Hey from Champaign Il. Good for you getting started! I just started again 2 weeks ago! I love Jenny Craig- only thing that has ever worked for me! But i have been away gaining weight for a few years! Now I am back!

Hi Gals,

I just restarted the program today. I'm from Des Plaines. With my hectic lifestyle Jenny is the best program for me as I don't have time to prepare meals much and my husband and I are on different schedules - dinner-wise. The convenience just works for me. My problem is sticking with something and boredom eating!! I'm just chugging away on water now. Would love to check in with both of you every week and see how we're all progressing.

Hi,
I am now at 11 weeks and reached my goal of 30 pounds by my birthday! I still have a lot to go - but this time I know I am going to do it. Jenny Craig has made this so easy this time and I really believe it is the fact that I do not have to make the decision of what am I going to make for dinner tonight. My family and I are all on such different schedules as well so this program is very easy to stick with.
I hope you both are doing very well on the plan as well.

At first I was afraid I would be bored of the same foods by now but I have found ways to switch it up by adding different veggies, sauces, and I have even added salsa to the rising crust pizza.

I do not know about you but just eating better (healthier) - has made a big difference on how I feel. I sleep better and am so much happier.
Please reply back and let me know how you are doing with the plan.

Hope to hear from you soon!!!

I'm in Carol Stream---your neighbor. I've been going to Jenny Craig in Bloomingdale for a year now and hit my goal several months ago. I really like my consultant and feel like she's the reason I made my goal and am keeping it off. I go on Sunday morning and that keeps me on track all weekend.

Which center do you go to? Are you having success?

Hi Neighbor!
I go to the Bloomingdale location as well, on Saturday mornings. I agree that the people at the center are the ones that keep me on focus as well. They are huge motivators in my journey - I hope to be at my goal this time next year as well. I am down 32 1/2 pounds and have more to go but, know that this time I will do it and keep it off!

Congrats on you making goal. I feel great now - I can not even imagine what goal will feel like. Did you ever get tired of the food?

Hope to talk to you soon.

Hi everyone,

I live in Crystal Lake and actually go to Gilberts quite often to visit family. I've been on plan for a month, but won't have my 4th wi until Sunday as I had to go out of town this past week and won't be back until tomorrow. I've lost 14 lbs so far and am very happy with the results. I'm glad I love most of the food because I'm going to be at this for quite a while as you can see from the amount of weight I need to lose below. I'm hopeful I'll make 10% though when I wi on Sunday. Fingers crossed!!!

Sounds like everyone here is doing great and I'd love to be a part of the group and be there for you guys in good times and bad as well.

I'll be posting my wi results on Sunday morning, talk to you all soon.
Liz

Hi All!
I too, go to the Bloomingdale JC, what a wonderful team they are. I'm in Wood Dale, I go to the Center on Tuesday mornings. This is my second time with JC, I had lost 63 lbs but gained it back after health issues. So, here I am starting again, down 2.4 lbs and counting. Hi to RNStaceyB, you are my neighbor. Good Luck to all of you. :D
