Sorry, didn’t realize this was a public forum when I wrote the above or I wouldn’t have written it. I’ve been doing well on Nutrisystem and it’s working for me. Lost 23 lbs in 12 weeks. The food is tasty and the people on the phone are encouraging. Looking forward to my next bear!

I have lost over 20 lbs and was waiting for Nutribear20. Today in the mail I got another red 10 lb bear. Makes me want to eat a bag of chips!!!! The packing slip says it should be a 20 bear. Will it be another 2 weeks before the correct one is sent out?
Hello Robin,
Congratulations on your weight loss so far! We are happy to hear that you are doing well but completely understand the disappointment in getting the wrong bear. One of our team members will reach out soon to assist you in getting the right bear!

Nutrisystem works. I've lost over 70 lbs since January. Problem is... a couple of months or so ago they changed shipping services from UPS to FedEx. I've had problems ever since. I've lost my frozen food twice now because FedEx can't get it to me with any kind of predictability. And... if FedEx doesn't feel like making the effort then they just drop it off at the post office where it may set for a day or two before anybody realized that it is there. Great went to terrible just like that. I'm recommending to all of my friends and family to avoid Nutrisystem like the plague until they can correct their issues. Doesn't sound like they are interested in doing that. Terrible business decision.

Ive struggled with losing weight for a number of years. I looked at several diet systems but finally settled on trying Nutrisystem because it seemed to be the closest to what would fit me. I stuck to the plan for 16 weeks and only "cheated" once or twice. However, even when I cheated I kept Nutrisystem in mind and made better choices. I lost 38 lbs by the end of those 16 weeks and have lost another 10 or 12 on my own so far. On Feb 27, 2017 I wore sz 16/18 pants and today I wear sz 8/10!!! That's smaller than when I met my husband 17 years ago!! Im aiming to be down to 160 by Christmas or at least by my 1 yr Nutrisystem Anniversary on Feb 27, 2018! I couldn't have gotten this far without your system and councilors! Thank you!!

I called Nutrisystem to cancel my plan. The rep was very polite and took my cancellation request. I asked to have my confirmation emailed to me. Everything went smoothly. To my surprise I came home today to a soaking wet package from Nutrisystem with my dry food. I immediately called Nutrisystem and they told me that I am responsible for the wet package. I am responsible, not FedEx. I personally called FedEx and they are picking up the package tomorrow. Nutrisystem then told me that my frozen food delivery would be tomorrow. I told them that I had cancelled my plan. They told me I hadn't cancelled in time.
When I asked why the rep hadn't let me know that when I called to cancel they told me that was my responsibility. I called FedEx and cancelled the frozen food delivery Nutrisystem told me that couldn't be done. They just didn't want to take responsibility for the shipment. I am very dissatisfied with Nutrisystem and after reading other comments I see that I am not alone.

They auto ship at a higher rate and charge you for free items you get as a gift in initial order. Be very careful to read the fine print!!!! They will not work with you when your auto shipment you don't want arrives early. The portions are so small it's no wonder you lose weight. You basically walk around hungry all the time. Just eat your regular diet but cut portion size to feed a 2 year old and results should compare. I am not a happy customer. Make sure you go on their website to check everything. Otherwise their emails may go right to the junk folder and you too can wind up spending 325.98 for a new month!

Was not clear on the difference between the core and basic. After talking with a representative at Nutrisystem I cleared some things, Gabriel at extension ** help me understand the difference. He advised that I would receive a coupon for my time and being disappointed. Had a good conversation. Appreciate his help. It’s a little confusing to the consumer like me who has use Nutrisystem on and off since 2008, I have always lost weight with Nutrisystem, very good product but some of the food I don’t care for. I wish you had the option on the basic and the core to swap out food but I understand policy a new procedures. I look forward to losing more weight.

I went online and customized my second order. I did save the changes, and I was surprised when I got the exact same order in the mail as my first one. I did speak to someone but I am very unhappy that I am required to pay the return shipping on these items that I did not order. I would like a refund for that, and I am going to consider stopping Nutrisystem after this. This is the second time I have tried it. I stopped the first time because the food was not good - this was about 7 years ago. The food has improved, I am just not happy with your computer system or return policy.

I have no problem with most of counselors, but customer service never notified me, until I called two weeks after, that my second payment was marked "no such acct"... I happened to call two weeks later with a question and make another order... My card had been changed, broken and new card relayed different exp. date.

Nutrisystem responded to my complaint, and has offered to refund my $125 cancellation fee.
Original Review: Oct. 23, 2017
After months of watching the Nutrisystem commercials, my husband decided to try it. I placed the order on Sept 27 thinking it was a one-time charge to see if it was something he would be able to stick with. I did not realize at the time that I was being set up for an automatic charge to my debit card each month. I was surprised to log in to my bank accounting this morning, and see a charge of $376.98. I called Nutrisystem to let them know that I did not order a second shipment, only to be told I was set up for the monthly auto charge. I told them that had I known from the beginning that I was going to be set up, I would have never ordered to begin with.
How can someone sign up for something that you are not sure it's going to work to begin with? My husband did not like the meals. It's been almost a month since our order, and I still have over 3 weeks left of food on my fridge. The customer service rep did not seem to care and told me that I will be charged an additional $125 cancellation charge to cancel. This was my first experience with Nutrisystem, and I will never purchase from them again. They are a ripoff and very deceiving. I should have read the reviews first before placing my order. Lesson has been learned. I asked to speak to a manager, and she said she was not able to have a manager come to the phone. Nutrisystem is a fraud, and they do not care about you. We will never do business with them again, and will not recommend to anyone. Very disappointed with this company.

