You really do not see what others see Jenny! You’re legs are awesome, as is your tummy!
I’m your height and think im 10 lbs more than you and all I am constantly comparing myself to others that is makes me feel bad all the time. I figure you are about 110lbs, if that. Of course I don’t compare myself to fat people; only the perfect body people at my gym with the flattest stomachs.
110?! HA! no way. i am not so light. ive always weighed MORE than i looked like i weighed. even fat.
my belly has skin. and ick. oh well. not doing anything about it at this point. it is all ok and all in good fun. xo.
You crack me up! Our thighs are shaped the same way! Oy! LOL XO
haha..im so sorry!!!!
Thank you Jenny for making me cry and laugh in the same 6 minutes. It really saddened me to see someone who was always beautiful regardless of body size still having the same issues that I do have right now. I’m not skinny, I’m big. I hate looking at myself in the mirror or on video just because I hate what I see. But even with supervised diets and exercise, I can’t lose weight. So it made me cry. That someone who could accomplish more than I could ever dream of doing still has those issues. Made me feel like even if I could, it would be useless, as I’d still feel that way. *sigh*
I still love you anyways.
Forgive me. And plse don’t misunderstand. My life is MOSTLY different not fat. Which is why I’m insane because I dont want to go back… I have flaws ofcourse but I’m so much more secure in my skin now. My stress level as high as it gets is lessened bc I can always find something to wear.
Plse don’t give up on your quest for better health and self worth. You’re a winner and articulate and I appreciate your pointing out to me how ungrateful I seem about the body I have now. I do appreciate it every day.
Plse dont give up. Keep searching for what will work for you. Go at it one meal at a time.
Email me whenever. And thanks again for your insightful words.
I don’t think ungrateful is the proper word. I think that critical may be better. Nobody is perfect. Everyone knows it. Even though I’m 6’3″ and 375 pounds, I have accepted that I will always be big. (I was born big, was always taller, and it’s a family genetic trait, not my eating habits that made me fat. I eat very healthy foods in moderate portions, making do with what I can.)
I just wonder if there is a part of both of us, with our different backgrounds, and different childhoods that forces our minds to be critical of our appearance to this day. (I’m turning 40 this year, so I’m not too younger than you… and yes, I’ve read “Whateverland”.) From a medical standpoint, I’m not quite healthy as an ox, but I don’t have cardiac issues, outside of just being out-of-shape. My body has grown with my size, and I just wonder if I’m trying to fight a battle that I may not be meant to win. You did fight that battle, and you came out even more sexy than you were to begin with, and I think you know that, but like many people, it’s just a matter of believing it.
i think you are a rockstar. i am working to believe. i said to my son as we left a store today and i saw my reflection that it is still odd to not see the former me… glad you dont have cardiac issues and you will know what to do for you ive no doubt. just remember the battle never ends whether fat or thin… so no harm in battling toward less fat. that’s how i see it.. xo.
You are the rockstar, Jen.. To quote one of my favorite songs, “I’m just a singer in a rock n’ roll band…”
I think that people sometimes have distinguishing between self-image and self-confidence. We both have self-confidence in droves… (you go on world-wide satellite radio, I’ve done improv and karaoke) but our self-images are crap.
But I do think you are right, that the battle really doesn’t end, we’re just at different points in the war…
What type of heart monitor do you use? I’m looking at buying one but don’t like the idea of having to wear anything around my chest.
i use the polar heart rate monitor. and yup…goes around my chest just under my boobs/bra. but im used to it. total necessity as far as im concerned!
Jenny, WHY? RU so SELF-ABSORBED? It’s always ALL ABOUT YOU AND YOUR DRAMA!!! Do you have any idea how empty and supersillious you sound?
Coco,
Perhaps you don’t understand what a personal blog is – it’s Jenny’s space to talk about what is going on in her life. If you don’t like it, then don’t read her blog. Don’t take your insecurities out on her, because she is a lovely and genuine person, and you are just an ass.
Hi! That’s great, but I just want to say that not everybody has high speed internet. I only have dial-up internet, and so I cannot watch the videos. Please try to remember all of us who do not have high speed internet. It seems we are being left behind by the rest of the world.
Hey Jennie
What did you decide to do with your office? Are you decorating it or just leaving it for now?
Jeorgee
Leaving it. Little by little itll fill up.
