Losing weight with Jenny Craig
Friday, 2 July 2004
My Doctor is a bloody idiot!
I've decided that I am definatly going to change my Doctor.

As I have PCOS I had to get a letter from my Dr saying that it was OK for me to go on JC. When I went in he told me that JC was not medically sound but he would sign it for me. He then went on to tell me that I was only fighting my genetics and I should be happy with my weight.....HELLO.... I'm friggin 30 kilos overweight, a very high risk for type 2 diabeties (PCOS related) and your telling me to be happy with my weight! He then went on to tell me that the average person eats around 5 times what they should each day and that the only way for me to be successful with my weight loss is through self control. Yes I can have a hamburger, but only two bites and then I have to through the rest away (year right!). He then asked me what sort of exercise I was doing. I told him usually around 15-30mins on the elleptical trainer and then 20 minutes on the bike, oh and I also try and do a couple of pump classes a week. He then asked me if I thought exercise would help me lose weight of which of course I answered YES! Apparently not according to Dr Idiot. For exercise to make you lose weight you would need to do 6 hours a day, however exercise is good for you so I should keep it up. He then went on to tell me that I should be able to live on a boiled egg a day as the human body is designed to be able to go without food for months on end. At this point I was not going to argue with this Dr because he obviously knew everything. What a stupid thing to say to someone who is trying to lose weight for their health and wellbeing!!! AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!

Anyway I'm not listening to his nonsense as I know that JC is going to help me lose weight and their program will also help me to keep it off forever, no matter how genetically disfunct my body is.....lol.

I am still loving the food and the feeling of being in control. I have had some pretty bad withdrawls from the alcohol but I know that they will go away. It feels great to wake up in the morning with a clear head. I've have been pretty moody which I am putting down to lack of alcohol, but I'm sure that will also pass and I will be back to my happy self before long.

Better get back to work and finish this end of financial year clean up!