After my posting on Consumer Affairs, Nutrisystem contacted me and resolved my issue with them. I will probably be a customer again on terms and timing which are agreeable with my own schedule. I have lost weight, so that is a positive.
Original Review: Oct. 17, 2017
I bought a month's order and tried it. The food is OK, but nothing you can't do for yourself in the supermarket. The surprise comes when a second month's order arrives about when you're about half-way through the first one. Try to send it back! You are told that you signed up for a minimum of two months, and if you send it back, it will cost you $125. And customer "service" is pretty nasty about it. It's in the very fine print that no one reads. So understand that to try this, you are in for over $600. They are conmen and I would not ever do business with them again.

I received my Turbo Take off food and so far the food is really good. The Nutrisystem Consumer Experience team reached out to me to follow up and make sure I received my shipment and to answer any questions that I had.
Original Review: Oct. 17, 2017
I ordered Nutrisystem and received the non-frozen foods and the frozen foods in two separate shipments which is what I anticipated and they both arrived in a timely manner. When I received the non frozen portion of the shipment I received 8 days worth of food. When I received the frozen portion of the shipment I received 10 days worth of food. I called customer service and the lady I spoke with couldn't even bring up my account information at first said that the turbo take off box, the first seven days worth of food was left out and that she would process that order for me. She didn't apologize and I received an order confirmation via email. Three days later it hasn't shipped out yet and I called and talked to another customer service rep and she said the order was still processing and had no solutions except that I should delay my shipment for next month since I haven't received all of my food yet. I'm pretty disappointed with my experience so far.

Although the food was good, the customer service was terrible. It took twice for me to call and speak to someone about changing my plan and it was still incorrect.

The website advertises $11.99/Day = $335.72 for 4 weeks (28 Days). Due to their new 4 Day flex meal plan they only ship 24 Days so the price is actually $13.99/day. That's an extra $47.96/Month in food you think you're getting. They need to change their site pricing.

Very upset with Nutrisystem. I have been on and off of Nutrisystem for years. I like the food and was very happy with the programs the way it was handled. In July I tried to cancel my order for a very important reason and I was told by a very rude rep that I could not, so I went ahead with the order. After that I delayed my order for thirteen weeks. I got an email stating that it was delayed till the month of December. Well, yesterday I received an order which was charged to my credit card without my knowledge. I am returning the foods that are not frozen.
I have notified my credit card company about this matter. They will be disputing the matter and so will I. This should have not been done without me knowing. Usually I get an email telling me that the amount would be taken out for the food. But I did not receive anything telling me this. If this matter is not taken care of I will contact an attorney. This was money taken out of my account that I was not aware of. Like I said, Nutrisystem has been a big part of my nutrition, because it did work for me. But not anymore. I am very disappointed in this company because of the way I was treated after being a fairly good customer through the years. Very, very disappointed! Hope the matter can be settled in a decent way!

A couple questions I'm wondering if there is any way to break up the payments into bi-weekly charges. I set up my plan for a mail came to 316$ and change. Which in my opinion is quite reasonable, I spend that and maybe more every 2 weeks on less than healthier food. Dropping that kind of cash on food I have never tried unsure of the quality and seeing mixed reviews on this site makes me even more hesitant. I also was unable to see a menu, I'm not really okay with spending another 20$ just to customize the menu. I see a few people complaining about the cancellation fees involved if you do this for 2 months after that you're clear to cancel? Or will you always be charged the 120$ to cancel regardless.

I have had multiple incidents with shipping problems. I receive frozen food and it's thawed. Non-frozen food that never shows up. They have always reshipped both packages but after this last time I've had enough and requested a refund. I called customer service and registered my complaint and they cancelled a replacement shipment then sent me to someone else (after waiting on hold) who cancelled future shipments and my account. She then sent me to someone to get my refund (which I was told would be "no problem at all".
I waited on hold again. Finally spoke to another lady and she indicated they could not provide a refund. That she would discuss my account with a supervisor and she would call me back. She never called back. Four days later I called customer service again and spoke to an incredibly rude man. He indicated my account had been reviewed by a supervisor and they were not going to provide a refund. I asked to speak to a supervisor and he told me there were none available. I asked him to have a supervisor call me and he said he couldn't do that that they could send a "courtesy shipment" and that was all. He said he had proof of delivery of my last shipment and I asked where it shipped at which time he became very rude and defensive. We went back and forth and I finally hung up on him.

Received an order with no reading material or any guidance. Was diligent about the meals and tries to do the system with common sense. No results after about 3 weeks, I mean NO results.

I have ordered Uniquely Yours plan with snacks with a month supply of turbo shakes that cost me $388 thinking that this was all I need but it's not. You have to also follow their powerfuel servings that's all in portion control which the sales rep failed to mention and they fail to mention on their tv ads and internet. Plus if you cancel you have pay $20 to ship the food back to them... Can you say this fraud...I can. Never again.

