HORSHAM, PA. (February 23, 2010) - A national personality who graced the covers of top fashion magazines and appeared on both big and small screens, Angie Everhart hit a plateau with her weight when her life changed gears after giving birth to her son Kayden.  Everhart, who battled weight gain her entire life, called on Nutrisystem to get her pre-baby body back and regain her confidence by shedding 34 pounds.

Nutrisystem, Inc., a leading provider of weight management products and services, has announced that Everhart has joined the success stories of Marie Osmond and Dan Marino as Nutrisystem’s newest spokesperson, ready to take on a healthier lifestyle and achieve her ideal weight.

“People are sometimes surprised to hear that I’ve battled weight gain my entire life, especially those who know me from my modeling days.  In reality, I was thin when I was a model but I still fought against many of the same issues and didn’t live a healthy lifestyle,” said Everhart.  “In a short period of time Nutrisystem has changed my life and helped me understand how to live a healthier lifestyle, which is so important as a new mom.”

Added Everhart, “After giving birth to Kayden I knew that I had a lot of weight to lose but I didn’t want to starve myself to get thin.  Nutrisystem helped me lose weight the healthy way, by eating right and portioning my meals wisely.  The Nutrisystem program is working for me and I have a better understanding of how to treat my body. As a career mom, it also helps that the meals are so convenient and easy to prepare-not to mention great-tasting. While on the Nutrisystem program I can handle the demands of motherhood, and still have energy to work out.”

“We are thrilled to support Angie as she embarks on new career aspirations, motherhood and her goal to lose weight and stay healthy,” said Joe Redling, Chairman and CEO of Nutrisystem.  ”While new mothers are often eager to lose their baby weight, and as few as two percent of new moms are able to keep the weight off, it’s important to adopt a healthy, consistent weight-loss plan that incorporates exercise.”

“For some of us, weight gain happens at a rate of a pound or two a year, until we wake up one day and realize there’s a problem.  For others, like Angie, there is a life event that leads to sudden weight gain,” said Dr. Bruce Daggy, Vice President, Research & Development for Nutrisystem.  “Either way, when you are ready to make a change, you want to find an approach that fits with your lifestyle, that you can stick with, and that you can trust to be good for you.  We are pleased that Angie has chosen Nutrisystem, and hope that her example will inspire others to begin their own weight loss journeys.”

The Nutrisystem Women’s program is designed specifically for women who want an easy to follow, convenient and effective weight loss program.  The program is based on more than three decades of research and proven experience on the effectiveness of weight loss on a low calorie, portion controlled diet accompanied by exercise.  Nutrisystem is strongly based on the Glycemic Index, which measures how quickly carbohydrates are broken down and absorbed by the body.

Through the partnership, Nutrisystem provided the eight women with complimentary Nutrisystem weight loss programs, including: portion controlled meals, nutritional counseling, weight loss support and education.  Additionally, Nutrisystem is taking the lead to provide $100,000 in support consisting of a corporate gift, awareness campaigns and in-kind donations for WomenHeart, the nation’s only patient-centered advocacy organization solely dedicated to promoting women’s heart health, and providing education, advocacy and support to women living with heart disease.

“Heart disease is the leading cause of death in American women, a disease so pervasive that it touches millions of families and yet even a small weight loss can help reduce a women’s risk for heart disease.  By partnering with WomenHeart, we have identified these eight special women who serve as an inspiration by overcoming their challenges to lose weight and to live a heart healthier lifestyle.  There is no one more deserving to celebrate and wear a beautiful red dress this February than these eight women,” said Joe Redling, Chairman and CEO of Nutrisystem, Inc.

“Obesity is a leading risk factor for heart disease and 61% of American women are overweight or obese. These eight WomenHeart Champions demonstrate that women can take charge of their heart health by managing their weight and reducing their risk for heart disease,” said Lisa M. Tate, CEO of WomenHeart.

WomenHeart Champions are women living with heart disease who are trained at WomenHeart’s annual Science & Leadership Symposium at Mayo Clinic to become community educators, advocates, support network leaders and national spokespersons in the effort to raise awareness about heart disease as the leading cause of death in women. The eight WomenHeart Champions who began the seven-month lifestyle challenge in July 2009 are all women who have struggled with weight loss as part of their quest to take control of their heart health. They each made the commitment to fight obesity and set a positive example for women all over the country.  Here are their stories:

• Evan McCabe, 53, Santa Barbara, CA - Spending years educating and motivating patients and their families about the importance of lifestyle changes as a Cardiology Registered Nurse and professor, Evan knew that being 40 pounds overweight was not good for her heart, as she states, “I was in my own form of denial until I ended up in the emergency room with severe chest pain from heart disease!” With her weight loss more than 40 pounds to date, Evan has become an even more ardent advocate for women’s heart health.
• Natasha Fleishman, 41, Lake Elmo, MN - At just 33 years old, with no prior symptoms, or family history of heart disease, Natasha suddenly experienced cardiac arrest in 2002 at her office. Following her recovery and after regaining her health, several stressful events in her life caused her to gain weight.  With her two young sons as her motivation, Natasha is thrilled to now be in charge of her heart health by losing 36 pounds for her “Red Dress” moment.

