Hi everyone! I am new to JC and looking for a buddy in the Richmond area. I have lost 6.6 so far and have 50 to go....

I weigh in Wednesday and I am nervous had a girls weekend in Atlanta and probably had more adult beverages than I should have....I am drinking tons of water and being active so we shall see....

Hi, I live in Richmond also. I go to the store on Midlothian Trpk. My wiegh ins are on Thursday and I started on March 24. I was doing great the first week but this past week has been horrible. I have continued my exercising. I am going in tonight and starting up fresh in the morning. I would love a buddy if you are still interested. I too have about 50 pounds to lose. I would be happy with 35 at this point but 50 is my goal.

Do you go to the Broad St store or Midlothian?

Hi - I go to the broad st location on Wednesdays at 8:00am. I am doing goo so far. I started 2/25 and have lost 12 total. I am averaging 2 per week....I find it is getting harder as I am bored with the food a little. I lost 2 this week so I am trying to re-adjust my mind set for another good week.

How are you doing so far?

Hello to all. I just joined on last Saturday. I am loving the program. It is so easy, I don't have to think about a thing. I go to the Broad Street location on Saturday mornings. Good luck!

Good luck! I agree it is easy to follow. I am down 16.5 pounds and 12 inches and just hit my 2 month mark. I have been traveling for work lately and still found it easy to manage while dining out.

Hi,

I live in Yorktown and I am starting the Monday after Mother's Day I have about 60lbs to lose and I really want to stay focused and make it work!

Hi Everybody in the Richmond area. I'm going to the Midlothian Tpk store on Monday evenings at 6:00 pm. I joined 4 weeks ago and have lost about 6 lbs. so far. I've got 35 more to lose. I think this is the easiest plan I've ever tried.... no calorie counting, no special menu planning or shopping, even fewer dishes to wash. But the food is kind of boring. But I"m determined to keep losing and keep going!!!!

Hello, I live in the Richmond area and just started the program on the 18th. I also like the ease of the program, but I'm a little worried about so many of you getting bored with the food. I love the suggestions on volumizing the food and adding spices and flavorings. What a great way to change it up without adding calories!

I am in Richmond as well. I weigh in on Saturday am at the broad st. store. I have been doing this off and on since september and have lost around 40 pounds. I have 40 more to go.

It has been a struggle. I find I have no control over my need to eat the comfort foods I love so much. I have created a pattern in which I lose 10+ pounds then gain 5 back every 6 weeks or so. I am in graduate school and life is extremely stressful for me.

I try my best to not berate myself for falling off the wagon and instead tell myself it is a minor set back and to get back on track NOW. In a way I think I am almost giving myself permission to eat...would I better off to berate myself for being so weak? The really strange part is that I had just bought some new clothes and they were quite a bit smaller and I am starting to really see and feel a difference-so why do I blow it?? Am I afraid to get to my goal weight?

I would so love to have someone to be buddies with.

Hi Richmond J.C. members,
I go to the midlothian location too in the am on mondays its my second week. I loss 6lbs last weeks weigh in day. I was very pleased I'm looking for a walking group. I work downtown and can walk by the james river canel which I do at 8am tues-sat's so if any one wants to join me please do I really could use the support.
I have a great family but my husband to be works 12-16 hour days and my teen age son is gone for the summer I'd love to suprise him with the weigh loss. He has no clue of me doing JC lol
So any one that wants to walk 30minutes with the view of the james let me know...
Thanks in advance and good luck

Hi. I live in Glen Allen and am thinking about joining JC. I did it years ago with good success at the time.

Hi. I just started up, and am going to get my food today!! I live in Glen Allen and would like someone to walk or work out with. I go to Victory Ladies fitness in Glen allen. Actually I am a member but haven't been since I signed up. i am excited to get going and losing weight would love to hear from you.

I will weigh in at Broad street. Not sure what day though. Probably a week day after work. Maybe Wednesdays. Do you live near the Broad street location? Do you work out anywhere. I get off work at 3 pm and would love to have someone to walk with or work out with. Let me know. Thanks and best wishes to you.

I live in Richmond too but am doing the Jenny Direct program and weighing in at home - have lost about 10 pounds so far but am having trouble staying on track. I have been at this for weeks and just can't seem to get the scale to move in the right direction - I know its all me and my determination and my choices - would love a chat buddy - or even a walking buddy if either of you are close by. Might help if I know someone personally that is also moving along this weight loss road - cuz it sure doesn't help when hubby brings home donuts!!!

Oh My Gosh you sound just like me. I struggle too with jumping back to comfort foods. I am in an Under Graduate program through Liberty University Distance learning program. I have 2 teenage daughters and 2 adult sons living at home and my life is full of stress as well. I would love to have a buddy to stick with - we can do this together - lets connect so we can call of email rather than eat - just like right now - I'm here chatting instead of doing what I want to do and that is going in the kitchen and eating the box of donuts my husband just brought home! The kids are raising money for a youth even at church and they are selling donuts -
Lets commit to doing this together!!!
