The Nutrisystems Diet plan is a "send you the food" diet plan similar to Jenny Craig. The Nutrisystems Diet is based on the Glycemic Index of Carbohydrates. Foods low in the glycemic index are supposed to raise your blood glucose levels slower and over a longer period of time. Combined with a low fat diet, excercise, and frequent smaller portioned meals, the glycemic index diet is supposed to make you less hungry (due to a constant blood glucose).

The diet consists of 5 meals a day. You order the food up front and receive a shipment in the mail. None of the food needs refrigeration. You must supply around 65% of the total food for the diet on your own, in the form of yogurt, salads, cheese, bread, the low GI carbs, etc. The food that you are shipped is the basic base meal for each meal.

Mike Golic, Dan Marino, Don Shula and John Kruk are among those who have endorsed this product.
