I sometimes hear from people who want to know for how long they
are required to be on the Nutrisystem diet. My response is that this is
honestly up to the person asking the question. I am often met with a
blank stare or a questioning look. Some people will follow up and ask
how this is a decision that is left up to them. Many assume that the
diet is one that must be prescribed by a doctor who must also determine
the length of the time that he or she is willing to prescribe the diet.
Others assume that you have to sign up for or commit to a certain number
of months before they can order any meals. Neither of these are true.
