Hi,
Just signed up today!!!! I am having the food delivered to my home. I just wanted to say hiand meet a few people. I am going to need all the support I can get. Hopefully there is some one out there that needs a buddy too!!!!

Welcome!
We all need a buddy! There is a lot of supportive people in here and we can all relate. That is what i love about this website, i had just started back myself. Keep positive and stay encouraged, call on us anytime. This site is my encouragement too...Good Luck and Welcome!!!

jrm, We ALL need buddies out there. I was really feeling alone the first week but now that i am on my fourth week I am feeling good about the program. I have seen losses that have continued even though I have not been an angel to the menu. I have had my birthday where i ate at Ruth's Chris steakhouse and I ate b'day cake at the restaurant as well as at home. I couldn't look at the scale b/c i was sure i screwed up a loss for the week. I didn't though. I believe in the JC program and I am sure it will work well for you. I hope you can go into a center and meet w/ a consultant? I love my girl at JC and she is truly a Godsend.

I just joined today, too! Welcome! I am starting on Friday but I bought my food today. Where do you live? I'm in MA! Good luck! We CAN do this!!! AJ

Ruth's Chris steak house is the best! Good for you for being so committed and thank you for a great idea for where to go for my birthday because we have one in Boston now!

Morning everyone!
Another great thread that's been going is the "March Starters" thread. Come and join in!
Cheers,

Welcome to the program!

today is my first day too! I signed up last night and I am on the new food today!
I have had my breakfast and snack.. but i worried about lunch. It seems so small. I am used to eating big??
Any ideas how to fill up?

Hi to everyone. I also joined last night and got my food and plan to start Sunday, April 1st. First day of the week, first day of a new month. I have been on WW for the last few months and have managed to gain weight on that program. I have high hopes for Jenny!!

Girls; Congrats on starting JC. I have been on the program a little over six weeks and have lost 12.6 lbs so far. I have been very happy with the program.
Rstar: You mentioned the size of the lunch being small.. What I do is I always add a side salad to my lunches, I make a salad with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers & have that with the JC dressing for lunch. I also have one of my snack yogurts with my lunch. At first I was hungry a lot on the program, but I realized that it was because I had been eating too much for so long that my body had forgotten what a REAL portion size was.!!! Trust me, your body does adjust to the lower calories...It just takes time....

thanks everyone for the reply. I am in california to the ones that asked. I wont get my food until wednesday of next week, since I am doing Jenny direct..But I am excited to get start...Thanks again everyone!!

Just wanted to congratulate you on joining. It's starting to change my life in so many ways. I have a lot to lose but in one month, I'm already feeling skinny. Don't worry if you you're weight loss is different than others, mine fell off early in the beginning and others vice versa. I wish you the best.

Hi Everyone...I just finished my first week on JC Direct. I was really hungry this week. Obviously the portions I'm used to are three times the size of a normal portion. I stuck with it and lost 3 lbs! Yeah!!! But now I'm boarding a cruise ship in 2 weeks and I'm scared to death that I'm going to gain...and obviously, don't want to pass up all the good food I know will be in front of me! I'm going to work hard to stay on track! I started this program to loose and be healthy, and that needs to be my focus. Good Luck to everyone!

Hi tsimmons2,
thanks for your advice. I did have a salad yesterday evening with dinner, and steamed broccoli. It was good. I think eating 6 times a day makes the difference, I noticed that even though they were small portions, I wasn't "starving". Usually I am eating everything insite when I get home because I am starving, but because I had a 3:00pm snack, I was okay.
I was a little snacky while I was preparing dinner for my family, so I munched on some carrot sticks, and it wasn't so bad.
I guess one step at a time.. Today is day 2!!