Recently I ordered a one month trial for my wife. The order totaled $336.98. She was not happy with the quality of the food so she asked me to cancel any further deliveries. I contacted the company and was told that since I was given a discount on the first month (which was unknown to me) I would be charged another $125.00 to cancel. I guess that since I did not continue with a second month they were now taking their discount back. To me that's a terrible way to penalize those that try the company. Very disappointed. Would not recommend this company based on my horrible experience.

I canceled my program on August 3rd. They gave me a 30% discount to take one last order which I agreed to do. They transferred me over to a gentleman who took care of this as well as canceling my account of all future shipments. Prior to terminating the call, I asked the gentleman if there was anything else I needed to do to make sure that I would not receive additional shipments. His response was no, and the order where I received my 30% discount would be the last order I would receive.
On October 2nd I received a voice mail from Nutrisystem notifying me of another shipment which had already left. I was obviously very angry. I told them to reverse the shipment. They said they could not but would issue me a RMA for the dried goods to return. They said they could not issue an RMA for the frozen goods. I told them I was not going to pay for any of it. I am going to accept the dried goods shipment and return it to them via the RMA they give me. I told them I would not accept the frozen goods shipment. I also told them that I was filing a complaint with you and would be processing a dispute with my credit card company. On October 3rd, I filed this dispute with my credit card company and they have issue a hold on the payment until the dispute is resolved. I believe Nutrisystem is running a scam.
UPDATED ON 10/24/2017: I am pleased with the final resolution; however, I am not pleased with the amount of time and effort it took get the issue resolved.

I ordered Nutrisystem last week. It arrived late Friday and I was not informed until late Saturday that it had arrived. So the entire frozen box was thawed and all the meat products were soft and spongy. Then, I immediately noticed that three of the four shake orders were not included (only 7 chocolate, not 14 and none of the vanilla). Okay, got online, discussed that glaringly obvious issue, new items coming. This morning, I went down to take an actual inventory. I have severe allergic reactions to foods, so this needed to be right. I ordered the custom order because of that issue.
Much to my surprise, NOT ONE OF THE DRY FOOD ITEMS WAS CORRECT!!! NOT ONE!!! It's like I received an order that belonged to someone else! I contacted the online chat and was told to make an inventory of only the number of items that were wrong (not the specific items). I was told that the warehouse would just substitute items that were out of stock. So then, what Ross was saying is that the entire order is out of stock??? So what? The warehouse staff just throw in a bunch of bars and call it a day? Seriously??? Who are you employing at this warehouse of yours?
So basically, I'll die if I eat items that were sent to me. Had I not looked closely, this could very well have happened! People order the custom order for reasons other than being overly picky! I shouldn't be expected to have to expose my medical history with a random customer service rep just to get my order correct! This is the worst "custom" service I think I've ever encountered!

I ordered the Uniquely Yours plan with the auto deliver option. ($339) for 18 days. The food was almost uniformly vile. Some was merely disgusting. I did lose weight primarily because I couldn't stand eating the food. When I went to cancel the second order they took back my 30% discount (that was buried in the terms and conditions) and charged me another $125.

Your staff has been wonderful, I am sick of evaluating them. I am so sick from these products. It is not the alcohol sugars or the fibers, all of which I have had many times. I am taking ** within 2 weeks of starting them, now added ** as well. The tomato bases were gut destroying, as well as the spicy products. The meatloaf was awful. I am half Italian and eat tomato products all the time and enjoy spicy food, just not yours. I would like to throw all of this away, but I have to get shipment 2 or spend more money. For a diabetic plan, there are a lot of carbs. I am living in the bathroom. I am at wit's end. I could add much more, but these are my biggest problems. I do not have a virus and don't know when I have been this nauseated. I dread more coming.
Your ads are deceptive. The 13 lbs is not real for anyone that isn't on the regular plan, and I tried to tell them that I am taking precautions not to have Type 2 diabetes and have a normal Hgb A1c. I somehow don't think this would change much of the food. I did not expect to have to go grocery shopping, never in the ads. The first thing I did was open the box and sort the food. The first counselor was rude, but she was the only one. I am sick of the minuscule eval after every call. Nothing evaluates the program, just the person and their delivery of the call and program, not the program itself. I would never do this program, again.

Honestly, I'm really disappointed. I called to cancel my account and I was told that I have to pay $150 fee. I found out I have hypothyroidism which is why I wasn't losing weight. It had nothing to do with the program. So why should I pay $150 fee for a product that will not solve my weight issue and requires ** prescription? I think that's a terrible thing to hold your customers to. I have spoken to a few customer service reps with the same response. I owe $150 for a product I don’t want. I wasn’t even aware that you have to order from them twice within 60 days! I will never recommend them to family or friends after this.
When I contacted Nutrisystem through Facebook, they made an “offer”. “We are not able to outright waive the fee for discontinuing early, but are able to offer an alternative. If you would like to make an A La Carte order of at least $200, we can waive the $150 fee. This way, you are getting foods for the price you pay. You can choose any of your favorites, including frozen foods. Please let us know if you would like to take advantage of this option. We would have to call out to you because we would have to place the order and discontinue the Auto-Delivery over the phone. If you would like to take advantage of the offer, please include a phone number and the best time to reach you. -The Nutrisystem Social Care Team” Why would I pay them $200 for food that won’t help me lose weight and that I don’t want? Absolute garbage.
Updated on 10/12/2017: I originally wrote my first review on Nutrisystem on 9/29. Nutrisystem responded saying they would look further into the matter & follow up with me. I haven't heard from the company since then. Nothing. I sent them a private message 10/4 and still no response from the Nutrisystem. I saw that my review is now being disputed by them. (And factual basis uncertain is now on my first review?!) They are able to call me, email me or reach out via Facebook & they haven't.
I have reached out previously with this company with no resolve, which is why I'm here, writing this. I'm upset with them not being more transparent with the set up of the auto-ship program & being forced to pay for their product, (which is 2 shipments in 60 days before you can officially cancel your account with them) even if the product doesn't benefit you, it doesn't matter. This is a horrible business practice. Nobody should be forced to pay for something that they don't want, EVER. I find this so disheartening. I refuse to have a factual basis uncertain on my review again.

