If we truly are what we eat, Tori Spelling is even scarier than I thought. I can’t imagine anyone read that whole first section, but what you've spent a good deal of time scrolling through is the list of ingredients that a person might ingest on ONE DAY of the Nutrisystem plan we've all seen advertised on TV by Tori herself. To be fair, I did select some of the more interesting choices for dramatic effect (breakfast burrito, meatball parmesan melt, Salisbury steak with macaroni and cheese, and a milk chocolatey delight bar for a snack), i.e. not all of their items contain quite so many ingredients; still, there are hydrogenated oils, preservatives, and artificial colors and flavors all over the place. Also, I’m sure many people would see some weight loss eating this menu (only 890 calories! This makes the ingredient list even more astonishing.) every day (until they enter “starvation mode” as discussed previously - they will also likely experience several other side-effects). However, that this program* claims to be a “healthy” weight-loss solution is downright laughable. And/or pukable. *Not to single out NutriSystem; I'm just using it as an example for the many other programs also promising a quick fix.
One of my favorite pastimes is judging the items in other peoples’ carts at the supermarket – I’m not proud of this, really, but the fact remains. Weird that I like it, too, because I generally feel disgusted as most carts (especially those pushed by fat parents with fat children) contain more than their share of chips, cookies, soda, etc. My feelings border on sympathy, though, for those containing advertised “diet foods” - reduced fat Wheat Thins, LeanCuisine, turkey hot dogs, sugar-free Pop Tarts, you get the picture. At least those people are trying. It’s unfortunate they’ve been fed so much propaganda and even more so that I can make that pun. If I could offer one word of advice, though: stay out of the middle aisles, and if you can’t do that, at least be wary of nutrition facts and ingredient lists. I can honestly say that my ingredient list for this entire week is nowhere near 100.
