Hi, my name is Lisa and I am in Edmonton Jenny Mayfield. I have struggled with weight for most of my adult life. I have 3 children and a wonderful supportive husband. I am glad I made this commitment but scared too that I will fail. It is so hard getting these negative thoughts out of my head but I am not letting it get to me. I am pushing through. Yesterday was my first day and I was SO hungry. I wanted to eat anything and everythning!!! I am on day 2 and I pray this will be an easier day!!!

I have my first weigh in on Friday!!!

Can't wait to hear from all you ladies!!!

Hello Ladies,

My name is Tammy and I am from Strathmore, AB and I am on my 2nd week. I am 34 and I work from home, which is wonderful to be at home with my son but a nightmare to stay out of the fridge some days. Will be easier when hubby goes away to work later this month and all the food is out of the fridge. Had a disaster of a day yesterday, it was my son's 2nd birthday party...although I stayed away from the food I had 3 drinks. oh well back on it today right?
I lost 5lbs my first week so that was awesome, I know that pace won't last.
Good luck ladies and I hope to see some post soon
Tammy

Great to see Albertans in here!

Hey everyone:)
My name is Tianna Im from Lethbridge Alberta:) today was my second day on jenny craig and i realized i needed to do something after I woke up one morning and realized i had gained like 55-60 pounds! I said 2010 is the year where i get over that bad breakup and make it about me and my goals:) so here i am:)
ps i eat a ton of veggies otherwise i find im quite hungry to:)

Hello,

My name is Catherine, I joined JC last thursday, December 31, 2009. Crazy day to join if you ask me, but I had to start the new year with a positive attitude, a plan and make it all about me. I have my first weigh-in tomorrow, only 6 days on plan, so ... I'm a wee bit nervous. I have to lose 60 pounds.

I'm no expert Tianna, as I just started myself, I've found myself hungry late at night a few times this week. I went back over my menu and counted all the calories I ate on those days and found that I was under my calorie intake for the day. I would just top up at that point.

Anyway, good luck to you ... There's a forum about volumizing your meals, there's some really good ideas in there.

Take care.

Hey thanx Catherine:) hope i got your name right:S haha anyways thanx for the advice:)

Just wondering how everyone is doing???

I just started my third week and so far so good. Down 8 lbs in the first 2 weeks, so I'm pretty happy about that. 5.6 my first and 2.4 the second.

I'm trying to get back to working out. I made it to the gym twice this week, which felt really good. My arms are killing me so I hope i did something right. I weigh in again on Wednesday.

I'm a nurse and back at work tonight for 3 night shifts. I hope you all have a great weekend and stay on plan.
Remember your goals and that summer will be here in 5 or so months.

Take care,

Catherine
