I called JENNY!

Posted: July 6, 2007 at 3:47 am

Today I started Jenny Craig. It is an expensive program but one I think will work for me. Those of you lifers may remember that I was doing a pretty good job losing weight just before we got our babies. Obviously, that was put on hold – until now.

So, I’ll be tracking my progress once again and you can cheer me along….. ;)

Today was the first day I started eating Jenny food and it’s actually very yummy. I had a hard time deciding which meal to pick because they all looked good – hopefully they will continue to taste good, too. And if you follow the plan, it’s actually a lot of food to consume in one day (not that it is a problem for me). Anyway, I’m counting today as a success because the only “cheating” I did was by eating a few extra pieces of fruit.

My motto is “I can do anything for six weeks”. That’s what I’m focusing on for now – I’m going to give it my best for six weeks and then re-evaluate. I’m ready to fit into cuter clothes and shop in normal stores again. I do have a wedding to go to on Saturday night and that is going to be a real challenge, but I can do it. I can’t wait to go and weigh in next week and see how many pounds I’ve lost. :D

Just like last time, watch the number at the bottom of each post – Thursday is the magic day next week.

By the way, Karenh, I know you will be extremely pleased to hear that I actually bought FRESH green beans from the grocery store today. I did have to call mom to find out how to cook them, but that is beside the point. I also bought cucumbers. And even broccoli. I can’t spell it but I’ll eat it anyway.

Oh yeah, and my closet is clean. Now THAT is an accomplishment!
