  • I would love to be a part of something like this! I pretty much need all the help I can get right now. :/ I will email you soon. :) Thanks!
  • Actually, i've been off Medifast for about 6 months... Worked WONDERS! Loved it. Would love to do it again... stopped due to some serious family issues which resulted in me essentially covering costs for my parents which meant no more Medifast money in my budget. On Medifast I felt the most in control than I ever have in…
  • I should also maybe mention that I am currently going through behavior modification because of my emotional eating problems and am working on getting over an "addiction" to food so something "restrictive" but with whole food items would be a viable option for me. :)
  • I already don't eat a lot of dairy... really only cheese right now which I would be fine to give up. I also don't eat many legumes so I don't have a problem with that either. I'm concerned about the wheat, but I do have a gluten sensitivity that would probably benefit of my giving up wheat. lol These reasons are part of…
  • Yeah, i'm planning on still counting calories and using MFP to log everything. I will look into the carb cycle thing. I am mostly doing this to cut out processed foods that have all that nasty chemical crap in them.
  • Yeah, i'm definitely expecting my grocery bill to increase significantly. Worth it to me though to have my health. Thanks for the information. Maybe a transition plan is something I should look into.
  • I'm 24 and looking to lose about 90lbs total. You can add me if you'd like. :)
  • Woo! I'm game. :) SW: 220 GW: <212 Self-Challenge: So some kind of workout every day including the following: -Kazaxe at least 2 times a week -Running at least 3 times a week (c25k) -Weightlifting at least 2 times a week -Walking/yoga at least 1 time a week (as a rest day) -Try a NEW type of exercise like piloxing or a…
  • Your words are all so encouraging. Thank you so much! I just can't find that "other thing" to run to instead of food when I feel emotions flood in. It's hard for me to put it out of my mind for even an hour. I'm at least glad that i'm not the only person with issues like this. Sometimes I feel like i'm the lone whale…
  • I can't even BEGIN to explain how similar this is to my situation. My mom is diabetic...has lost some toes, almost lost a foot, has bleeding in her eyes, etc because of the uncontrolled diabetes and when I started losing weight she judged me. She would also seem dissapointed in me becuase I was trying to be healthier. In…
  • Good luck!!! The first few days are the WORST, but it gets SO much better! I also agree that logging everything on MFP helps so much.. .I usually log my meals for 3 days at a time so I am aware of what i'm eating over the next couple of days so I know what I need to buy and also know what meals to have available. If you…
  • I have a Shorkie (Shih Tzu/Yorkie) and a Shihpoo (Shih Tzu/Poodle). We pay a guy to take them for an hour walk during the day 3 times a week since my husband and I both work full time... But we try to walk them ourselves for another 30mins to an hour in the evenings if it isn't freezing...trying to get my Shorkie to walk…
  • Female. 5'7 Highest Weight: 237 Current Weight: 218 Lowest Weight: 195 (back when I was 14) Goal weight: 135-140 for initial weight loss, then back up to 150 with muscle. ;)
  • Wrap a towel around my body after a shower without having bits and pieces exposed. ;)
  • Hi there! So far I love medifast! I have been on plan for 16 days and have lost 17.4 lbs so far. I love it! After the inital start where you feel deprived and hungry, it is a super easy program to follow. I use a variety of spices in the foods for now to spruce them up so they aren't so bland. Good luck on the program to…
  • As a little one, at 3 years old, I am reported to have gone out to the living room when my mom had a bunch of friends (from church) over and started looking under a chair for a doll repeating "Where the hell is my f***ing *kitten*?!" at least 4 times.
  • I lost 14lbs so far and nothing feels any looser...going to take me at LEAST another 10lbs or so I think. And that is with me losing an inch of my hips and 2 inches off my waist. Makes me think that my pants were probably just too small before i started losing weight. ;)
  • I'm a real food addict. Straight up. I was raised to be addicted to food, gained weight as a result. Highly addicted to cake which isn't exactly as good as being addicted to something like celery. ;) Overcoming it now. I can tell that my food addiction has/had a real grip on my life. It's amazing how much time I have now…
