We’re celebrating our progress by showing off our Nutribears this week! In addition to the great meal plans and online support tools we get,  Nutrisystem also rewards members for their weight loss by sending a bear designed especially for every 10 pounds lost.

With a total of 6 bears earned so far between the two of us, and lots more pounds to lose, we’re going to have to find a special spot for them before they take over!