• Eileen Drezcka, 46, Sheboygan, WI - After surviving cancer, Eileen’s strength was tested again when she suffered heart failure.  Initially misdiagnosed with pneumonia, Eileen was determined to overcome her heart failure for her wedding day last June. In 22 weeks, she met her goal of losing 21 pounds and is ecstatic to get into her beautiful red dress to help build awareness about heart health.
• Denise Sullivan, 49, Old Town, ME - Working in the medical field for years and having lost her father at a young age to heart disease; Denise was very aware of the signs of heart disease. But like so many, she ignored them. She survived her quadruple bypass surgery but battled with weight gain and diabetes for years afterwards.  Denise decided it was time to Get Red Dress Ready to learn how to lose weight, eat healthy and save her heart. She is doing just that at a 30 plus pound weight loss to date!
• Jana Belzer, 47, Kansas City, MO - Suffering a heart attack on vacation, Jana needed emergency open heart surgery and struggled with recovery from the experience and subsequent weight gain.  Today, Jana has lost more than 30 pounds and is proud to be taking back control of her heart health while Getting Red Dress Ready.
• Frances Pena, 45, Miami, FL - As a mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt and friend, Frances realized she was caring for everyone but herself after her heart attack occurred and found herself gaining weight.  Now, Frances has lost 25 pounds for herself, and feels beautiful and healthy again.

• Renee Thornton, 47, Hueytown, AL - After open heart surgery and six by-passes, Renee found herself 30 pounds heavier and has struggled with losing the weight. With her husband as her support who is also losing several pounds by default, Renee is eating healthy and excited to have lost 22 pounds to date.

• Connie Newlon, 52, Ypsilanti, MI - In an effort to take charge of her heart health, recover from quadruple bypass surgery, and combat her on-going struggle with diabetes, Connie has lost more than 33 pounds.  For her, Getting Red Dress Ready signifies “a renewed life and awareness of heart disease.”

“Through these eight remarkable women, WomenHeart and Nutrisystem are providing inspiration to women across the country to overcome their struggles with weight and lead healthy lives,” said Tate.  ”For two years, Nutrisystem has helped WomenHeart lay the groundwork to make programs like the Getting Red Dress Ready challenge possible, and we are grateful for their tremendous support.”

The Getting Red Dress Ready challenge focuses on helping women trim away excess body fat; one of the leading heart disease risk factors in women.  Nutrisystem has provided meals and nutritional counseling to each participant throughout the entire life-changing journey.  Participants can lose weight and live healthier by losing up to 10 pounds a month on the Nutrisystem program. Losing weight places a premium on heart health.  The Nutrisystem program is low in fat, cholesterol, saturated fats, and sodium

HORSHAM, PA. (January 14, 2010) - With millions of Americans making it their New Year’s resolution to lose weight and lead a healthier lifestyle, and with the cost of some diet programs rising as high as $10,000 per year[1], Nutrisystem has been credited by two of the nation’s most respected media outlets for helping consumers shed pounds without lightening their wallets.

The Nutrisystem weight loss program cards will begin to roll-out in the diet section of local Walgreens stores on December 25, 2009.

Walgreens will be the exclusive retailer selling the 28-day Nutrisystem D weight loss program for people with Type 2 diabetes who want to lose weight.

Once the card is activated and the order is placed, the customer will receive their Nutrisystem program through the Company’s home delivery system so they can start losing weight.

The Nutrisystem D program consists of 28 days of the Nutrisystem foods, while the Silver and Ready-to-go Starter Programs consist of 14 days of the Nutrisystem foods.  All programs purchased at Walgreens will include a Free Starter Kit. The program purchase price also includes shipping, free access to 24/7 weight loss counseling, and free membership to Nutrisystem’s robust online community.

The alliance with Walgreens adds to the previously announced retail distribution of Nutrisystem at Costco, Sam’s Club and Walmart and gives NutriSystem presence in four of the nation’s leading retailers with a total of approximately 10,000 retail locations.

HORSHAM, PA (DEC. 7, 2009) – Nutrisystem, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRI), a leading provider of weight management programs and services, announced that it expects to expand its retail presence through a new alliance with Sam’s Club. Nutrisystem will offer Sam’s Club members cards for its 35-day Program that will include Nutrisystem’s New Omega Chews, which is an optimum source of Omega-3s and helps support a healthy cardiovascular system, healthy cognitive function, and an overall heart-healthy lifestyle*. The weight loss programs will be available in over 600 Sam’s Clubs across the country, beginning in late December.

It is estimated that diabetes care costs some $174 billion in healthcare expenditures annually. What’s more, about 80% of people with diabetes (14.3 million) are overweight, and 45% of people with diabetes (8.05 million) diet to lose weight, according to a recent Gallup survey. Being obese or overweight with diabetes impairs glucose tolerance, increases insulin resistance and enlarges fat cells, which, in turn, makes diabetes more severe.

