A Fun Survey and Other Stuff

Tomorrow is my 2nd weigh in and I am an absolute nervous wreck.  Jenny craig is so freakin expensive and I've rationalized that if it works it's worth it BUT what if it doesn't?  Should I just quit?  I am on a 4 week free trial through my insurance (just pay the ridiculous amount for food) but after that I have to fork over the big bucks for a membership.  It's a huge investment to make, money that could be going in my retirement account or mini-me's college account, ya know?  Decisions decisions.  I feel sick worrying this week wasn't worth it and I won't lose any.  Ugh.

On to fun stuff.  I stole this survey from a very cool blog Beer, Dogs and Getting Healthier.  Here we go:
