Are you looking for a weight loss program that really works? The Nutrisystem Turbo13 Weight Loss Program has a LOT of benefits, featured here. #ad

I’m actually quite familiar with Nutrisystem, because my old roommate is one of their success stories.

And this post might make you hungry! The thing is, my daily experience with Nutrisystem was over 10 years ago. It’s 2018 right now and their Turbo13 is a new program for this year, and their best program ever! It’s a common misconception that since I’m naturally slim, that I don’t have to worry about what I eat. However, I really do, especially when considering my health and my family’s health history, after losing my father so young. Also, I have a tiny frame and that will always be the case, BUT, if I do gain weight, I just look lumpy! I know it doesn’t sound like a terrible problem to have, and it isn’t, but the point is – we all know our own goals, set points, health, etc. So I always do a ton of research when health is concerned.

How does it work? You can lose up to 13 lbs. and 7 inches overall in your first month with Turbo13.* The program offers a variety of different meal plans to choose from. And each meal plan has new features to help you lose weight fast, including new menu options anda new NuMi® app for faster and easier tracking. You also get delicious shakes to supercharge your weight loss.

You will receive a new and improved Turbo Takeoff kit that will jumpstart your weight loss. So much good stuff to start. You see, Turbo Takeoff is your first week on the program, and it’s specially designed to deliver fast weight loss results.

With Turbo Takeoff, you’ll start with a specially selected Nutrisystem® breakfast.

You’ll start with a Nutrisystem® breakfast.

Then you’ll have their specially selected lunch and dinner, plus a NutriCurb® bar and a TurboShake™ (for women) or Nutri-Pro™ shake (for men).

Here’s a little more info on the bars and shakes:
● NEW NutriCurb® bars curb cravings and contain probiotics to shrink your belly
● NEW Nutri-Pro™ shakes are specially formulated to provide the nutrients men need
● TurboShakes™ for women are packed with protein and fiber to help keep you fuller, longer

Once you have completed your first week with Turbo Takeoff, you’ll move on to follow your Nutrisystem meal plan until you reach your weight loss goal. That brings me to the top 5 benefits of the Nutrisystem Turbo13 Weight Loss Program:

1 – Safe, effective and HEALTHY weight loss, with no fads, no gimmicks. There is no counting, no measuring, and no weigh-ins. You follow an easy-to-follow plan.

2 – You can improve your health and boost your energy. (really important benefits)

3 – You can shrink your belly and burn fat/put your body in fat burning mode.

4 – The food is easy-to-prepare and has perfectly portioned meals that will keep you full and satisfied!

5 – You can customize your menu with the foods you love! It’s all your favorite foods – made healthier.

And if those benefits aren’t impressive enough, which they certainly are, it’s so rewarding to read the success stories:

1 – In “How I Learned to Love Myself & Lost 100 Pounds*”, you can read about Erin Banks’ success story!

2 – I also loved “How This Woman Lost 90 Pounds on Nutrisystem*” which is Denise C’s success story.

3 – And I also loved Teresa B’s success story here.

4 – Don’t you love when skeptics discover the awesomeness of something, like in this article?

5 – And last but not least, reviews! Like this one, and these three blog reviews: Emily Reviews 1, Emily Reviews 2, Parenting in Progress.

Here’s some more important info:

*Average weight loss in a study was 11.6 lbs and 8 inches.
If you order any of their 4-week meal plans, you will receive NEW NutriCurb® bars and NEW Nutri-Pro™ shakes (for men) or TurboShakes™ for womenFREE with your first order!

Tis the season to try new weight loss programs to see results. Maybe Turbo13 by Nutrisystem is the best weight loss meal plan for you. I loved reading about the benefits and also the wonderful reviews and success stories. Enjoy!

Share Your Prostate Cancer Story for the TRUE Campaign

This post has been sponsored by the Prostate Cancer Foundation. All thoughts and ideas are 100% my own.

Share your prostate cancer story for the TRUE Campaign. Prostate Cancer has affected my family, and it's time for us to share our stories and make this cancer more known. #ad #TrueCampaign

Like with most things, prostate cancer wasn’t on my radar until it very much was.

My father-in-law received a prostate cancer diagnosis, and he has three sons. I think often about my husband’s risk factors and how little we actually know about the disease. I also have a son, so that’s three generations of loved ones I’d like to help support and protect indefinitely. When I think of Valentine’s Day, I think of it as more than just a day. I think of it as a season. Honestly, that’s the best way to get through a frigid February in New England! I think about my loved ones, and all of the ways I can brighten their days or help share knowledge about important topics like this one. This Valentine’s season?

I want to share my story, and encourage others to do the same.

The Prostate Cancer Foundation is launching TRUE – to celebrate and honor caregivers of prostate cancer patients. This includes spouses, partners, nurses, doctors, children, friends, and more. There’s a stigma associated with a prostate cancer diagnosis, as well as a general lack of knowledge about the disease, for a variety of reasons. This lack of general knowledge about prostate cancer also extends to the many challenges that patients and their caregivers face. Prostate cancer caregivers are often unsupported and under acknowledged, and the Prostate Cancer Foundation would like to change this by sharing TRUE inspirational stories of the people who live TRUE love everyday by providing love and care to men.

With a family history of this form of cancer, I’m more aware than ever. 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed in their lifetime, and that could be your loved one. That’s why PCF’s TRUE campaign is important. Share your personal caregiving story on their website to help raise awareness of this disease. That way, PCF can honor the patient and the caregiver during the month of February. Also, one winner will receive a curated care package from Kristen Bell! AND, all will receive a gift.

When I was growing up, I lost my father pretty young, and then my mom remarried. I had SEVEN grandparents. That’s why as a parent now, I’m extra-sensitive about the health of my parents, in-laws, husband and kids. And myself, of course!

So now it’s time to hear from you! Tell your story of how you were personally impacted by prostate cancer. Share your story on the TRUE campaign’s website to be honored during the month of February. And remember – one winner will receive a curated care package from Kristen Bell, and all will receive a gift! Also, make sure you read all the amazing stories at pcf.org/TRUE. This is an amazing way to shed light on the disease, and work to make a better world for all of us.