I want to say that the Nutrisystem program worked for me. I lost 12 pounds in the first 6 weeks and am thrilled. The most important thing that I learned from the program was "how" to eat and "when" to eat (two things that I wasn't doing well prior to the program). But, it does become expensive after a time and our budget just does not stretch for this added expense. I will rejoin the program at a later date just to keep up with the progress. I encourage anyone struggling with excess weight to at least give the program a try (A friend encouraged me to join and I appreciate her support).

Received an email from them about 45% off for 4 weeks (28 days of meals). When I made the order it only gives meals for 24 days. Their price per day was $10.12 and they charged me $285 but was only going to send meal for 24 days. Also, the first week of order contain Pork/Ham product which is forbidden in my religion. After my order I called and found out that they don't send meal for 28 days although the advertisement says it is for 28 days and I got two different story from two different reps.
Bottomline was that they don't send meals for 28 days. I asked to replace Ham/Pork products and both reps refuse to do it until I receive the order and then request for replacement, One rep said that once I receive the order, I don't start my plan and call for replacement and once I receive the replacement then I start my plan. Most importantly, both reps were quick to cancel my order when I started asking questions. I don't know about the plan but I know for sure that their advertisement is false and extremely poor customer service.
Updated on 10/06/2017: Here is last response and they didn't care to respond because they know their business practice. Thank you for your response but question remains: 1. You already know that there are items in your turbo takeoff are prohibited in certain religion and you already know that the customer would not eat them, yet, you would not change it when shipping the item. 2. There is no flex meals - Ad specifically said that we will get meal for 28 days, $10.12/day and charged $280+ - It is that simple. 3. In your response you tried to confuse customer about flex meal but in reality, you were sending only 24 days of meal and instead of charging $240+, you are charging $280+. 4. There no such thin mentioned in your ad that customer will get 24 days of meal. It was "28 days of meal" with $10.12/day.
Please do not try to confuse people - Be honest and transparent. I humbly request that do not insult people's intelligence. We know that you are in a business to make money but be ethical in your practice, that's all I am asking. Thank you.

Two months ago I placed an order for a 30 day supply of Nutrisystem's Basic Weight Loss Package. I had spoken to a client who had experienced successful weight loss on the program and enjoyed the food. I decided to give it a try. I received their one month supply of meals and began following the regimen. The food wasn't bad and the simplicity of eating a meal that was nutritious and portion controlled helped me get back on the road to a more healthy lifestyle.
All along I had planned to limit my commitment to the one month supply. When I received an email stating that my next shipment would be arriving in a few days, I immediately placed a phone call to cancel my order. To my disappointment and dismay, the representative I spoke with was not the least bit empathic to my explanation that I intended to select the 30 day supply. She told me that there were two buttons to choose from on my initial order and I chose the one that stated "auto delivery". She was incorrect as there is only ONE button...
She suggested I speak with one of their a nutritionists about revising my order or accept the shipment, then cancel the account for the following month at no charge. I explained I hadn't even finished the 30 day supply in 45 days, why would I want another 30 day supply. She said it was their policy that because I had not cancelled within the first 14 days after my original shipment, I would have to pay a penalty fee of $125. WHAT! My anger was beyond words!
I don't recommend ordering online! Admittedly, I did not read their terms and conditions as carefully as I should have. I just had overall confidence in Nutrisystem and that they would put the consumer first. As it turns out, they made their profit on the initial order, plus a nice cancellation fee off me. However, their treatment has resulted in a lost customer, for good! So, beware of auto delivery unless you ensure you cancel before the 14 day trial period runs out. I was/ am SO disappointed by the lack of customer service and the representative that was so matter of fact. I have shared this story with my friend who was using Nutrisystem and others. This isn't a company I would recommend for a weight loss program.

My very first order... All chocolate items melted! (bars/pretzels/everything chocolate) Also my first order came WITHOUT directions. No printout of Lean 13 Diabetic women's print. Or tracking info. No reorder info. No grocery need supplement. NOT a good way to start!?!! Called a counselor... told to report choc melt to customer service for replacement- transferred to department which was closed! (Had to call back for phone # to call in am!) Other half of order (frozen foods) not able to tell me tracking number or when it would be delivered. For choosing the most expensive program my first impression is less than exciting. I would appreciate expediting my other order as well as important instructions on when to eat what? (Turbo shakes?? One time daily?? When? Is it a snack?)

