hello you wonderful shakers! i have voraciously researched mf and have secretly travelled over much of this forum. i have never wanted to join a web forum before...but here i am! i have just ordered my first one month supply and it should be here soon. i am 26 years old and have stood at 5'2" since the seventh grade :lol: i was always a very petite little thing until i went to college...then gradually the years of eating junk food and no activity have caught up with me :( i am sad to admit that i am now about 50# overweight, which is even worse because i am so short! although i do have a wonderful man who tells me i am beautiful every day, i still know that i am a lot bigger than i should be. i have tried so many diets and diet pills and have joined gyms, all to no avail...i may have lost a few # here and there, but as we all know, it seems to sneak back during the night :shock:
anyway, i know that i am a rambler, but i just wanted to share a little background.
i feel very good about the medifast plan. i think it will be just what i need! i literally feel that i need some perfectly thought out, tested, proven and balanced eating plan. i try hard to eat healthy, but then i give in to the oreo or hagaan daz monsters! i know that it will be easier to do this with the help of such a wonderful and caring group. i am so happy to join you and i will also in turn offer my support! anyway, thanks for listening.
Yes I Can!!

Welcome, ladybug!! I'm the same height as you (but a couple of decades older), so I know what a difference even a few pounds can make on our frames. You sound like you have a great attitude, so you'll do well.

Be prepared, though. A lot of us shorties lose more slowly than the tall folks. So don't be too disappointed if you don't drop 15 pounds your first week!

Hi ladybug! Welcome to the group. I am also vertically challenged! Yep, I'm 5'2" as well but I'm pleased as punch at how well this plan is working for me. With your great attitude and adherence to the plan I'm sure you'll see great results too.

Keep us posted once you receive your grub!

LADYBUG! Cute name,

Can't wait until you get your 'eats' and start posting. :puter:

Another shorty here. I was 5'2" but only 5 decades older than you, I have shrunk and inch! Honest! :oops:

So welcome, sweet bug, the support here will help keep you going! :hi5:

Welcome Ladybug!!! You are going to do great on this plan!!! I've done all the diets and done well on some, not on others - but never quite reached my ultimate goal. These people are great on this board and will help you along the way. Reading through old posts was the best thing you could do - you already have a head start!!!

Looking forward to reading about your accomplishments!
