another update next week to let you know how we weighed in and if I was able to meet my 12 week goal.
Week 12, here we come!

I see Marie Osmond on 4th for Nutrisystem. I wondered if the food had any taste to it. I would love to get Nutrisystem D for me and Nutrisystem for my daughter. We both need to lose weight. Thanks for the review.
The food looks awesome and would love to try it. I’m Canadian so I don’t know their prices. I couldn’t afford it anyway. I’m a single income disability person, so that’s about it
So much food to eat!
Nutrisystem meals look delicious. I’ve been really thinking about trying it, so it’s nice to follow your journey.
Have you tried their shakes? Says it has probiotics. And thanks for the review!
Hi Kim! I have tried the TurboShakes and the NutriCrush shakes, which are both amazing! I haven’t tried the new FreshStart shakes with probiotics yet though, sorry!
I tried it twice. Once before Marie O. became spokesperson & once after, believing that the food had to have gotten better if she was eating it. It hadn’t!! It was awful. I think you could have eaten the box it came in & it would have tasted about the same. Also, I had problems with quitting the program & having them stop it in a timely manner (as in many other complaints I’ve heard.) I really have trouble believing that she could have actually eaten that ‘food.’ Maybe that’s why she lost weight, she probably wasn’t able to actually eat much of it. If you have really eaten their ‘food,’ & truthfully say that you like it, I’m curious about what you think of ‘real’ food.
I’m wondering if you can “doctor” it up with seasoning. I really want to try I it but this is my biggest fear.
That is just what I am afraid of.
food not worth the price.
My hubby has been on it for the past 6 weeks, and to me it was a huge disappointment from when I used it years ago, then it was pretty good. But now, when I look at it, it is totally DEPLORABLE! They brag about the pizza (cardboard, catsup, and nearly dry cheese) for example. There is a lot of planning, weighing, and deprivation. But if you want pop corn, you got it. Some “meals” are no more than a dry granola bar. They were three days late with the second automatic order, and was only 1/3 full. Only 13 dinners for an entire month. Everything was in sealed baggies, a lot of something called BBQ chicken…which turns out to be a mush of sauce and….I guess bit of chicken. It’s awful. It definitely not worth the money. Shame on them.
