Ok, this is something I feel like I have to rant about now. I’ve been on the nutrisystem diet for about 4 months now. My fourth food package is on its way next week. I’ve been okay with the food, I’ve been doing the exercises, and I haven’t been cheating (with the exception of the occasional drink or that time with the Wasabi Peas - bastard Wasabi Peas…). I’ve now lost forty-two pounds. Here’s my rant:
I’ve only received one NutriBear. NutriBears are these little stuffed bears you get with every ten pounds you lose. I got one on my second shipment - the “10″ bear - after I lost 10 pounds during my first month. No bears were found on the third shipment. I called them up to ask. They said they’ll send the “20″ bear. They never did.

So yesterday I check the status of my pending fourth shipment. The “20″ bear is in there, but since I’ve lost another 20 pounds since then, I’m now expecting a “30″ and “40″ bear (nutrisystem knows how much weight has been lost because you log it on their website). I know this is trivial and it has nothing to do with getting myself into shape - and I’m definitely not aiming to score teddy bears. The first time they shipped the “10″ bear to me, I was surprised - I was like “I guess they give this out to men, too”. Now, I just want them to follow through. Because that “10″ bear is on top of my kitchen’s cupboards… mocking me.