I initially placed the order with Nutrisystem a little over month ago and got the food and tried it out. It was okay, initially. When the food came half of my frozen items were thawed out so I had to call for a replacement. Then after this month passed, I kept getting emails about a second order. I continued getting email after email about another order and I kept telling them to cancel it especially after the hurricane my area was flooded so I couldn't do anything with the food. My original order was already destroyed and now they were sending another one. I don't have enough money in bank account nor a place to put the food.
I tried calling a representative (their cancellation process is purposely difficult so people don't cancel) and explained my issue and they said they will cancel and transfer me but they hung up on me. Then I got an email that my order was shipped. So I called again, this time I again explained my story but the representative kept telling me that you have to buy $200 worth of food or else we will charge $125 and I told her I can't do anything with the food, I can't do anything with it. I asked for a manager but she told me they were in a meeting but she spoke to one and she claimed they said the same thing. In any case, I would expect a company like nutrisystem would be courteous to people affected by the hurricane but they only care that people buy their food.

On September 11, 2017, I took a bit from the Nutrisystem carrot cake. To my disgust and horror, I soon realized I was chewing on mold. It's not noticeable at first since it was a light fuzz covering one end (the end I bit into). Fortunately my taste buds work - and I felt a burning sensation at the back of my throat. I immediately notified Nutrisystem on their online chat line.
Needless to say, this is totally unsatisfactory. I have since located another person who received a moldy cake. People with mold allergies could be seriously hurt by consuming this product. I do not believe Nutrisystem intends to recall this product or warn others. As a follow-up, Nutrisystem offered me $20 and then $100. They don't seem to take this at all seriously nor do they appreciate the difference between just finding a moldy product and actually consuming it.

I have been a Nutrisystem member for several years and I can promise you this. "If you follow the plan, it works." The foods are pretty tasty and there is enough to eat. The ice cream desserts are really good, however, when you realize, what a proper serving size is, you realize why you gained weight in the first place. I would recommend Nutrisystem to anyone who wants to lose a small or large amount of weight. It is a healthy and disciplined way to reach your goal.

I've have been trying to get reimbursed $416.96 that was deducted on 8/22. It was unauthorized. I had canceled my subscription in June. When I spoke to someone in August, they said I told them to postpone until August. UNTRUE. Now, I'm told that they will not reimburse the entire money. WRONG. You WILL reimburse me.

I decided to try Nutrisystem during the time I'd be home after surgery, even though it's fairly expensive. I did it for 2 months. I lost ZERO pounds, not even 1/2 a pound. I know I did everything right and I did not cheat. I'm not even close to what would be considered obese. I only wanted to get about 15- 20 pounds off total. I received melted, crappy, smashed, flat, frozen items and some items that were out of their packages loose in the container (they did replace those) but, bottom line is when I called to cancel, I said because it did not work. I was never asked why or given any option for any kind of refund (as stated on TV). I was only asked if I wanted to talk to a weight loss consultant. I said NO! So blame me for that if you want but this system was a total crap waste of hard earned money for me. I would never do it again or any other system. I did re-order one breakfast item twice after cancelling that I can't match in the grocery.

My first shipment didn't include the Grocery & Tracker Guide for use after the first Turbo Takeoff Week. I had to initiate the chat feature 3 times, received email from the agent with info that I wasn't able to print and had to then request a written booklet be sent.

I enjoy just about all the entrees Nutrisystem has except for the ones that come with their own bread (pizza, flatbread pizza, pot pies). The bread is awful and has the consistency of cardboard. My overall experience has been great, losing a total of 30 lbs. I have recommended Nutrisystem to others but their complaint is always the upfront cost. I explain how breaking that cost down to daily cost per day that you're actually saving money on food as compared to buying food every day. This is the second time I used Nutrisystem and will not hesitate using it again if the need arises.

This program is not for everyone... Some people start losing weight right away but for some it's impossible. I discovered I had a hormonal imbalance after ordering the program. I understand that is not their fault. Doctor advised me that I will not be able to lose weight until I deal with this hormonal issue. But what I cannot understand and accept is that they punish you for trying to get out of the program. In less than a month I explained to them that the program was not working for me. And their response was that they were going to charge me $125 cancellation fee. I think this is outrageous. They have a money back warranty but it's only for 14 days. I was planning on continuing with the program after controlling my hormones but because of their action I will never ever want to deal with this company again.
Plus to tell you the truth... I was not thrill with the food. It's a bunch of junk food. Too many preservatives and unknown additives. I think it's more healthy if you cook your own food and control the portions. It's going to be much cheaper. Don't let them fool you. They know that there is a large amount of people that cancel the program after the first month but they want to get a big chunk of money at the beginning when you are excited about the program. I don't recommend this program to anyone.

Having missed the 14-day cancellation period I was being charged the $125 fee which I had saved on initial delivery. I was not very pleased with this. Today I received a call from Nutrisystem. They are refunding that $125. I told the gentleman that it just wasn't a good time to be spending this amount of money in Nutrisystem and then to owe $125 for cancellation was ridiculous. Anyway, they say they will refund the money. When I receive that refund I will have no problem increasing this rating further.

Very dissatisfied with cancellation fees. $125 ridiculous. They said it was due to the fact that I received free shipping on my first delivery. Total nonsense. The first delivery was almost $400 and so not worth it. I told the guy money did not permit me to continue at this time but I would give it a shot in the future. Not now. I guess it's better to be out $125 than over $400. So much for my financial concerns right now. Very angry!

