The snow is here !!!!!!

My daughter and I have the day off and I started my first shake at 5:00am, had the 2nd at 8:00, 2 dill pickles and now a cup of coffee...
I can really feel the "burn" today...I found that the hot coffee between my second and third shakes really help me feel full, and gets me to the third shake without a doubt ! I am in the zone now and am really feeling the difference...Yay me !

I wish I could join Nickie and hop on the plane to Disney World and get away from the snow ! But then again, my bod isn't ready for shorts..........yet !

Still have the emptiness feeling that I'm sure I'll get used to...I don't feel like eating, it's just a hollow feeling.........

Have a great day and stay warm if you're dealing with this storm too !

By the way..I did NOT go the grocery store before the storm and buy unnecessary and sugary food !! Yay me !

Hello Mf Buddies !

Another wonderful day here in compliance land ! I have another snow day today. For all of you in education , you know what I mean. I work in an elementary school and have another day off...Friday will be a breeze and then it's the weekend !

My program is awesome today...I actually woke up at 5:00 am (That's when I get the call for no school) , had a shake, watched the news, and then went back to bed until 9:30 !! Yes, I should have had a shake at 8:00, but slept right through it, and woke up NOT HUNGRY !!! So I made myself a shake, had a cup of coffee and here I am... At 12:00 I am meeting my parents (retired) for lunch. I will have my lean and green with them...

I am so happy...Ity has taken me months (if you have read my journl ) to get back and be 100% loyal...Lauren is right, just do it and put the blinders on. I will not fail this time because failure is not an option for me anymore... Have a great day and stay on program !!! If I can do it (and I have about 170 pounds to lose) so can YOU !!!

Can't wait for roll call on Sunday !!!!

Hey buddie!!!...boy, another snow day..lol!...they didn't get one here:+( but i know exctly what you mean by the education world...i was a teacher and girl my face would literally LIGHTUP when i got the no school day call, and til' this day, i'm still glued to the TV viewing the school closings and i've been retired since 1997..LOL!

Awwww, it's so nice you're having lunch with your parents today. Sounds like FUN..pick something good:+)

I must say i'm so delighted to see you're STILL on that positive and entusiastic role girl!!! Keep it up...and yes, Lauren always has just the RIGHT thing to say to make you situp and start thinking about getting back on the right track:+)...she has a way of making you take a look at things from a different prespective...i love her.
Thanks for the inspiration guys:+)

Make sure you let us know what you had for lunch

Hello...
It was a great relaxing day ! I had a great visit (lunch) with my parents and was good and on plan...I had a burger with no bun and a small side salad...Simply delicious !

The rest of the the day I walked the mall, went into the "Christmas Tree Shop:" and picked up my daughter from GirlScouts...

I had my shakes with me...so all is good !

Feeling good tonight...Having a shake now and then one more before bed.
My bars are late in coming in the mail

Toodles and have a great night ! Right Chynna???????????

Hey there girl. Remember me? An old MF friend. I haven't been here in a long time. It sure is quiet here. I was surprised to see you here and starting again and doing so well!! Good for you Pam! I'm trying to get into the right mindset to get going again. Take care and Best wishes to you.

[katesmom]

Happy Friday to All !
Thanks for popping in Elizabeth to say hello ! C'mon back, ya hear? We are all creeping back slowly to finish what we didn't do the first time and no one is pointing fingers...Let's make our health a priority for once and for all..I remember when Jo was here (*sniff *sniff) and she , like Lauren said to just focus and do the plan...There was nothing more to their explanation and if followed, the weight falls off.

I did MF in the late 80's when there was no L&G and it was tough...I lost 65 pounds and felt like a million bucks !

I guess that's what it comes down to for me...I want to be healthy, have energy, feel good in clothes, get compliments, play more outside with my daughter....What doesn't sound appealing there???

I am on my way to wellness and a longer life...You can be too...C'mon and hop on the MF wagon...There's ALWAYS room for more !!

Have a great day !

Reading your post made me think of a neat idea to stop temptation in its tracks.

When you think of a food you want, or are faced directly with a food that's not on plan, you can:

Picture the food itself on the one side
and
Picture a fresh sunny day, you in shorts, running after your daughter, picking her up and swinging her around, laughing and falling on the ground together (or whatever other scenario makes you happy)

Then you'll know that eating the food will not lead to that happy scene. I'm going to try that myself from now on.

Have a great Friday at work.

Happy Friday to you too! I'm so glad your lunch time festivities with your parents went well yesterday. What you ordered sounded GREAT! You're doing sooooo GOOD! Plus, you got in exercise as well walking the mall..i love doing that too, and also LOVE the Christmas Tree store

I can feel SPRING coming!!!!

Happy Sunday !
I am down 4 more pounds and can really "feel the burn " !! Now it's a total of 11 pounds and I'm psyched !!

It took me a long time to get back, and I'm sure glad I made it

Don't know what the next week will bring...But bring it on ! I'm ready and ready for the challenge !!

[ChynnaDoll]

Good Morning buddy! WOW, 4 pounds!!!! CONGRAT'S!!
Tell me, how long did it take you to lose the 11 pounds from the first day you started? I'm down 2 pounds since Thursday. I am slow loser:+(

Keep up the GREAT work girl:+))))

Happy Monday Morning !

Can I say this...I feel great today ! No more back aches and I feel like I have more energy... Yea Medifast !!

Had my shake already and will have another soon...I'm noticing that the crunch bars are yummy, yet give my tummy a little trouble and I end up in the bathroom...HMMMM just me or has anyone else had this effect?

I watched pieces of the Superbowl and was helping my daughter study for a georgraphy quiz...I made my DH a frozen pizza for dinner and then he was on his own...It was amazing not feeling like I had to cook all this food and then be tempted by it...SOLUTION? Just don't make it !

I physically feel so much better and it's only been 11 pounds out of 170 that I want to lose....I try and imagine how much better I will feel then ! I can tell that there are more inches coming off just by how my body feels and how my clothes are now feeling...If only you could bottle this feeling...It would be priceless..........That's my view of this plan and it's efffects....simply priceless.........

I hope that you all have a great on plan day... Will check in later !

[nickieluv]

I'm glad you're feeling so great today! It really is wonderful when it all comes together and you're in the groove. You would make a fortune if you could bottle that. Here's to the next 11!!
