Critics Agree: NutriSystem is Expensive - But Not As Expensive As You Might Think
If you are a regular reader of Forbes Magazine, then you know that a couple of days ago it had its sights set on dieting, and the NutriSystem diet in particular. NutriSystem for men and for women was hailed as one of the country's "most popular weight-loss plans" but at the same time it also required a fiscal commitment.
Consumers were in for a surprise when they checked a little further through the article and learned that the cost of the NutriSystem diet runs about $74 for women and $82 for men during its initial week. This figure does not include fresh veggies and fruits. Weight Watchers, on the other hand, costs about $385. Citing statistical evidence from the census, Forbes asserts that the "average American household of four spends $254.10 a week on food."
Critics Place NutriSystem First and Weight Watchers Last
Weight loss with a dedicated system might appear to some a bit too rigid for comfort, but for those with a lot of weight to lose, there really is no doubt that the regimented and prepackaged diets supplied by NutriSystem and Weight Watchers have their merits. It is thus perhaps a bit surprising that the Top Diet Review site has named Weight Watchers as one of its diets on the naughty list while NutriSystem got top honors on the nice list.
Dieters Want to Know: What's The Path to Losing Weight
An analysis of the Weight Watchers and NutriSystem plans shows that Weight Watchers is a perfect lifestyle changer. It is not intended for quick weight loss, provides peer pressure as a means of ensuring compliance, and also enables individual dieters to use visual means of points to think through their food choices.
