... I'm at it again. Sounds like a broken record. I'm back at Jenny Craig. Doing well, mind you ... down 12 pounds in one month. Hunky hubby has joined as well, one week after I did, and he's down 15 pounds (it really just isn't fair, is it?!) I'm very proud of him ... his willpower far surpasses mine :)
I was struggling big time trying to do this on my own ... attending Weight Watchers, but trying to figure out meals on my own, with very little time. Quite often I would turn to less healthy, quick to prepare foods, or order pizza, or just eat out. The busier we got, the worse we ate. I kept seeing all these celebrities losing weight on Jenny Craig, and I know how busy their lifestyles are (and alot of them even have their own cooks!) so after seeing commercial after commercial, I decided to go back. Best decision I could have made. It's so convenient. And it's helping us make better choices, trying more meals on our own and supplementing with the Jenny Craig food when we are too busy to cook. Yes, we are still eating out, but we are conscious of how much and what we are eating, we still treat ourselves, but we feel that is important to keep on track, and keep this lifestyle forever. Never going back to the binging and gaining all that weight back again.
So now after one month the weight loss is slowing down a bit (which is to be expected), so I need to get moving more. I'm walking, but I need to pick up the pace, maybe get back to Curves ... now there's a plan. Need to find a gym buddy to keep me motivated to go.
Goal is to be down at least another 10 pounds before our trip east in July. I CAN do this. I WILL do this ... that sound like a broken record, too ... but I AM going to be successful this time!
So pack those broken LPs and 45s away for a rainy day ... I won't make you pull them out again :)
Oh, and for all the younger generation who have no idea what I'm talking about when I say LPs and 45s, do a fast-finger google on your iPhone or Blackberry of "what are record albums" and you will get your answer via Wikipedia ;)
Thanks for reading!
