Go far so good

So far my JC program is going good. I do feel hungry at night but I am learning not to eat at night plus that is a big NO NO.

I am also trying to get up early and start eating breakfast. I eat my Jenny Craig food and I am hoping this sticks.

Goal: Lose10 lbs by October 12th.

Yay!!!

Wow. I am excited. I am finally going back on Jenny Craig. I start tomorrow but my appointment is today at 4:30p.m. I have missed the food and the support that I get at my center. I hope to start losing again.

I need to start going to the gym at 3 times a week doing cardio the days I am not working and pooped out. My job has me busy and on my feet so that should help me too.

Back on Jenny Craig for the 3rd time

The Day is finally here. I am going back on the program. It's been a long time since I have been on. I start tomorrow with the food. I hope I can get enough hours to afford it this time. This is my third time on it and I am hoping to stick to it. I also can't wait to try all the new foods they have and finally start losing this weight and looking good for my 10 year class reunion next year.
