GTA Buddies are you out there?
Just before I joined Jenny Craig I finally had a doctor tell me that my weight isn't all my fault. What a revelation! Metabolism, age, white collar jobs, even living in bedroom communities can all be contributing factors to our weight gain.
Then I met my Jenny Consultant who told me that once engaged in the cycle, it's hard to get out of without a strong support network. The more weight we carry, the more fuel we need to run the size of our bodies. The more we fuel we take in, the more we gain... How did I not know this?
I'm just beginning my third week on the program and have lost 11 pounds. While my goal weight is still way out on the horizon, I feel empowered. At last I've found help. Not judgement, or some doctor or another saying I need to lose weight but never helping me understand how I got here in the first place.
After all the yoyo dieting that never succeeded, I finally believe I'm going to make it.
I'm really enjoying the menus, the guilt free eating of cake, the crunch factor of little nibbles and the accountability of visiting my consultant each week.
Here's to being just Bold and Beautiful again!
