It isn't all its cracked up to be

Yes, I am doing JC... barely... but I have to admit it HAS helped to get me on track...
I will start with the pro's
  1. I am portioned sized...
  2. I am eating more veggies & fruit
  3. I am drinking more water
  4. I am eating 4-5 times a day
  5. I am aware but not obsessing
  6. The food is there for me to grab when I am on the run (which is most of the time)
  7. I am learning things
Con's
  1. I am having a hard time with the "American food" because I am an avid believer of eating "at home"
  2. JC is American based
  3. They eat differently in America... for example
  4. some of the food is extremely spicy and in cream sauces which  my stomach can't take so I have been having Tums quite regularly
  5. I have never eaten so much sweet stuff in my life
  6. Their prepackaged popcorn and other chippy snacks are so salty I can't eat them
  7. I have a gal that calls me once a week and I can contact her thru email too but so far I haven't been really impressed with her.. I love my WW leader... this gal (my support) lost 40 lbs but so far she hasn't impressed me.  Wonder if I can ask for a different person?
  8. It IS expensive!
In conclusion, I still highly recommend WW but maybe I need to start emailing them and bugging them about weeks of meal plans and grocery lists for those weeks...
For me... I'm stuck for 6 months with JC... that's how long I signed on for.  I will await with abated breath for when they wean me back onto my own food.

P.S. I am glad to see a comment on here... I have not been able to comment on any ones page for some time... blogger is having issues.  Heather - I would have commented many times on yours but all I am able to do is read it - for awhile I wasn't even able to do that...

I don't think Blogger is having the issues. I think it might be your computer If you click on help on the top of your blog page and type in a question there are some answers. I hope this helps and I'm looking forward to lots of comments when you get back in the loop :)
