Wow, it is amazing to see how things change in two years. Two years ago, I was still at USC finishing up my Master’s degree and applying to Ph.D. programs. And I weighed 285 lbs, which got me to join Jenny Craig with Mom!
It is interesting talking with my friends here at Tennessee who have asked me about what it is like to be on Jenny Craig, and they assume that I have always looked the way that I do. I tell them that I used to be a thrower and competed in track for ten years, and was a lot bigger. They wouldn’t believe me until I showed them the pictures. But it is also good for me to look at these pictures as well. It is a good reality check to look back to get a perspective of how much I have changed. Well, I definitely got that today! Mom and Dad sent me my before picture back in November 2006 when I first joined Jenny Craig, and here it is:
All I can say is– WOW!!!! I have changed a lot! The picture on the right is from July of this year after I made my first goal weight. It is good to look back to where you have come from, but also look ahead on where you want to go. That’s what I am doing on Jenny Craig. I have a few more pounds to go, it is going to be hard, but I am keeping my eye on the prize! Going on Jenny Craig was the best thing that I could have done for my health and overall fitness level. Plus, it is so much fun to shop for smaller clothes and look fabulous! 🙂
Hope you all are having a great day!
Best Wishes,
Karen