What coco said was what i was thinking but didn’t think it was very nice to say. I know you’ve heard it before but you have turned into the person that used to make fun of you. Hmmm… what is worse: a larger person with a nice personality or a thinner person with a hideous personality.
My gosh. I don’t make fun of anyone for his or her size. And any shift in personality has to do with my feeling more secure in my skin (no pun intended)Only because I’m not fat today. But there’s an abundance of insecurity still in me. Yeesh and duh! and sure, I’m constantly working to better myself. Aren’t we all?! I also try to help everyone /anyone I can. I don’t have answers necessarily all the time but I will always offer compassion and a listening ear.
It is all too cliche for someone to be upset with me for changing my body. Change of any sort is tough- I know!
It’s Jenny’s Show, so of course it’s her drama. She is honest and talks about the daily stuff that we all go through. I love the drama. It takes the focus away from my own. If you want to listen to politics then change the channel OR listen to something else like Doctor radio or one of the other sirius channels.
you are right about everything, and so is the other replier. I was just thinking about what coco said. it made me think that there are 2 themes that are discussed daily on here that probably get old after a while. It’s the weight and the insecure topics. we are all insecure. we all eat. it’s not really a discovery to hear someone else is human, too. Other topics I like hearing you talk about is music and positive inspiration. Tell old family stories, etc…There is just only so many times you can discuss weight and emotions before you start using the blog/radio as a therapeutic outlet for the host.
my blog IS a therapeutic outlet for me… in part. that’s i think the point of many blogs. my radio show is honest depiction of whatever i’m going through. always has been. been doing it in some form for 6.5 years. old family stories will undoubtedly lead to more dead mother talk which i am certain will bother some people. i can’t cater to anyone specifically so i have to just talk about what i want/feel in the moment/that day.
i am emotional. i will always talk emotions. i think that’s probably why many women feel connected to me. i am not ashamed or embarrassed to show how emotionally available/open/insane i am. my hope is my being this way may liberate someone else who’s feeling more closed up and not happy about it.
“ME” is the operative word! Every entry you make is about Jenny! IF YOU NEED A THERAPUTIC OUTLET, GO SEE A SHRINK!!!
No wonder Alexis and most of the old radio show audience can’t stand you!!! I’d dump you as friend as well!!! YOU ASS!!!
Thank you. True, can’t please everyone. I think you are doing a great job trying. And you have a positive attitude that many like. That’s probably why people sort of miss Alexis and you. She balanced out the tone which was probably the formula to your show. Who knows…
Great honest video, have you ever tried spin class? Especially one with interval training (heart rate up and down), I think you would love it, esp with great teacher, and great music! They are so much fun, and while I never enjoyed exercise before, even the elliptical is okay now because I wear the heart rate monitor and try and work as hard as I do in spin class.
All these people that come to a site called JUST JENNY and are hating on the topics being Jenny centric are piles of wasted cells not given the proper brain power to guide them. They would write to the crew of “that’s so raven” and rant about there being too much raven…
Love
It truly amazes & saddens me that some people (and in my opinion, way too many) are so comfortable in being critical of others. Are they as critical of themselves? Are they as self aware as you appear to be? It truly blows my mind that someone can think that a personal blog shouldn’t have posts containing me and I. Unreal.
Something I learned through my many years of living on this earth is that not everyone is going to like me. No matter what Jenny does and says somebody will take offense of it. The subject could involve politics, sex, raising children.
What Jenny brings to the table is a great wit, a wonderful humorist, a truly caring person who wants the best for you. She wants you to be happy and live your life to the fullest. How does that make her a terrible person? Jenny shows her flaws, sometimes puts herself down, and stands up for what she believes in. Does that make her a terrible person?
She is very sensitive, and will cry at a drop of a hat. She cries because she relates and cares about you…her listeners. She talks about her family a lot because she truly loves them. Does that make her a terible person?
I think not…
thank you len. you totally get me. xo.
Hey Jenny
I think your show is fantastic….I love the “me” stuff. I agree with the Maria, most blogs are about the “blogger”.
Anyways, if these people don’t like your show, they should CHANGE THE CHANNEL! I wish your show was two hours long * BTW if you listen to Broadminded, Jane Pratt, Old Rosie shows etc…they are all centered around them at some point….That is what makes them sooooo great. The shows let us know that we are all human beings. We all come from other walks of life, but we all have similarities. Maybe not all the time, but definitely some of the time…. Oh, and I love Janette Barber too!–Oh, and Jenny, my kids think you look really young!
