Christina -- sorry to hear about your gain this game of weight loss can be so frustrating. I'm sure this week will be better for you. Let me know if doing the pre-planned menu helped.
I had a wonderful time in VA but the scale didn't like it. I was up 4 1/2 which did not make me happy. It's unbelievable to me how fast I gain weight. Well this week I was back on track and I hope tomorrow to be down a couple of pounds. My problem is I'm going out to dinner tonight so I'm hoping that doesn't mess up my weigh in for tomorrow. I will be at a seafood restaurant and I plan to eat well but it's still not the same as having a Jenny meal. Hopefully it doesn't hurt me to much.
Where is everyone else. Come on back.

Hi luvtotravel! Glad to hear the lbs. are coming back off for you. You are so right. Why is it so easy to gain, but so hard to take it off? Oh, well life happens. We need to enjoy it and then work hard afterwards.
I was down 1.8 lbs. today, so I took off most of what I gained last week. The preplanned menu was o.k., but I decided to try it for another week, because for me the real test will be if I lose two weeks in a row. It's no suprise to be down this week since it seems my "normal" pattern has been up one week, down the next.

Christina -- good for you for taking off the weight you had gained. I hope the 2nd week on the pre-planned works for you. I am weighing in tonight and next week I'm going to be going away for a few days which I am going to really try to watch what I'm eating carefully but I know that will be hard. When I get back I might try the pre-planned menu to get myself back on track if needed.

Howdy! Sorry it took me a bit to get back here. I've been busy busy busy.
Disneyland trip didn't go that great (diet wise) but I had a wonderful time with my other Disney obsessed friends!
Actually, I don't think I did too horribly. The scale was up 12 lbs the morning after I got home (midnight arrival - so only about 8 hours later). I tried to not freak out about it because I knew my TOM was supposed to start the next day and flying always makes people retain water as well.
I DID go to my JC appointment on Tuesday but asked if I could skip the official weigh in. (she was cool with that)
Back on plan for 1 week (ate out for Mother's Day at a Moroccan place) and ended up being a pound lower than before I left for my trip (and my scale agreed with the JC scale). SO, I lost 13 lbs in 1 week. That tells me it was pretty much all water retention between flying and TOM.
I don't remember the person's name who asked on the last page but...
RE: THE FOOD ON JC --- If you like frozen meals you should be fine! I can handle the frozen dinners etc, but the shelf stable ones are pretty iffy for me. A FEW of those have been OK, but for the most part, I avoid them. Especially the shelf stable beef ones. GROSS (to me)
Both hubby and I like the plan because it gives a good variety of foods. We don't feel like we're denied anything (other than a nice rib eye steak....... oh, missing steak... And I didn't even order one on the trip when I was cheating - how dumb was that?! LOL) Hubby did just say yesterday that he was wishing for some ice cream, but I think I've read that there are some that we can trade for a snack once in a while. (weight watchers maybe?)

Maybe this will work
Ok I've been on this board a while. I've gained weight. My insurance offers discounts on Jenny Craig. So I'm going to try it. I'm hoping its very structured. I seem to do well in a structured environment. I will post and let you guys know.

I am a lil scared. I don't want to fail at yet another diet plan. I also worry about how well Jenny will fit into my life. Anyone care to discuss their experience on Jenny Craig so far?

Welcome jusalilbabefat -- I have been on Jenny for a few months and it suits me quite well. That is not to say I haven't had my ups and downs because I have but for me that has been with many diets. The thing I like about Jenny is that when I do have a few bad meals or days it is easier to get back on track then other diets because the food is right there for you so there is no excuse. At least that is my opinion. Good luck and let us know how you are doing.
I have had a couple of up and down weeks lately but I am happy to say I am down 2.6 today. Last week I joined a gym and I am hoping that is going to help me with the weight loss and with the motivation to stick to it.
It's been awhile since we've heard some from of the regulars on this board. If you are out there, I hope you are all doing well.

Just wanted to introduce myself. I will be receiving my food on Tuesday and getting started on the program Wed. I signed up for 6 weeks and depending on how those weeks go, I'll either continue or not. I have about 90 pounds to lose. I hope to gain some good advice here regarding JC. Nice to meet everyone!

Approximately did the 6 week program cost (the plan and food)? I didn't know they had a 6 week program!

Well.......I joined for 36 dollars (plus the cost of food) for 6 weeks and depending on how well I do/like it, I will continue although it is super pricey afterwards. I'm not sure if it's allowed for me to quote how much I paid so if you would like to pm me I'll be glad to fill you in.

I called Jenny
I'm starting my program right now as I type. I like that I will have these weekly consults. I came in at 232.8lbs last night at the free consult. What a bummer, but, next week that number is coming down.
