New Me

Most of the people that know me know that I am a pretty private person concerning certain things. In April 2007, I was working at a local law firm and I was fired. I didn't work again until July 2007. I also put on about 30 lbs., which was easy since Nick was gone and Zachary was little. I didn't like the way I looked and I tried other weight loss methods, with no luck. I kept seeing these commercials for Jenny Craig. I knew that if I stuck with the plan, I would be able to lose the weight. I started the program on May 4th. Initially, I was planning on losing 40 lbs., which would have put me at the weight I was when I graduated from high school. As the program progressed and I started losing the weight, I decided that 40 lbs was too much to lose. I re-evaluated and decided that 30 lbs was better. So far I have lost 25 lbs. And it has been the easiest diet I have been on. There is no thinking about the plan or the food. Everything is given to you and you add in fresh grocery items. I have weekly meetings with a consultant, who has been very supportive. I had all these clothes in my closet from before Zachary was born and even after that I haven't been able to wear. I can now fit in those clothes and I'm even buying clothes that are smaller than those. I like the way I look now and am happy that I did this.
