Before After

Back To Jenny

Well, I went back to Jenny yesterday.  I did not weigh-in, but I purchased food and made an appointment for next Saturday.   I will weigh-in then.  TOM is almost out the door and the scale is holding at 211.5 so I am okay with that.  I hope to get below 210 by Saturday.  I really love the JC food and there are some dishes that I really miss eating when I am not on program.   I have to say, I am a little pissed that in the three weeks I have been gone, my counselor could have cared less.   Honestly, I could just weigh-in every week and buy the food.  My counselor is not that great.  JC has been so busy lately that it is like a meat market.  After Valerie Bertinelli appears on Oprah today, I suspect that it will only get worse.   I'm thinking about doing my own program by  buying some Jenny foods and eating my own foods down the road.  We shall see.  I obviously need some structure now.

  Whatever the case, it's time to get back on track.   This is a BUSY time for me at work.    It seems that it will only get busier.  That could help me with the program as I really do not have time to think about what to eat and having prepared foods ready is a good thing.  I also need to get back in the gym which is going to be a challenge now and down the road.  My plan is ti get back into my routine this week.

  As an FYI, I found a great plus-size clothing boutique...yes boutique here in NYC.  It is called Monif C and the website is located at www.monifc.com.  I was watching the show "How to Look 10 Years Younger"and I saw that they had this woman who had lost a lot of weight.  She  was still a "healthy" size.  What caught my attention were the dresses.  They were feminine, flirty and up to date.  Well, I went there this weekend and was happy that I did.  Now, the store is smaaaaalll and not much bigger than my living-room, but what cute things they had.  Their most popular item is the "Marilyn" convertible dress that is on back order.   I tried it on and it looked FABULOUS!!!   It was the dress that the woman wore on the show.  You can't believe how many looks you can get with this dress.  Now, the price is steep at $195, but worth it.  I wanted two, but ordered one in white.  I tried it on the pink one and it looked fab.  For all of you AKA's, they have pink and ...a light green.  Sadly, as a Delta, there was no red, but I will be working that white this summer !!!   They are in the midst of a sale and I also got a beautiful black lace dress for half-price.   The store was a little out of sorts because they were just on BET's Rip the Runway so I will have to go back ;) Anyway, check them out.   

  Okay all...I hope everyone is having a good on-program week!!!

i love those!

I'm watching Oprah now .... I bet my centre will be a mess this week. Congrats on going back. Maybe you can ask to see someone else? But I think if you know that you are okay just go pick up your food and weigh in every month?

Anyway those dresses are soooo amazing I love them!

You make me smile!

I linked in today through the JC message board and I'm SO GLAD I did.  You make me smile.  We think alike....  and you GOTTA love a woman who loves to cruise.  I don't think there a any better way to travel than on a cruise line.  *SIGH* I've added you to my friends list so that I can continue to let you make my day. 

Thanks!!

any blue in the house?

see anything cute in blue and white?

Hey

Just dropping by to stay hi. I missed both of those shows. I wish I would have seen Oprah. Oh well maybe I'll catch a repeat. I had a look at the site and some of those dresses are beautiful! I hope you have a good week!

Sexy dresses

Dani, I love Monif's dresses, they are so fly. I can't remember who introduced me to her, but I've been to her website and I occasionally get an email about sales and such. Next time I'm in NYC, I'll have to check her store out. Hopefully I'll get up that way this summer.

Thanks for always supporting me Danielle, it really means so much.

ps. Flip Jenny and do your own thing.

Be and do well...