The new NutriSystem D program is based on more than three decades of scientific research and proven experience on effective weight loss with exercise. NutriSystem D is based on a low Glycemic Index diet that integrates good carbohydrates into its meal plan. It’s also low in fat and high in fiber. The Glycemic Index measures how quickly food is broken down and absorbed by the body, which impacts blood sugar, a vital factor for people managing their diabetes. The unique combination of NutriSystem D helps support stable blood sugars and keeps you feeling fuller longer between meals. A recent clinical study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) showed that for patients with Type 2 diabetes, 6-month treatment with a low-Glycemic Index diet resulted in moderately lower HbA(1c) levels compared with a high-cereal fiber diet.

New Nutrisystem D is based on a structured 28-Day meal plan that is completely customizable. The program features more than 140 gourmet-style selections that emphasize healthful whole grains, as well as low fat and low sodium dishes. NutriSystem D menu items are designed to be heart healthy with zero trans fat and low sodium. Customers can supplement their NutriSystem entrées with grocery-items like fresh fruit, vegetables, salads and low-fat dairy to complete their meals.

NutriSystem D meals are shipped free of charge to customers that are enrolled in our auto delivery program. The structured meal program does not require members visit centers to weigh-in or count carbs, calories or points.

“People with diabetes have to perform mental gymnastics when they attempt to lose weight– balancing macronutrients like carbohydrates and protein, with overall calories, all while keeping their blood sugar in check. The complexity causes many people to give up due to frustration,” explains Dr. Gary Foster, Director of the Center for Obesity Research and Education of the Temple University School of Medicine, and the principal investigator of the clinical study. “A structured plan makes the tough work of weight loss easier, it provides a jump start to help motivate patients.”

Horsham, PA (August 19, 2009) - Nutrisystem, Inc. (NASDQ: NTRI), a leading provider of weight management products and services that are delivered directly to the customers’ doors, announced today that its popular 28-Day Nutrisystem Select program now includes an additional week of delicious fresh frozen entrees - all for the same low monthly cost. The program combines a full two weeks of gourmet style fresh-frozen meals, including breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, with two weeks of Nutrisystem’s classic ready-to-go foods. Previously, the Select program included only one week of fresh-frozen foods. The new Select 28-Day program is an even better value to customers because it offers more of what customers really want and maintains an affordable per-meal cost of about three dollars.

“Our data clearly shows that ‘value’ matters to consumers now more than ever. That’s why an extra week of our premium frozen food, for the same great price makes this such a popular program”, said Joe Redling, CEO and Chairman of Nutrisystem.”

In a twelve-day taste test of foods from four popular diet companies recently reported in The Wall Street Journal, Nutrisystem Select fresh-frozen meals received the highest taste accolades. Reporter Peter King remarked, “Our Nutrisystem Select meal of turkey medallions with broccoli, carrots and cauliflower…was the best meal in our 12-day diet-food odyssey; the turkey was moist and tasty, and the vegetables were flavorful and vibrant with color.”

With up to 170 meal choices, Nutrisystem makes it easier than ever for consumers to stick to their weight loss plan and save money while still indulging in foods that taste great including Shrimp Alfredo, Ravioli Formaggio and sweet frozen treats like ice cream sandwiches and fudge swirl bars.

“At Nutrisystem, we always strive to raise the bar on taste and value,” said Chris Terrill, Nutrisystem’s Executive VP Ecommerce and Chief Marketing Officer. “We recognize how important gourmet-style food is to a successful weight loss journey and are pleased that our customers now have a way to get more of these popular entrees without an increase in our monthly cost.”

Nutrisystem weight loss programs are based on over 35 years of science and nutritional research and are the first prepared diet programs that totally integrate low-Glycemic Index carbohydrates into meal plans that are also low in fat, high in protein and fiber to help you feel full longer. They also contain fiber and omega-3s to help promote heart health.

Nutrisystem customers receive free 24/7 phone counseling with weight loss coaches, as well as free access to its online Mindset Makeover, and membership to its robust online community of over four million people sharing weight loss success stories and tips.

Nutrisystem’s New Select Program Offers Frozen Entrees and Treats – Including Ice Cream
With Nutrisystem‟s newly launched Select program, customers can enjoy restaurant-quality, fresh-frozen entrees and desserts including Shrimp Alfredo, Margherita Pizza, Ice Cream Sandwiches, and Fudge Swirl Sundaes, all while sticking to their weight loss plan.

In addition, consumers can enjoy Nutrisystem Flex, the brand‟s most flexible and affordable weight loss program, which is perfect for those who are “on the go” in the busy summer months. The Flex program makes it easy for consumers to incorporate Nutrisystem into their busy lifestyles while still ensuring they get the results they want, all while beginning to apply Nutrisystem principles into their daily lives. On the Flex program, customers mix and match Nutrisystem foods and can have “weekends off” to enjoy healthy home-cooked or restaurant meals following Nutrisystem guidelines. Nutrisystem also provides a comprehensive Dining Out Guide to help participants make the right choices at their favorite restaurants, and a Nutrisystem Recipe Book, which allows customers to learn how to prepare nutritionally balanced meals for themselves and their whole family.
