I was channel surfing and heard a Vancouver talk show hosts say that she had just had lunch with Jann and that she had lost a lot of weight. Has anyone seen her recently?

Yes, I saw her in concert around Oct/Nov timeframe (05). I love her. And, yes she had lost some weight. She has been trying to lose weight for quite some time now though and apparently things started really falling into place with her once she started running. She is now an avid runner and she is a big salad eater.

She hasn't had surgery or anything like that....just has added a lot of exercise to her regime.

Wow, someone else who is a Jann Arden fan?! Yay!

Love her. I've never seen her though, not even a picture.

I'm so glad she's doing it on her own terms. I can remember her saying once that she wasn't concerned about her weight because she was active and healthy, but others were sure concerned about it.

Has anyone seen or heard her and Vicki Gabereau together? Talk about two peas in a pod. They're both nuts!

I agree. Jann Arden is FREAKIN' HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

If she wasn't performing as a singer, she would rake up as a comedian!

I was just reading a little about her... couldn't find anything recent, so I don't know if she's lost weight, but here's what she said (apparently she does a Ask Jann column in Elle Canada) in response to a girl who said "I know you're struggling with your weight... don't you ever feel like... blah blah":

To tell you the truth, I've never had problems with my weight. It's the press who seem to have the problem. I'm always happy just to be alive. I look after myself. I'm active and I'm always trying to be better than what I was the day before. Don't worry about losing weight. You need to get walking, but do it for your mind and your soul. Life isn't about how much you weigh, but how good you feel about yourself. Don't beat yourself up and don't compare yourself with anyone else. Be gentle with your soul and gentle with your heart. Remember, a healthy body is a perfect body.

I've always liked her too. ;)

I finally got a chance to see a picture of her slimmer bod. She's on the cover of the latest Chatelaine. She looks good. Anyone else see it?

Love her too. She really is hilarious! I saw a magazine yesterday with her on the cover and she has lost weight...quite a bit in fact. I do know that a few years ago she and her brother opened a diner type place in Calgary that served yummies like meatloaf, mashed potatoes, mac & cheese old school style. Comfort food. Not sure if it is still around but the menu choice reads "Jann". Welcoming and Comforting.

I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up with a CBC talk show. I think she was on The Hour not that long ago...mmm...George Stroumboulopoulos (sp?)talk about yummy. I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crackers!! ( I have no idea what that means, I just heard some cool kids say it once).:) :target: :guess

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
