I Am Joining The Nutrisystem Nation #nsnation #spon

November 25, 2012 by Johnetta Dawson

Nutrisystem Nation ~

I am so excited. I just got word that in January, I will be joining Dawn on Nutrisystem. I can’t wait.

For most of my life, I have been skinny. In high school I did gain some weight, but I lost it as soon as I got out. Then I had my kids. That put 37 pounds on me that I could not seem to lose. Then about 3 1/2 years ago, I quit smoking and I gained another 34 pounds that I couldn’t seem to lose. I now wear plus size clothing and it sometimes seems like I am never going to lose this weight.

I don’t know if any of you do this but since I have gained weight I avoid a camera like the plague. I hated getting my picture taken before I gained this weight, but now I avoid them at all costs. I would love to have a family picture done, but all I picture is how big I will look in it, so I don’t do it.

I can’t wait to start Nutrisystem. I have hope that I will lose this weight once and for all. My friend Dawn {the owner of Cheap is the New Classy} is already on this system and she has lost 13 lbs. already. I can’t wait to join her. When I start it, I will write weekly blog posts about their food and how much weight I have lost. I’m hoping it will be a lot.

So starting January, I hope to lose at least 50 lbs. I want to be someone that my kids and my husband can be proud of. Hopefully that will be the last anyone will see of this big old butt. ๐Ÿ˜€

Want to lose weight and get healthy on Nutrisystem? Join today by calling 1-888-853-4689 or by visiting http://www.nutrisystem.com/nsblog.

    I wish you all the best on losing the weight.. I feel you on gaining it though.. I did the same after having my son, and will be attempting to quit smoking at the beginning of the year so will probably gain more. I hope Nutrisystem works for you. I have heard good things about it. Good luck!

      Thank you. I know how hard it is to stop smoking. I was smoking a carton a week when I quit. After the first week, it is a piece of cake. Good luck!

    Congrats. I wish I was a part of this. I had my baby last year and avoid the camera too. I think this program would work for me but because of finances I just can’t do it.
