Hello Fellow Jenny friends!!! Today is Day 1 back on JC for me and I’m having a great great day so far!!!!! Over the last few years I tried to stick to Weight Watchers as well as Medifast and the weight I lost crept back on and then some. I’m at my heaviest weight again and I’m not happy. I decided to buy the year program last night with Jenny and do this right. I refuse to be the fat girl anymore and Jenny will work. Jenny is expensive and I don’t want to waste my money so I will not fail. I will probably come to the threads often for support on days that I want to binge because we all have them!! Can’t wait for my weigh in next Thursday!!! Who else is starting and who is having or has had success on Jenny???

Welcome Melissa! You have such a great attitude, you are going to do AWESOME on Jenny! Definitely come back to the forums often for support, there is such a wealth of encouragement and advice here! I have found GREAT success on Jenny, 53 pounds gone forever with only 42 left to go! You can do it too!

Hi Melissa! It took me over a year....mostly due to the fact I have a thyroid problem, so it slowed my weight loss considerably.
Yes, def let us know how it goes thursday......and a BIG kudos to you for resisting temptation last night.....ROCK ON GIRLFRIEND!!!!

Aww Thank you Kelli !!! You look beautiful girl great job!!!!
Well today is Day 3 and I'm still doing very well. I gave into a small tempation today "ONE" yes "ONE" girl scout cookie! 70 calories that I will burn tonight on the treadmill that's the way I see it. I am really looking forward to weight in Thursday.
I have to admit that this weekend has been major progress for me because it's the first weekend in probably 6 months that I didn't go out to eat somewhere or have any drinks with dinner!!! I'm pretty proud of this!!!!

Melissa, you're kicking butt and you have every reason to be proud!!!
Don't forget to let us know how your WI goes. You're already learning about moderation (and denial) but it will be sooooo worth it when you get to maintenance and knowing that you not only learned how to take it off but more importatly (becaue I'm sure like most of us you've lost on other plans too - how to KEEP it off).
Go get 'em!!! Keep it up!!!!

Thank you Phyllis!!!! I can't wait for weigh in and for my results to start showing. I booked a trip for Disney with my daughter at the end of August and I want to be at goal or close to it by then. I KNOW with the help of JC I will get there.

Disney in August? Hmmm, well, let me put it this way. What you don't lose before you arrive, you'll definitely lose while you're here from all the heat and walking! LOL I'm sure you must be both so excited. It truly is MAGICAL and you will feel just like the child she is. It's where I spent both my 30th and 40th birthdays (and possibly my 50th) because it allowed me to feel like a kid again.
Anyway, keep up your great attitude and determination and you'll surely be happy with the results.
Can't wait until Thursday to hear about the first week.

Hey melissa - I'm also returning. Your first weigh in will be my first day. I've done jenny a few times in the past (as you can see from my siggy) and I've had success every single time. And, the best thing? I've always had success on Jenny. I've never once goine to jenny craig and NOT lost weight - that's a pretty impressive track record.
I've gained 20lbs back and that's what made me go back. Plus I want to have a baby in the near future and know I need to take off some weight before I do so. Jenny is just the best. I've tried to do nutrisystem (similar but food is awful), weight watchers, zone, etc... and nothing works for me, nothing. Jenny does. keep us updated on your journey.
The cool thing about these boards is that they're filled with shrinking people!

2009: 10 lbs lost
2010: 20 lbs lost
January 2012: Came back again to take off the 20lbs I've gained plus more!

I also just started - or I should say "re-started" - I originally joined in 1998 and did really well. Unfortunately the weight has crept its way back on so I am back to get things under control again! When I originally joined there was no internet site, no blogging - this is fantastic for extra support!
Day 3...so far so good!

Alissa welcome back!!! I'm so glad to see that each time you had success with JC that is truly inspiring. I will say that I'm on Day 4 today and I actually "Feel Better"! I don't feel bloated and gross and almost feel detoxed in a sense. I guess that is a good thing??
Irish Girl We are about on the same page you are on Day 3 I'm on Day 4. Have you had any struggles yet? I actually LOVE the food I do have some days I'm hungry but not that much. I loved my lunch today the turkey burger is one of my favorites!!!