I signed on to this program in May. After two deliveries, I decided to discontinue the program for two reasons, only one of which I'll discuss here. I phoned and spoke to one of the "counselors," who was very polite and professional. When I explained the two reasons for my decision, he asked me if he could cancel the account but also put a reminder on the account to check back with me in two months for possible renewal, to which I agreed. In response to one of the two reasons I explained, he offered to send me some replacement items, to which I also agreed. The replacement items were the snack bars, chocolate candy, and cookies, all of which had melted during shipping, due to the brutal heat. I thought that was fair.
A few days later, I received a small box, inside of which were some snack bars and the chocolate candy. The problem was that, this time the candy was more badly melted than the first shipment. In fact, I was so irritated that I put the packet of candy in a box, carefully packed it so that it would be protected, and sent it to Nutrisystem with a note. The candy had melted so that it was no longer individual pieces of candy. It was just one melted together disc of chocolate. My note asked, "Exactly how did you expect me to eat this?" I never heard a word of reply. Not an apology, and certainly not an offer to replace the congealed mess they sent me. I just decided to let it go and move on.
Last night, I came home from work to find two boxes of Nutrisystem food at my front gate! Oh, no! I cancelled this order, and of course the reasons I know without fail that they got my cancellation notification is the fact that they sent me the replacement of the snack bars and candy. Obviously, the person with whom I spoke never bothered to put in the cancellation, even after a long discussion about why I was cancelling, the least important of the two reasons being the melted goodies. Now I'm mad. I called last night to protest and was told that they "had no record" of my cancellation.
I don't believe that for one minute. I MIGHT have bought their denial that I had cancelled, were it not for the fact that it was the same conversation when I initially called to cancel that prompted the shipment of the replacement items (that were worse than the items they were supposed to replace). If they had that part of the conversation, they had both parts of the conversation. If they implemented one action item (shipping the replacement order), then they should have implemented the other part (cancelling further deliveries). If Nutrisystem thinks my credit card is their piggy bank, they best think again.

I ordered NutriSystem because they had a great promotion and a friend recommended it with a $30 coupon. So I decided to try it. Approximately 3 to 4 days into the Turbo week I felt weak, I starting losing sensation in my feet, I was super tired and I was strictly following the diet. I called a counselor who told me to stop Turbo Week immediately as it is not for people who do intense exercise. I exercise 8 to 10 times per week including intense boot camp classes 6 days a week. I was told to add more protein and more calories. I had to spend so much more on groceries to compensate for what was missing in NutriSystem that it wasn't worth it. Not only that but after 3 weeks I did not lose one pound.
Hey I gave a try it did not work, I called to cancel. You are not able to cancel on their website or by email, it took 5 calls to get through. The customer service rep was very rude. I received a charge to my account for $125 cancellation fee. I called the company to have this reversed. They refused. I then asked if they could give me store credit in the amount because I can't understand losing $400 total on a system that does not even work. She was extremely rude, and said they didn't owe me anything because I got a discount from my friend and a discount on delivery.
Well okay I can pay for delivery but I shouldn't have to reimburse a $30 coupon or pay a $125 cancellation fee. I was very disappointed with how unprofessional the customer service rep was. I do not recommend NutriSystem. False Advertising - Not for everyone. You Do Not Lose Weight. Makes you sick and weak. Two of my chocolate muffins had mold in them, one blueberry muffin tasted moldy.

The food gets old quick. It all tastes the same. Would order food that wasn't pasta and always get pasta. Could never get through to customer service. Lost very little weight and I stuck to it perfectly. It's expensive and you will have to spend more money on all the extra things they wanted you to eat. I thought it sucked and had to stop because I just couldn't eat their awful food anymore.
I did better dieting on my own. I lost ten lbs on it then lost thirty lbs doing it myself. Eating a low fat and low carb diet spending half of what they charged. Learn to eat healthy on your own and walk. You will do better. Learn little tricks when it comes to eating on your own like cutting the crust off of bread. Use a half slice of cheese on a sandwich. Use fat free salad dressing as a dip, use bowls instead of holding onto a bag when snacking. Use a tiny bit of a butter substitute on things. Only use half a bun when eating a burger. You can hold it from the bottom.
There are so many ways to cut out carbs and fat and eat food you like. If you want pasta fill up a small bowl. If you want pizza pull off half the cheese and use a napkin and pat it down to absorb extra fat. There are so many ways to turn your own food into lower fat and carbs. Learn to read labels. You can use it to get started but dont rely on it for months. I have a much wider selection of food I eat now. I went from a size 12 to a 6 doing it myself. I found all new foods I liked and stuck to portion control. Walk a little and you will lose weight. I also bring my own salad dressing to restaurants.

Just to let you know what I like and what I don't like: I do like the frozen foods in particular (except the pizzas and the wraps). Of the dry variety, I am not a fan of cookies but like the bars. On your lunch menu, I won't order the food in the little cans with the pull lids because I have trouble opening them, due to arthritis in my hands. (I am 80 years of age.) As to CS: the few times, I called, I had mixed experiences. Two of the individuals were very nice and helpful. However, the first call that I made was answered by a grumpy, not very friendly person. Overall, I like Nutrisystem's concept.
Hi Ingrid,
Thank you for the kind and honest review. We love to hear the good but also the not-so-good feedback. We are happy to hear that you are liking some of the foods. We wish you continued success!

