Time to write...
Here I am a week and a half into my membership with Jenny Craig. I've lost 5.2 lbs so far! I don't like their e-journal too much, so I decided to make my own here. If you've tried to lose weight and read articles about it, you know that keeping track of what you eat, your exercise, and your feelings/reactions is proven to aid in long term success. So here I am!
I've got that same old same old story of losing weight, gaining it back, trying this diet, trying that one... Even writing this now, I worry I'll just be doing this all over again in a year or two... "this time will be different!" sounds kind of hollow after so many times. But honestly? I can't stand being so unhappy with myself anymore. There's so many things about myself that I AM happy with, why should I let my weight put a shadow over me? Why should I not let myself be in control? I can be happy with my weight and I am going to treat myself to what I deserve - a healthy body that I am proud of!!!
