It’s been 38 weeks on Nutrisystem for myself and 34 weeks for Kaytlin.
I went to start my weigh in post for this week and realized that last weeks never posted… oops! So, I will just update both weeks.
Because we have been running and watching our weight climb, Kaytlin and I decided to find other ways to measure our success. We have quickly realized that sometimes the scale lies!!!!
We found a home body fat % calculator online to start tracking other “off scale” victories.
According to this calculator, in three weeks I have lost 5 lbs of body fat.
According to my scale at home, I’ve lost 1… so I’ve gained 4 lbs of muscle in three weeks… woo hooo!!!! It’s strange to see my calf measurement go up, but my legs are looking so much more tone and the muscles are definitely more defined.
I’ve had a couple of other off scale victories as well. I am finally down another pant size. I had to go shopping while we were camping because my shorts just wouldn’t stay put anymore. When we got back to the hotel I promptly tossed my big shorts in the trash can. I’m never going there again!
I also “went shopping” in my skinny drawer. I have noticed my shirts getting bigger and bigger but I just couldn’t justify buying new ones. Yesterday I put on a t-shirt from that drawer and it fit! I haven’t worn that shirt since 2005… six years ago and before Emma and Ethan!
So, let’s get to the business at hand… I know you are curious how we did…
Last week I lost .4 lbs
This week I gained 1.2 lbs
That puts me at 30.4 lbs in 38 weeks

Keep it up girls. Doing great!
You are doing awesome.. I like the comment that you went shopping in your “skinny” drawer!
I have always wanted to try this nutrisystem program but am afraid that it would not work for me. I think I am going to just “join” and cross my finger. – (emscout9 at Hotmail dot com)
After reading how well you both are doing, I’m going to suggest Nutrisystem to my sister. I’m so proud of her that she just celebrated one year of not smoking on July 20th! Unfortunately she has gained weight in the process and has tried other diets without success. Nutrisystem sounds like the healthier way to lose weight. Thanks for posting your results and CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU! YOU”RE BOTH AN INSPIRATION FOR OTHERS! 🙂
You guys are doing AWESOME!! What a motivation! I want to lose about 40lbs, and seeing this, makes me now what to try Nutrisystem!
I just tried some of their food sold in supermarket and it tasted better than I thought it would– (emscout9 at Hotmail dot com)
