Susan B. Lost 50 Lbs.*

“I feel better now in my 40s than I did in my 20s!”

I have been the chronic yo-yo dieter, being anywhere from 30 to 50 pounds overweight. My moment of truth came in the summer of 2011, when a relative posted an unflattering picture of me on social media, for all to see. I was so embarrassed. But I knew that my sedentary, deadline-driven job, coupled with lack of sleep, did no favors for my waistline and I found myself at an all-time low.

I was working hard and was exhausted every day. I was so tired, I would literally close my eyes and just want to fall asleep at my desk by the afternoon.

“At that point, I knew something had to change.”

I didn’t want to feel this way every day for the rest of my life. I really wanted my energy back. I wanted to feel healthy again. I wanted to wear cute clothes. I wanted to feel pretty. So I placed my first Nutrisystem order.

After not putting my all into it, I decided to dedicate myself—I was going make the time to take care of myself.

“And Nutrisystem worked, in many ways.”

I had always wanted to be a runner and, thanks to my newfound love of exercise, I completed several 5Ks and a 10K. In the process, I also reached my goal of 50 pounds lost.* I feel better now in my 40s than I did in my 20s. I have so much energy, too—I have more energy for my family, my job, and the things I love to do in life! It’s very exciting!
