We have written about Nutrisystem previously, but a lot has happened since then and the company has made some changes that are meant to increase the effectiveness of the diet while also making it more accessible and appealing to a wider audience. So this time out, we’ll take a look at how Nutrisystem measures up in 2012 with its new menus and particularly its new celebrity endorser, Janet Jackson.
The menus have been upgraded to include 30 percent fresh frozen meals. This is a good thing from a quality perspective because it raises the quality of the overall product. The downside of course is that customers need to have a freezer and enough space in that freezer to store the meals. Luckily, they don’t actually take up much space, but you still need it before you take delivery.
It makes a lot of common sense to read through several of the top Nutrisystem reviews for instance. You really want to get a good feel for the program before committing yourself and that is probably the best way that you can do that. Simply relying on what you see and hear in the TV ads is not enough because these are only designed to sell you the product, not to give you an in-depth overview of what it is all about.
But maybe some of the reviews won’t be as up to date as you’d like, so its necessary to know what else might affect you should you decide to sign up with this program. Another change is the introduction of a protein shake as part of the daily menu. While this is a good thing from a diet perspective, it is not so good if you don’t like protein shakes! Some people have gotten around the bland taste by adding some flavoring, but its something you either love or you hate.
If you need some weight loss information, you can still get hold of diet experts and counselors via the website or on the phone. Customer support is still very good and as long as you work with them, they’ll be happy to work with you.
They still have that thing where you are automatically included in the Auto-delivery program, so if you want to cancel, you have to do it by phone in good time before the next shipment is due. If you get a discount and cancel before the second month, you have to pay the discount back and you could also get charged the shipping cost. So if you only intend doing this for a single month (and that really isn’t long enough to see the best results), you better not choose to take any special offers, because it will cost you more in the long run!
Overall, the diet program offered by Nutrisystem is better than before in terns of meal quality and service and to increase the appeal even more, the price is no more now than it was a few years ago. There are almost continuous special offers and deals that customers can take advantage of.
