Hitting the reset button...
I have stewed and stewed over my decision and finally after 2 and a half months and only seeing the scale move 5 or 6 pounds, I decided to rejoin Jenny Craig. My husband and I had many long discussions over it and I've vacillated between I need to do this to get my brain and body back in weight loss mode and no, don't do it because you have others to feed and it really sucks being a stand-out dieter. For many reasons, WW was not doing it for me. I didn't like the new points plus. I like it in theory, but not in practice because it doesn't do much for me when, for instance, I'm out at Panera and they only put calories on their menu. How do you figure points then? I resorted to the old points system and made sure that I was eating healthy and staying in my calorie range, but then I got lazy about following points, counting calories and keeping my food log (I know, BAAAAADDD!). I unfortunately made some bad choices when eating out, which happened a lot recently with special events, date nights since I don't see hubby that often...Ohhh...and don't forget stress eating. I'm more than a little aggravated that my parent's house and my house needs tons of work and my brother is leaving it all to me to do while he works out daily for 2-3 hours in the gym. I'm bitter that we were going to lose home owner's insurance on my parents' house and while I'm slaving at the house doing everything, working with attorneys, insurance companies, and ignoring my routine, my brother is dropping weight and turning into a hard body at my expense. It's just wrong. Would it be so hard for him to stop being so selfish and throw me a bone so I can have time to do what I need to do, too? Grrrrrrr....