Everyone with whom I spoke at Nutrisystem over several weeks were polite and well trained including their counselors. OTOH, I was very disappointed in Nutrisystem. I provided them with detailed, easy-to-follow, Excel Spreadsheets for feedback and to prove I followed their plan exactly. I rated each of their foods on my taste test scale of 1-10 and noted their Weight Watchers' point values yadda yadda yadda... I lost 4# the first "strict-intake" Turbo Takeoff week and nothing the second week following their plan religiously. The food was not great = understatement. It was NOT like their TV & online advertising or most of the photos on the food packages. Even my husband commented on Nutrisystem shortcomings as he saw 'em. His favorite word for describing their pre-packaged food was "cardboard."
It is very EXPENSIVE... especially in light of what you do and do not get. You do get good telephone support. You do NOT get very much tasty food which makes it psychologically more difficult to adhere to their diet. Side Note: I do not enjoy cooking and so the pre-packaged meals appealed to me. I am returning to Weight Watchers which I followed for three years with success AND eating everyday foods I enjoyed. i.e. Most Lean Cuisines are more appetizing and better tasting than most of the Nutrisystem foods I received. Nutrisystem reply to my cancellation and "courtesy email feedback" sounded canned, impersonal and I certainly did not think they were taking my feedback seriously or truly appreciative of my efforts on the diet AND feedback provided. DISAPPOINTING.

Contacting counselors at NutriSystem have helped me in understanding the program to successfully lose weight while active on the program.
Original Review: Aug. 24, 2017
I appreciate receiving the email and especially the directions for following the Nutrisystem program. I understand I am supposed to have 3PF, 1SC, 4 vegetables, and 4 entrees (breakfast, lunch, and dinner followed with a snack 2-3 hours later). Getting started on the program was difficult. When placing my order I asked the individual assisting me to please not send any items containing peanuts or peanut butter. I am not allergic to peanuts or peanut butter but they do bring on terrible migraines. When I received the order 7 NutriCrush PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE BARS were included. I called and was told replacements would be sent. I received replacement bars, Fudge Graham bars, one week later just as I was beginning my second week without hardly losing any weight and didn't fully understand the pfs/sc.
Since discussing this with one of the counselors, who was very helpful, I now understand the pfs and sc, but, I don't understand when to have the fudge graham bars (replacement bars for the Nutricrush peanut butter bars and I don't know when to have the chocolate Turbo shakes which I love). Any assistance you can provide me will be greatly appreciated.

I have been using Nutrisystem to lose a few pounds on and off for years. I have no problem with their non-frozen meals. But last time I ordered I decided to get over 20 frozen breakfasts and lunches. They taste like cardboard, no kidding! I tried salsa, Tabasco, mustard but still yuck! I had 15 left in my freezer and I was going to throw them out. I called CS at Nutrisystem and asked if I could get a refund or credit if I sent the remaining 15 back, NOPE! They should stand behind their food, even if it is perishable. They lost my business!

At no time did I sign up for auto ship. You guys automatically sign someone up for auto ship without their knowledge. I saw no checkbox to ask if I wanted auto ship nor did I check the box. Very unethical practice as the consumer has no idea this has been initiated then you ship items out and expect them to pay based on your terms and conditions. If a consumer doesn't sign up for auto ship why should they have to honor it? I didn't order this last order. Nor am I gong to keep it. Then when you ship them the items that you signed them up for you want to charge them $125 cancellation fee and a return label... ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
I have contact American Express and informed them of what you have done. You are blocked from any further business with me or deducting money from my account.

It has been eight days (six days after my credit card was charged in full) and my order for the frozen portion has not even been shipped yet. And now since it is already Wednesday, I expect that I will not receive my order until the following Monday, an additional five days.

I decided to try the Nutrisystem weight loss program and on my 3rd week in felt that it was not for me. I hardly lost any weight even though I followed it to the T. I contacted them prior to having the next month's order shipped out and a nasty person said they will charge me $125 because I did not give 90 days notice. This is a scam forcing people to buy from them for 90 days even though you are not satisfied. I am not a consumer who allows rip off companies to take advantage of me. I contacted my bank and blocked their ability to get funds out of my account. I informed the nasty person that I was going to do that and asked for a supervisor to come to the phone, but of course that did not happen. So, good luck to anyone who wants to deal with this rip off company. Shame on them for the lack of customer service they provide. Just another company who makes money their God.

I started with 161.6 pounds on July 1, 2017 and this morning I weigh 151.0. I lost 10.6 pounds in 39 days. This includes cheating by eating out occasionally and at time I crave a low carb Carl’s burger and Arby’s sandwich. Steak and lobster at Sizzler, etc. I Started my morning walk twice around a circle at Almansor Park, Alhambra just two weeks ago and I slimmed from size 36 pants to 34. I used to wear Large polo shirts and now Medium. My neck size used to be 17 and now its is 15 ½.
Most significantly is my use of insulin as I am diabetic and have been for the last 10 years. I have spent more than $8,000 in a weight loss program for diabetes to lower my A1c and Nutrisystem finally did it for me. I used to inject myself 45 units of Lantus insulin. Last night I injected myself with just 2 units and my blood sugar has not increased in the morning. Tonight, I will be insulin free.
But of significance is that I also save over $400 by not eating out anymore. Eating out $800 less Nutrisystem $400. AND I NEVER HAVE TO COOK! Since I don’t cook anyway, this program really works for me. Even my wife who is a Registered Dietitian is now convinced that this program is working for me (she even eats some of my dinners when she comes home at night hungry!!). For people who are skeptical about trying Nutrisystem, Walmart sells a 7 day package for about $54.00. People who are committed to their health and well being should at least try it.

