Healthy??

Hubby is going back for a Jenny Craig refresher starting next week.  We both lost our weight (initially) on Jenny Craig.  I'm grateful for this program.  I know it's packaged, processed, extra low calorie, etc.  BUT this worked for me (and us) when NOTHING else did - and I tried it all.  It fit our life at that moment and for a finite time, it's perfectly fine (in my opinion).  If you continue the program through maintenance, you actually STOP eating the packaged foods.  It was the best maintenance program I've used.

I contemplated going back on it with him.  Then I remembered GLUTEN.

It worked for me years ago when my life was crazy ... work, kids, etc and cooking for them and THEN for me, was not an option.  It was easy, mindless and allowed me control over what I ate - you eat the list for the day - period.

Anyway, I LOVE Whole30 and all the fresh, real food.  But, lordy, it's WORK!  I've been in a stretch for a few months where cooking is inconvenient.  Dogs, applications, weekend events to cook, hubby out of town.

I know these are EXCUSES.  I can find time.  I can MAKE time.  The problem is, I'm not.  So my "meals" are loosely meals and it's not having the same effects.  My portions are out of control.  I'm bored with my food choices.

Maybe I'll try the food delivery boxes for a few dinners???  It might be what I need to pull me out of this rut.  Whole30 is lots of shopping, lots of prep and lots of clean up.  It's just me at home most days lately (hubby has been traveling).  All that work, interrupted by dog needs, phone calls.  It's not working at this moment.

Help.  I need some help.  And I need it FAST.  Beach in T-30 days (or something like that).

I'll keep you posted.  Later gators.
