nutrisystem scrambled eggs =

:puke: remind me to take them off my order next month......eeeek

1. just out of curiosity....

how do they differ from, say, scrambled eggs you would make yourself?

[Rising Phoenix]

2. for starters

they are powdered....

you add 4 oz of water and microwave, repeatedly taking out to stir.....rubber

I was sick so I was too lazy to use the stove but next time I definitely will and see if that makes them any better....

when cooked they looked, smelled and tasted like eggs....just a bad texture

nutritionally....they are packed with extra protein to fight hunger, no cholesterol, and they are smaller portions

[MissMillie]

3. are they lower calorie or lower fat

that what you can make yourself w/ real eggs or w/ egg beaters?

[Rising Phoenix]

4. yes

only about 100 calories, very little fat......

[Orsino]

5. Then they're not really eggs?

Or not the entire egg? What's different?

[Rising Phoenix]

6. I think they are not the entire egg

I don't really want to know...lol....all I know is Nurtisystem is working....hehe

[MissMillie]

7. so better, nutritionally, than a real egg

but maybe about equivalent to egg beaters... which probably taste a lot better.

8. Egg beater scrambled eggs are good.

I add a dash of 1% milk and some Bragg Aminos and pepper. Yummy.

[Rising Phoenix]

9. yes

I haven't tried egg beaters, but my mom has been dying to try them for herself.....

I'll let you know how they come out on the stove tomorrow......today, I am having an apple...lol

10. Huh . . .

two eggs scrambled with milk is only 170 calories with 14 grams of protein. Unless there are health issues, I always think the real thing is best. Just my humble opinion.

[Rising Phoenix]

11. you are probably right

but I have a significant amount of weight to lose and this system is really helping.....when I get close to my goal I will of course start incorporating more "real" foods into the diet.....the plan calls for adding real fruits and vegetables and dairy to accompany their entrees

[Callalily]

13. It's sounds like you're

taking the right approach. Sometimes it's good for the ego to get a "jump start"! Wishing you good luck and success.

[Rising Phoenix]

15. thanks

I'm off to a good start.....

12. There have been many complaints about Nutrisystem.

The complaints outnumber the defenses.

14. I have had no problems with Nurisystem

I'm losing weight, eating three meals a day ( a miracle for me) and no physical problems as a result of the food.....true it doesn't taste as good as "regular" food, but most of it is ok.....the sales people have been nothiing but nice....
