I decided to stick to the 1200 calories to see if I can eat "normal" food first without gaining before I jump into 1500 calories. But, as of now, unless I did the balanced diet plan wrong; I gained weight from yesterday. It's just a pound, but it makes me wonder if it was still too much ...

Today is my Dad's birthday. He cracks me up because he always "says" he wants a low-fat birthday cake but I kid you not, when it's low-fat, then he says it's just OK (which is code for he doesn't like it). So every year it's a challenge to truly make his cake low-fat but to hear a respon...

Yesterday I went for some much needed Christmas shopping and lunch with just the girls. It was also my first time away from my son with a sitter that was not family. I was comforted because I ride with her mom at my barn. She's a dedicated dancer so I thought her dedication hopeful...

Did you hear who the new Jenny Craig Spokeswoman is?! Mariah Carey! Kirstie Alley was the one who inspired me to try Jenny Craig. I bet Mariah's 30 pound weight loss will inspire many others to join as well. I believe in the philosophy of this company and I can't say enough p...

So now what? I've met my goal weight - where do I go from here? There's no doubt that in the back of my mind I worry, what if I gain it all back? First of all, just because I reached my goal does not mean I have an excuse to go crazy now. It's definitely a life-long commitmen...
