management products and services, announced today the unveiling of
its new summer/fall marketing campaign, featuring its newest brand

third son, Tucker. Hart, 37, mother, actress, writer, producer,
director and singer, discusses how she needed a program that was
easy, convenient and worked with her busy schedule.
To date Hart has lost 30 pounds on the Nutrisystem program.
Hart has fans of all ages, many of whom remember her playing a
likeable young witch who got what she wanted in a snap! Her love of
Nutrisystem working like magic transforms her body right before the
viewers' eyes. Within the new spot Hart also mentions that she gets
to pick all her favorite meals that are delivered right to her
door, are perfectly portioned and are ready in minutes. Hart's son
Tucker even makes a couple adorable cameos in her new television
spot. To view Hart's new spot please visit Nutrisystem's YouTube

"I had heard rave reviews about Nutrisystem. My
sister-in-law had great success with it and I decided that I had to
try the program out for myself," said Hart. "It's easy and fits in
perfectly with my busy life. I get to eat all the foods I love like
pasta, burgers, chocolate and ice cream. Who knew that losing the
weight and getting back into shape could taste so good!"
"We are excited about Melissa's new marketing campaign and hope
that it will inspire others to want to lead healthier lives with
the help of Nutrisystem," said Keira
Krausz, Chief Marketing Officer at Nutrisystem. "She is such
an inspirational role model and we are proud of her commitment to
lose the weight, but more importantly to having a long-term
healthier lifestyle."

commercial since she was a child. Hart is best known for her title
roles in the television series Clarissa Explains It All
