Hello, I just re-joined JC. I have been on both JC & NS. MUCH prefer the food on JC. The programs work if you stick to them. However, JC is pretty expensive. You can cut costs by using some of your own stuff - breakfast cereal, skim milk, ns syrup, nf salad dressing... But I think I actually lose better if I use their stuff. Good luck.
I just started on nutrisystem and loving it. Strange but I'm not feeling deprived at all. The food is edible and I love the easy structure. I haven't weighed in yet but I' will update my progress. Im doing 30 minutes on the treadmill everyday as well. It's costly but I was spending the same at the regular grocery store
