    Eek! Had some Oreos yesterday. :break_diet: Oh well. I left off my cheese on toast that my menu allows, so hopefully it evened out somehow. Being at home so much lately is definitely triggering boredom eating. I need to find a way to combat it! Endless cups of tea in the afternoon tend to...

    Thanks for the encouragement! I knew I needed to come back to this forum!:D I want to buy a new dress in a smaller size for the big BBQ we are planning at home! Can't wait! I had a perfect day on Jenny Craig yesterday - it has been awhile since I didn't sneak in an extra. I love that my...

    Well I disappeared for a few weeks, didn't hold myself accountable to my diary, and didn't have impressive losses. Oh well. I lost just the same, and I am back on it 100% now! No cheating! I just read back at how excited I was losing a bit almost daily while not cheating on my diet one...

    Jenny Craig

    Hi Jane, I have been on Jenny Craig for about a month now and it would be great to have someone to discuss it with! I have not been great about updating for the last couple of weeks, but plan to start again as I had better losses when I was keeping a diary! Hope it is going well for you, looks...

    Not at all! Keep posting! Feedback is really nice, I feel like I'm sharing my little celebrations! Today I made it to my first 10 lbs! I'm very excited. Also very nervous, because I have a friends birthday dinner at a churrascaria tonight. All you can eat buffet of sides, and barbecued...

    I'm not sure about rewards! I think losing the weight and fitting into my clothes better will be a massive reward in itself! Maybe new books? I don't know, and non-food or drink related ideas? I just fell off the wagon in the biggest way yet so far... Went out and bought a Magnum ice...

    Ooh, I also made myself a list of goals yesterday - I have 50! Some in stones lost, some in pounds, percentages of both my total body weight and weight to lose, BMI targets etc... I know it sounds a bit crazy, but now instead of reaching my next goal in a month or two I'm likely to reach them...

    Good diet day yesterday and day two of aqua aerobics! It's surprising how easy it is to tweak my knee even during low impact exercise - I can't wait to see my orthapaedic surgeon again! I want this fixed! Still, doing as much of a class as I can and improvising when movements get painful is...

    Helle's Diary

    Yesterday was a pretty good day. I had my consultation and felt really good about it for the first time. I also got lower calorie menus, but hopefully I won't need them if my knee can handle my new routine! I did a lot of walking (shopping!:D) and went to my first aqua aerobics class! It was...

    Pink - Tripping on pebbles rather than climbing mountains

    It's so hard to be around other people eating delicious food isn't it!?! I have been lucky so far... I HATE seafood but my husband loves it, so since I have been on Jenny Craig he brings home fish nearly every night or orders sushi! But then last night he came home with brie and saucisson -...

    Helle's Diary

    Woo hoo! I am going to declare every weekend I didn't go off my diet a massive victory! Man it was hard! I had no idea how much my social life really revolves around food and drink. Barbecue here, dinner with friends there, meeting my husband for drinks, steak and red wine on a Friday...

    I am sticking to this thing so well! That's four perfect days I think... Better be a noticeable difference on the scale come Monday! I would love to be able to push it at the gym, but my leg is beyond fussy. I have a year old tibial plateau fracture (right smack in the middle of the knee)...

    Another perfect day on the Jenny Craig diet yesterday... But then I snuck a peek at my weight this morning and I gained a pound! I guess that's why you are not supposed to peek mid-week! Even though I know that everyone fluctuates like that it's still a bit disappointing since I am watching...

    Wow! I have just peeked through your diary - what an inspiration! I am loving the success stories on this forum, you all make it seem much less out of reach! :)

    Pink - Tripping on pebbles rather than climbing mountains

    Good for you! Inspiring workout! Wish I could do the same, but until I sort my knee power-walking is as good as it gets... Keep it up!

    Maybe ;) but going to stay anonymous here! It's fun, and nice to have my own schedule but sometimes I crave a 'real' job after being cooped up at home alone all day! And with nobody around it's harder to check my munching habits... SO. Two perfect days! I am not going to hold myself to...

    Freelance features for womens magazines mostly, but have a novel going on the side as well. :) So... I lost a pound this week. Considering that I lost it a bit over the weekend it's not entirely surprising, but I was still disappointed. I did fairly well last week and into the weekend, but...

    Helle's Diary

    Thanks for the good wishes! I have been on a very late schedule lately (husband works 11-8ish and I am a writer!) so I have to adjust my eating habits to keep me going until around midnight. I had a wonderful day yesterday, but found myself starving at 11 and I had a small pudding just...

    The Jenny Craig Journey

    I have just started Jenny Craig again after being on and off since the end of April - it was a panic start just before flying away for 3 weeks for my wedding - and will definitely watch for your posts! Very helpful to see how someone else is doing on it! Good luck getting back on track :)

    Typical lifelong dieter here... But this time it's for real!:D Always been a bit on the heavier side and have tried a few diets over the years - Slim Fast, poor college student, Diet Chef and Weight Watchers to name a few - with varying degrees of success. I usually have more motivation to...
