Getting Fit with NutriSystem Week 12 #NSNation

Week number twelve has just flown by. Its hard to believe, but even after all this time, I am still enjoying the NutriSystem Program. Any diet is easy for the first few weeks, but after awhile, they can get monotonous and its easy to lose your resolve. With NutriSystem, that hasn't been a problem for me. Their extensive menu options and simple to follow program make it easy to forget I'm even on a diet.  My active fitness and diet regimen have also encouraged my children to eat healthier and become more active. In addition to our daily outings, we have been spending some time on the Wii fit each night. And although I can't get my Wii fit age below 45 (LOL), the Wii agrees with NutriSystem that my weight loss goals are being achieved at a normal, healthy pace, all thanks to NutriSystem.

This week, I only went down from 136.2 to an even 136. But that's okay, because I am still rockin' my skinny jeans again. Now I have even more reason to celebrate, because my trial has been extended for another two months! I am hoping to get down to my high school weight of 125.  And I finally found my NutriBear (my toddler had hidden him under her bed), which is my trophy for losing my first ten pounds! I am so excited to have achieved this landmark goal! Hopefully, I'll be able to continue on this healthy path. Although I have to say, its going to get more challenging with our restaurant opening this weekend... 

This week for my pick of the week, I wanted to share one of my favorite dinners. My family loves to order in Chinese every now and again, and it would have been hard to stick to my diet without the tasty Sweet and Sour Chicken. It has just as much flavor as the restaurant takeout, with half the calories and none of the MSG. "Who says you have to forfeit your top favorite Chinese take-out choice? Not with our spin on the menu staple with all the flavor minus the guilt! Tender chunks of chicken combine with a medley of carrots, peppers, water chestnuts and a touch of pineapple atop a bed of long grain brown rice finished with the familiar sweet and sour sauce you've come to crave."
