I just had my first JC dinner in a couple years. I was really hungry, and the little entree looked so very small. So, I sauteed fresh spinach, garlic, green onion and red pepper in pam and added some spices. I microwaved the chicken fettuccine, but then sauteed it with the veggies... added a side of asparagus.. it was delicious and I am very satisfied.
Cheers,
Gretchen

I always try to volumize when I can! I've done jenny in the past and know I can get bored quickly, so this time, I'm volumizing right from the get go. It definately helps.
My Jenny History:
2006: 30lbs lost
2009: 10 lbs lost
2010: 20 lbs lost
January 2012: Came back again to take off the 20lbs I've gained plus more!

It sure does. You wouldn't believe the plate of broccoli I ate tonight to avoid the Superbowl munchies.

Good for you!!!! Volumizing not only helps fill you up but experimenting with veggies and spices and cooking methods also adds more enjoyment to the JC meals.

Good job Gretchen!! I know that i like a lot of food. That is how i got up to 264 pounds and why i have gained it back several times. Therefore this time i am making sure i volumize big time. I get a bag of Birdseye Asian Medley and stirfry the whole bag while my Jenny meal is cooking. Then the veggies go on 3/4 of my plate and the Jenny meal 1/4. I have a full plate but most of it is veggies!! I use different spices to make changes so i don't get bored!
