Just recieved my order yesterday!!! I recieved it right before I went to work..so I didn't have a chance to look through everything until after work..which made work go by soooo slllooowwww. I have to admit, last night as I was looking at it all, I was getting kind of scared for some reason, I guess I doubted myself. But I woke up this morning, at 7 o'clock as much as I hated getting up at that time, to get a fresh start and DO THIS! I'm gonna pull through and do this and I know I can!! Gonna measure myself and everything today..probably post a pic or too. Just wanted to tell everyone that I am looking forward to the journey here and having everyone here doing it right along with me!!!!!

You can do it! I'm up early with you. I'm in my 4th week, but this is the first morning I got up early to exercise.

You WILL do it!

Congratulations on starting the medifast, Neeko. I started today too.

Welcome!

[Marseilles]

I'm always up early...dang internal alarms!

Welcome Neeko, climb abourd the medibus and plunge forward. You CAN do this!

Repeat Nancy's mantra often, "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels", stay focused, drink a ton of water and get your medimeals in on time. The first three days can be a bit of a challenge but after that it is smooth sailing.

Looking forward to getting to know you and hearing all about your success!!!

Cheers!

Neeko,

Best of luck with your first MF day. Put on your seat belt and hang on 'cause it can get pretty bumpy the first few days. My first few days felt like I was in a concentration camp but all is well now. It was almost like watching a movie where one has to the arch enemy in the bowels of the earth and then emerge victorious!



We're all here for you!

Neeko---I am so happy for you and I know you will feel wonderful once you get through those initial few days. Let us know how things are going and remember if you have to just take it hour by hour and these first few days will fly by!

WooooHoooo Neeko!!

Glad to see another Medifaster jumping on the wagon!!

Like you have heard, the first few days are the hardest as your body adjusts but it gets easier and easier until you have no cravings and you'll feel great with more energy and a great sense of well-being.

Take special care of yourself the first few days. Get lots of rest. You'll do GREAT!

Welcome! Welcome!!

GO KARI GO!!!! You can do this!!!! We're all here with and for you!

And you know you can call me at work if you start feeling weak!


Just FYI...Kari is my beautiful daughter.

[Pashta]

Oh that's great! Mom and daughter team! That should make it a whole lot easier since you are there for each other.

You can do it Neeko!!



Hey guys don't forget to put your start date in your signature, it's helpful for comparing and motivation.

[DogMa]

Yay!!! I know how nerve-wracking it can be in the very beginning. Just hang on the first few days, visit often if you need to, make use of your snacks if you're hungry (and have an extra packet if you need it), and you'll do fine! You'll be feeling great and dropping weight before you know it!!

We are glad to have you join us!!!

Yes, the first week is hard - you may experience hunger, fatique or even be slightly irritable. I know I was all of these things my first week. Then my second week I felt energetic and confident, especially when I got on the scales and saw the evidence of my MEDIFAST WEEK.

If you are hungry - have an extra shake. The best thing you can do is stay busy and occupied. The time will go fast and you will be so happy you stuck to it.

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR 3 DAYS!!!

Keep us informed - we are in this together

Hi,

Good thing you found this forum before starting. My first day was really bad. I did not know I could add extracts, spices etc to my meals to make them taste better. I did not plan to do day 2. My first night I went on the internet and did a search for Medifast and got real lucky and found this wonderful site. It has been so helpful, friendly and extremely supportive.

Best of luck. YOU CAN DO IT!!

I am so excited for you hopefully mine will get in tomorrow then I can be on board too. let me know how that first day goes so I can be prepared please hehe. You are on your way

[Neeko]

Thanks SO much everyone!!! Wow, yesterday was kind of harder than I expected..mainly because I was having a hard time adjusting to the new flavors..as I said before, I am VERY picky..about taste and texture. So I was getting kind of bummed out yesterday. Throughout the day, I was just kind of grin and bearing it and just eating/drinking. Then last night, I had a banana cream shake, but I put it in the blender and it was sooo awesome!! I did that to my chocolate one this morning, and it tastes better than yesterday! So there IS hope! I woke up this morning not hungry and even more excited that I was going to make this work! The best part about it yesterday, I was around food ALL day long, at work and at home, and I didn't feel the slightest bit tempted! I did sniff popcorn though. So if I can do this, I know everyone who is just starting can!

I did get a headache, but this morning it was gone, and I was feeling hunger pangs, but they are gone also!
