Janet Jackson has signed up as the new spokesperson for NutriSystem weight loss program. In a little over a month on the program, she lost 10 pounds. She appears in the Success advertisements, saying, “I am so impressed by both the thought and the nutritional science behind the program. There are millions of women like me who want to be successful but don’t have the tools to do it on their own. I hope I can help inspire them.”
Pros: The pre-package meals can be stored at room temperature and is great for people on the go.
Cons: The meals have been sometimes referred to as “bland and tasteless,” a surefire reason to return to old, unhealthy eating habits. The program is an online plan so there’s no real support system or weigh-ins by a counselor.
