During their marriage, Todd and Julie Chrisley had both gained weight as the result of separate issues. According to the Daily Mail, Todd had simply gained weight during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, while Julie had gained weight as the result of menopause and other issues related to her battle with breast cancer. Though Julie had been the first one to adopt a Nutrisystem diet plan, Todd joined the weight loss journey after seeing Julie’s success. “Thankfully, Julie had been on the Nutrisystem program, and I witnessed firsthand that it works,” Todd told the Daily Mail. “It was great because I could jump right on board with her on the Nutrisystem Partner Plan.”
Thus far, Todd has lost 13 pounds while Julie has dropped a total of 27 pounds, reports the Daily Mail. The couple revealed they have found a new way to bond as they navigate their weight loss journeys. Says Todd, “It has made us closer because it’s something that we talk about. And it’s kind of like a competition. Anyone that watches our show knows that the Chrisleys are hugely competitive. So, it’s turned into a competition now between the two of us.” Julie added, “I think Todd and I consider ourselves partners in everything we do. So to be able to incorporate Nutrisystem and be one other thing that we’re partners with, I think is amazing.”
