Mellow Mom
WOW!!! You gave yourself the BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER (8 1/2lbs thinner)!!!!
You will be surprised at how much more energy you will have now to attend all of those functions you planned. Starting week 2 on the Medifast I had so much energy that I redecorated my bedroom and cleaned out my closet.
Once I realized that I could focus on the people and not the food "My Life Changed". I had no idea that before Medifast - I would go to functions and stand around the table and eat and eat and eat and not visit much. Now I go to social events visit with people then go to the table once get some food and stay away from the table. I can now enjoy the people around me. ONE OF THE PURKS TO THAT IS - PEOPLE VISIT WITH ME NOW BECAUSE I AM INTERESTED IN THEM & NOT THE FOOD.
You will enjoy the freedom you have when you don't have the weight slowing you down.
