Congratulations on choosing Jenny. This program works if you follow it. You sound very motivated and several very good reasons for wanting to loose weight. But you do understand that losing weight takes patience, right? You said you quit other programs because you didn't see results. I hope you don't lose all this good motivation because an average of 1 to 1.5 pounds per week is too slow for you, because that is what you can expect. It is slow, but it is steady and it adds up over time. I have been on Jenny for 17 weeks now and have lost 33 and some change. I gave myself 1 year to lose 74 pounds and it looks like I may do it sooner. The other comment you said that you may be wrong about is "sacrifice". I will admit that all of the JC food is not the greatest, but a lot of it is really good, and to me, any plan that lets you have cheesecake rocks. If you eat as they say, every 2 or three hours with the fruits and snacks, you shouldn't feel hungry. I have not felt like I have sacrificed anything. And I have been on all of the weight loss programs too. This is the only one that has worked for me and made me feel like I can live with it forever. Hope you feel the same. Don't get discouraged if it doesn't go as fast as you think it should. It won't. But go to the forums often. There is a lot of good advice, recipes, friends and folks who have been through this, lost a lot of weight and kept if off for a long time. They are a huge help to me and can be for you too. Good luck and again, welcome to Jenny.

wow, what a great entry! I can relate to so much of what you said. Good for you! One day at a time, here is to you reaching your goals and feeling sassy!
