After yesterday's disaster I considered making this Day One, but decided that that would be cheating and not facing facts. I decided to continue reporting as I was going, including the bad days.
Yesterday I got the Nutrisystem card from Costco in the mail.
Today I went online and went to "redeem card" section and was not able to make the card work. I put the number into the system as shown on the card, and alternately as shown on the example. I tried to open a new account, thinking that the fact that I had last been there in 2012 might be causing a problem. I contacted the online Chat and was told to go back to the "redeem online" page. Finally I called Nutrisystem customer service and was told that the number on the back of the card from Costco did not exist, so I went back to Costco customer services and asked for help.
This may be the shortest Nutrisystem diet blog ever. I have enough Nutrisystem food for a few more days, but I'm pretty stressed now.
Further stress - the online counselor had given me an email address for the "Nutrisystem Blogging" program. Turns out to be an invalid address. Then I found Nutrisystem reviews at https://nutrisystem.pissedconsumer.com - The complaints fall into two categories - "poor-tasting food" and "auto ship won't stop no matter what I do". I'm OK with the food - after all, this is a diet, but I seem to remember having a problem with the auto ship myself, so this is something to consider.
Today's powerfoods: Greek yogurt and 2 Tablespoons of walnuts
Today's smartcarbs: rice cake, small apple
Vegetables: Large mixed salad
This started out as "Can an Old Lady Lose Weight on Nutrisystem" but as time went on it became obvious Nutrisystem wasn't goting to work very well. As of 11-28-16 I am going to work on finding an alternative.
