Hi everybody,

My name is Kim and I'm new to this board. I've been reading for a few weeks and everyone is so encouraging and inspiring, I decided to join in.

I started Medifast on April 17, so I'm now beginning my 4th week. Last week, though was pretty rough.... had several events that I didn't deal with very well.... so tomorrow I start fresh and am going to continue until I reach my goal!!!

A little bio: I'm 33, married, mother of three boys (ages 10, 7, 1) I am a junior high business teacher (only 14 more school days left) I started out the year using slimfast and exercise and lost 22 lbs. But it started slowing down, and I started getting discouraged so I decided to give MF a try. I'm glad I did.

Even with my screwed up week last week....I am still down 9 lbs in 3 weeks. Just hope to keep up the momentum so that's why I joined this board.

Look forward to getting to know all of you!!!

Hi Kim~~ guess what? I am a middle school computer teacher. I know that nearing the end of school, people start to bring in all sorts of goodies to eat, and foods to share, and the administration starts bringing in doughnuts and pizza at lunch. It seems like a never ending cycle of sabatoge. But you can do it, you can say NO! Believe me, if I can say NO, anyone can. After today, we have 9 days of school left. Yipee.

Wow, 3 boys.........I have 2 teenage boys .......sometimes I think I am going to lose my mind and other times I just want to hug and kiss them. Thankfully, both of my boys are very well behaved and rarely give my husband and I any lip.

I am so glad you decided to join us. There are so many wonderful people here. Everyone has a little different story, but we all have the same goal. We are just a big bunch of LOSERS. Yeah!! GO TEAM........

DonicaB,

Cool.....I teach 8th grade Computer Tech and 9th Grade Word Processing!! Yes, the temptations are all around this time of year. Last week was Teacher Appreciation Week and there were goodies in there all week long. I stayed in my room to avoid the tempations!!!

Thanks everyone for all the warm welcomes......ever since I got off program last week...it has been very difficult to get back on full force. I haven't done a "complete" medifast day since. I'm NOT giving up but it sure is hard!!!
