Ok, I'm doing it! Yesterday I went to JC to sign up so I can lose my 30 pounds by Christmas! (Well, after weighing in it's more like 40lbs!) All and all it was a pretty good experience. I met with the director of the center and she talked to me for about an hour about why I eat, how much I eat, and together we came up with a personalized "plan" for me. What I really liked is that they use
my goal as my official goal weight, not a BMI chart that says at 5'4" I'm suppose to weight 112 lb. Oh pleaaassseee! But, don't be fooled that JC is first and foremost a business. After our talk, she pulled out the different types of membership and based on my goals she felt that the Platinum Membership would be perfect. For $399, you're kidding me. No way in hell! That doesn't include the cost of food!! I explained to her that I would rather do the $6 per week trail plan and then later on, if I'm feeling success, I would purchase a membership. She asked me why. Why lady, because I don't have 400 bucks laying around!! I stuck my ground and she was fine with it. She pulled out a pre-planned menu for a 1200 calorie diet. I'm a very picky eater so we substituted some meals and I said I would go ahead and try some stuff that I woudn't normally eat. I bought one weeks worth of food and some vitamins and walked out spending $150. I wanted to try to keep it under 100 so next week I'm not going to buy some of her snacks. I've heard a lot of people sub Jenny snacks for the 100 calorie packs. A heck of a lot cheaper.
So, here's what I get to eat on day one:
Breakfast:
Multigrain Hoop Ceral w/ one cup of nonfat milk
Snack:
JC Anytime Bar, Fruit
Lunch:
Cheesy Enchilada
Salad w/ JC dressing
Dinner:
Chicken Carbonara
Salad w/ JC dressing
Snack:
Chocolate Bar
I just had breakfast and cereal was very good. Tasted just like Cheerios. I will review the rest of the food tnoight!!!
