Before After

Binge

I binged really bad last night :( and now I feel horrible :( I just gotta forget about it and start over today. Ok. I feel goooood... today is a good day.. haha

Charm Bracelet!

Bizziemommie just gave me a wonderful idea! Since I have so much to lose, I was thinking about doing the 10 pounds at a time route that people are writing about on the message boards. So I am going to go buy a charm bracelet and then every 10 pounds that I lose I am going to go and buy a new charm to celebrate! If I buy one charm to celebrate the start of my weight loss and one charm to celebrate the end of my weight loss, that will be about 13 charms. I think that will pretty much make a whole bracelet. Wow that will be a special bracelet when it is finished lol. Thank you so much Bizziemommie! Food-wise, I'm doing ok but I ran out of veggies and fruit and haven't gotten out to get more so I haven't been eating enough of those. My consultant sort of pressured me into an activity goal of walking 25 mins 4 times a week, which I'm not ready for. So I'm a bit upset about that. My mom is coming home from a vacation tomorrow though so I'm sure she will go with me. So I guess I have to walk Tues Wed Thurs Fri. lol.. I would just change my goal, but I think that sticking to it now will help me to stick to the program overall in the future, and it will make me feel good about myself too. I find Jenny Craig people to be quite pushy. I need to be careful to not let them push me around though. More later.

Weigh In 1

DOWN 4.4 pounds!!! yayyyyyy So last night I ate like fruit... because I didn't have any Jenny food left that was edible. Then I was in bed and I was like MANNNNNNN I'm hungry!!! So I went and ate 2 cheesesticks and chocolate milk and 2 pizza pops. And then I was full. lol. Anyways, now it's all good because I have more food. The crappy thing though is they said the bars/drink things are really important... so I got some of the vanilla drink things and more bars... and I'll see if the drinks are less gross. I am not too hopeful though. We'll see. Maybe I'll just have to lie to Jenny and tell her I'm having their spinach concoction thing and instead have a vitamin. hahahaha. The going is good. More later :P

ARGHHHH

I ran out of food that I like and I am SICK of carrots!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH. I'm going to Jenny Craig tomorrow. I want donuts and chocolate milk :)

No Name Post

Well, today has been good. I ate more regularly. One more full day until weigh-in. I was very surprised that cheese is considered a meat eh! I thought it would be a milk. It's great though, because I'm vegetarian and I LOVE cheese. I wonder if this diet will get harder over time. I hope not.. it's going good so far.

Oops

Well today I woke up at about 12pm... ate breakfast... went back to bed about an hour later... and didn't get up until after 3. By the time I got up I was wayyyy too hungry and just felt like crap. I've been having urges to binge all the rest of today now. I didn't binge though!! YAY lol.. I am really dreading eating that nutrition bar thing. Really. I was supposed to eat it this morning but I'm putting it off. I went shopping this evening and I only bought the things on my list, and nothing 'bad'. I'm proud about that too :P Later.

Bad Night

Wow last night was my first really hard night on the program. I woke up wanting to binge sooooooooo bad... I went downstairs and had a peach and some watermelon... I don't think that really helped. So I started looking for something else then I decided NO WAY, I started this diet saying that it would be my last one and it was going to work! So I went back upstairs. My mind was going nuts I wanted to binge so bad. So I took a sleeping pill and laid down with my iPod to listen to the Touchstones for Success CD I got from Jenny Craig. There was a part called 'What to do when you really want to binge' or something... so I listened to it and did what it said and within an hour or so I was ok and went to sleep. I'm so happy this morning that I did it. 3 days done, about 362 more to go :P

Starting Out

Hello everyone. I joined Jenny Craig on the weekend. This is my second day following the diet. I AM HUNGRY!! Not as hungry as yesterday though. I am really excited about this program and about losing ALL the weight I need to lose. I know I will do it this time. The only big issue I have so far is those nasty nutrition bars you have to eat every day. Ewwwww... I'm going to see if I can take a vitamin or something instead.