This is where they get you. I would not recommend to anyone. We are now stuck paying nearly $1,000 for groceries next month that we don't even want.

The good thing about this program is that your portion control is done for you with the right amount of nutrition and calories and you know what to eat for each meal. The food actually isn't bad. Some things are better than others but I did find the salt content to be high. On another positive note, the counselors are very helpful or as helpful as they can be. They can't lose the weight for you! The disappointing part is that I have been on this program for 3 months and I have only lost 5 pounds. I have adhered to the program every step of the way with absolutely NO CHEATING! In the beginning I was limited to my exercise due to a foot injury but that is under control and I am doing daily water aerobics or brisk hour walks. I am allowed 1200 calories a day which I have rarely reached. The counselors tell me I am not eating enough.
I am a veggie eater and I pile my plate with fresh veggies along with my Nutrisystem entree. They (Nutrisystem) do not count calories for veggies (but I do) so in my mind, I am reaching the 1200 calories a day. I drink the 64 oz. a day of water. I have read reviews on the Nutrisystem site, however I could not find a place to write one! I do feel that their website leaves a lot to be desired. Not easy to find anything other than what you can purchase and promoting their program. They promote a 13 pound loss in one month. I didn't really expect that to happen but 5 pounds in 3 months is a disappointment. Is it too much salt? There is definitely fiber! The advertisement and the reviews indicate positive results from those that can write a review but sadly it hasn't worked for me and I really stuck to it. A good amount of sacrifice and discipline and expense for such little result.
Hi Iris,

It is ridiculous that I have to jump through hoops to get a Daily Tracker just because I now order by ala carte. I am still on the program and continue to log all of my food, but now I have to call or chat to get a booklet each month.
Hi Cynthia,

I don't believe that I understood the food choices when I ordered this. The information about the diet and for my first order was too basic on the website. I was very very disappointed with the 'dry food' option and the calorie count is not realistic. I feel the need to eat 'real food' on top of the simple dry unsatisfying foods. I am also disappointed to know that I am unable to cancel without paying more money for food I won't eat and do not like. Would never recommend this diet to anyone. Continual waste of money and I do not think it is fair to lock me into an expensive plan before I had any idea the food was so dissatisfying.
Hi Jennifer,
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. I apologize that you are not enjoying the foods that came in your order as well as the discontinuation fee. We will be looking into your account and reaching out shortly.

I signed up to try Nutrisystem Lean 13. Very small portions and you have to still add in your own food. I lost 6.6 pounds and did not feel like the weight loss was worth the hunger or money. I called to cancel after I was auto charged for second month and the rude nutrisystem rep said I could cancel but they charge $125 to do that. Nowhere... in plain sight... does it state that on the website. When I said I feel that is poor business, he stated, "Go ahead and say what you want... we have a great rating with BBB." Buyer beware.
Hi Julie,
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are sorry to hear that you were unaware of the fee associated with discontinuing after only receiving one order. We will be looking into this and reaching out soon.

I have been on the plan since June 1st, today is August 5th. I really like the plan, I like the food and especially like the ease of the plan. I have only lost 9 pounds to date. I follow the plan exactly as instructed; I really expected to have lost more.

Hello, I have been on the program for about 3 months now and love it! I took the BOGO deal on the bars and bought two boxes, and only received 1 single bar. I reached out to the Getting Started folks, and was helped immediately! I see that I already have a shipment confirmation for the rest of my bars. I appreciate the fast and courteous response from Bernadette **. And I will continue to tell others how much I have enjoyed Nurtisystem!
Hi Blair,
Thanks for writing such a wonderful review! We are happy to hear that Bernadette was able to help you quickly! Certainly spread the word. :-) We wish you the best of luck on your weight loss progress!

I did not receive my Dining Out. It been months now. I called and was told I would receive it. I'm paying $300 a month and was told tonight after months of waiting. It's been more than 30 days and I can't get the book. Very upset. I'm thinking about canceling.

I received the news feed that dinners were 30% off, I clicked the link and looked for the turkey medallions. They didn't appear in the search. I thought I had the name wrong so I looked it up. I wasn't wrong. I went to the website instead and found the product I wanted. I put it in my cart and I was NOT given the 30% discount. I did NOT place an order. I emailed NuMi because that's what I was using to start with. It took more than 2 days to get a response that the turkey medallions are dinner and part of the promotion. No information as to why it wasn't working properly... Whatever.

Did not like the food, only the breakfast and snacks. Maybe would have liked the frozen food better but wasn't given the chance to order any. Also the second order came too soon and was not given the opportunity to change the selections. Basically did not like the food.

I have been using Nutrisystem for the past few months and have been happy with the results. Recently I agreed to a new shipment from Nutrisystem for the upcoming month. The shipment was processed but did not get shipped. I received no update from the company and only when I called to find out why the shipment had not arrived I was informed that shipments could take up to 10 business days (2 calendar weeks) to arrive. I canceled the order at the suggestion of the customer service rep. Nutrisytem should be telling new and existing customers about this big delivery issue before they accept orders.
