I would love to get more people to follow along with me and the same in return so that we can provide even more support thru this journey. Let me know your…

Trying to Trust The Process
From my blog at www.rejenuvate.com We are 4 days away from the next big weigh in, and I have to admit I am feeling a bit frustrated. I know that I will not be hitting anywhere near the numbers lost as I did the last month. Mentally, I had prepared for that, but from the scale standpoint I don’t know if I am going to be…

I wonder what skinny sex is like?
Do you think it will be better? worse? Definitely different...right. I only know fat girl sex....which ain't bad, but what an interesting concept. Many new adventures of the thinner Jen. I'm a list person, and I started one. I am hoping that it will give me the additional motivation that I need. Some people look at the…

Accepting What I Can't Control
When it rains, it pours it seems in my world. This week has been one of the downpour weeks. Both personally and professionally it has hit. I have watched people who I care about hurting and felt helpless in many ways. That is my biggest weakness. I want to fix EVERYTHING. I want to make it all better. As I received a phone…

When It Starts To Come Naturally
I was really stumped for something to write about today. I feel as though I have been a little bah humbug the last couple posts, and that is not what I want to be in life or reflect on the regular here. I asked one of my besties at work what to write about and she gave me a great idea. She told me to talk about how…

My Name is Jen and I am an emotional eater
This is from my blog at www.rejenuvate.com Over the last couple of days, I have started to write a blog post multiple times. I have been distracted though. One of the things I wanted to do with this blog was to be completely transparent in my thoughts and feelings. That has been hard as of late because I know so many of my…

On To The Next Month
It might take me some time to come down from the high of last month’s achievements! The response that I received was SOOOO AMAZING last night. I was up late answering emails, checking comments, texting, etc. with all of the well-wishers and followers of the blog. A great day indeed. Today’s focus is the next steps. There…

This Girl Is On Fire
That is my motto for today!!!! I woke up so nervous for the Official weigh in tomorrow. Even though I have cheated and peeked a couple of times this month, my mind starts to wonder and think that maybe I have put on 5 pounds over the weekend, or my eyes were playing a trick on me. Normally I would let this get the best of…

I need friends and support
I am on this journey for my beautiful daughter (9 months). My biggest fear is not being able to be the mommy she needs both mentally and physically. I decided to really put everything out on the table and no longer hide behind my fears, insecurities and inability to be vulnerable. I started a blog www.rejenuvate.com I…

Finding my Beautiful
Mirrors are such a tricky *****. In one way they are a real asset...nobody wants to have their dress tucked in their underwear or the giant piece of poppy-seed in your front teeth, the inch long hag hair that someone from across the room could see......It protects you and gives you the one last look before you present…

Patience is NOT my strong suit
I am coming to realize that one of the biggest battles that I will have during this process will be PATIENCE. I got on the scale again today. I couldn’t stop myself. The number has gone down since the original weigh in…that is great…right?? Somehow I found a way to be upset at the fact that it wasn’t low enough. In the…

Coffessions of my former self
My grandma, who may be the kindest woman who I have ever had the honor of knowing would never call me fat. She always told me how beautiful I was, and would complement the features she liked about me. What she did though was show me a new diet plans on a weekly basis. She would offer to pay for them if I was willing to try…

Rejenuvating Jen - I need accountability
Hey everyone, So I turned 34 a couple weeks ago and have made in essence a New Year of Me Resolution. So I threw caution to the wind and tucked my vulnerability worries away and started a blog with full exposure of my journey that is starting at the hefty size of 304. I am tracking my calories and activity on myfitnesspal…
