Hello everyone.

I'm not sure how to post so I hope this comes up in the right place. I just started today and am starving. About 2 o'oclock I decided to eat my meal and ate the skin on the chicken. Lots of skin. I thought I could make it til dinner. I did not think I would be so hungry. I like the shakes but I'm still hungry after i have one. In any ...

Hello everyone,

I am Walstreet the Healthy Hobo. I owe my way of life to Take Shape for Life and a dear friend who had the concerns to introduce me to medifast meals. I use to suffer from IBS and acid reflux since my early teens. It was not fun having a glass of orange metamucil before heading off to school or eating a pack of rolaids everyday. But because of the balanced nutrition of ...

Hi all, My name is Adelaide :D
Before now all of my dieting efforts were because I wasn't sure why things were going wrong in my life and I needed a concrete problem and also because I felt like I wasn't a good person because I could not control my eating habits. Weight loss and food became a huge focus and also a huge stressor. I ...

Hi Everyone!
This is my second day on Medifast. I was on this program in 1989 when Oprah made liquid diets so popular. I got rid of the excess 40 pounds I had to lose. I gained it back because I didn't take responsibility for my own after care. My doctor at the time (the only way you could by Medifast was thru a doctor) told me to get Jane Broody's "Good Food" cook book. ...

Hello all!

Just wanted to let you all know I have been reading this forum for the laast week or so, and another one on another site as well. I had decided to look into Opti-fast originally because my step father had been on it. But I started researching other options at my mom's request, and have found this wonderful, wonderful place. You are all just wonderful to eachother, and should all just pat yourselves ...

i am just getting started. I weighed 349 pounds when I weighed last week. Yesterday i weighed 340. I've been sticking to the 5 and 1 but it is still so hard! I have so far to go. Any tips on surviving the start up until you get used to not eating? Do y'all think it is easier to do a complete fast? I've been thinking if I knew I wasn't going to eat at ...

Hello Everyone!

I'm just getting started on my 5th day. Past the hunger pangs now and I'm already feeling less bloated. I'm so encouraged after having read so many wonderful posts and I'm looking forward to building friendships with all of you as I slim down.

Eight years ago I did Jenny Craig and lost 1 or 2 lbs a week over a year for a total of 50 lbs. Not long after I was ...

hello everyone,
I am new. I'm not new to weightloss as I have been down that rocky road before. Yes, in my life time I have lost well and always thought to myself, " This is how the other half lives"?
I have a food addiction ( among others) but food is the worse one of them all. We need to eat to live. I can avoid the alcohol, but how do I avoid food? ...

Hi, all! This is Tomeka from Oklahoma City!
