3 down... 37 to go.

I dreaded weighing myself this morning. I hate stepping on the scale, not because I'm ashamed of myself, but because I think there's a stigma attached to actually seeing the number pop up. Since I have to track my weight every week on the Jenny Craig plan, I knew I couldn't avoid it. So after a big sigh of anticipation, I sucked it up and stepped on.

I didn't believe it when I looked down at the first bright red numbers. "That's three fewer pounds than I weighed last week," I thought to myself. "It can't be!" So I tried again... and again... and there it was... the same number... the most amazing number I've ever seen in my life.

The light bulb went off bigtime. "I'm really doing it," I thought.

It's only been one week, but so far, this plan is by far the easiest one I've ever followed. Not only are the meals actually *gasp* good, but I feel like I'm eating all day. Instead of pizza and fries, it's carrots, yogurt, peanut butter and chocolate cake (yes -- cake!!!).

I think I could get used to this...
