I have a question regarding the staff at the centres. Do all cousellors need to have attempted the program at one point or another? I have one at the centre that I always seem to get and she is tall, thin and blonde... Barbie type. I guess I have a hard time when I'm trying to follow the program and she is givng me crap for eating grapes and banana's (high in sugar). It's hummiliating enough to have to sit there and count out 15 grapes, but she gives me flack over it.
I think it should be a requirement that the counsellors have done the program, so then they knows what their clients are going through.
Okay, that kind of turned into a rant!! Lol Sorry!
We are all strongly encouraged to do the program as long as we are medically eligible. In my center we have employee weigh-ins before opening on certain days to make sure we are not underweight. When I started with the company I was just getting over a few medical problems where I had lost almost 30 lbs, the managers in my center called the dieticians and put me on a plan to gain weight and get back to a healthy weight.
The photo is of me and my 4 year-old cousin that I often refer to as my niece (long story). It's from this Christmas. I don't have any children of my own so I spoil her rotten.
I am on the mant. part of the program after they got my weight back up (see above post). I do occasionally do the Take-Off if I've been way out or I have a special occasion coming up and want to get rid of any puffiness. BTW is that Miss Emmy in the photo with you?
That's right, LAGirl...I did read your post about the weight gain issue. I read so many posts, I forget things! Yes, that is my little Emily (aka Emmy, Embem, Booboo, etc). She'll be two on March 17th.
