I can't tell you how glad I am that M.F. is not a "shake only" kind of program. It's been pretty cold in my neck of the woods lately and I have really enjoyed the soups and chili!

I just thought I'd drop a note to say...to newcomers (or maybe those of you who've been around, too) that if you haven't let your soup simmer and swell...you're really not sampling the soups at their savory ...

I have been slackin' the past couple of months, but now I'm back!

Hi Unca, Please put me on the 10 lb club.

After 4 weeks i'm finally here yah hoo!! I'm getting there just at my own pace. I'm so glad to have lost 10 lbs.

Thanks to all of you for the motivation!!

Ok...so far, so good...I am almost done with day 4....yesterday was tough...just trying to break the habit of perpetual snacking that my life has been for years. I had 7 Medifast meals yesterday...and was very happy that I did not eat any other thing. Today I had lettuce with my evening soup and added some celery to the soup and it was heavenly!! I realized today that I need to have that lettuce at night ...

Okay, what is going on with me? Did I peak too soon for the holidays or what?

I was tried and true on Turkey Day (despite making and NOT tasting 8 items for dinner). While I was prouder than proud of myself for sticking to my guns and NOT tempting fate, something felt so off -- was it the lack of shoveling every morsel into my mouth or what?

Did or has anyone experienced this? ...

I'm thinking about picking up a magic bullet blender and taking it to work every day so I can have a decent shake at work. How bulky is the base? I carry a large tote with me every day and am hoping this won't be too difficult to bring along. Any thoughts? How big is this thing, anyway? I wouldn't bring a full-sized blender but I'm hoping this will be more portable.

Thanks!

Morning, Unca and gang-

Please put me in the 20# club! Actually, as of this morning, the end of my 3rd week, I hit 21.5 pounds! This almost seems insane. :-) Does anyone ever feel like the scale is lying to them? I am totally not kidding! I keep wanting to make sure it calibrates to 0 pounds in between, because, while I certainly can see some differences, to have lost 21.5 pounds so fast ...

Hi everyone!

I had a MAJOR slip last week! It started Tuesday before Thanksgiving, and proceeded through Sunday! I got on the scales last Sunday, thinking I would have a 1 or 2 pound gain. Man! Was I WAY off! I was up 8 lbs.!!!!!!! I was so ashamed! Especially when I started reading how great everyone did through the Holiday!

Well, I am back down to 249, (You were right Nancy! It was ...

How is everyone tonight? :wave:

I have been hanging out, seeing what's up and happenin', the past couple days. It's really good to see new and old faces!

I had a premature jump on my restart in mid-October, but now in the midst of some ongoing head-shrinking (or expanding?) and mood-enhancing drugs (whee!) I think I am ready to give this another go!

I was going to ...

Hi group,

When you have to lose as much as I have, you need to take time to enjoy each tiny pleasure on the way. I've lost almost 30 lbs and I though I know it's not terribly noticable to the untrained eye ;) I notice:

1. I've found my ankles again.
2. I can get out of the comfy leather chair without the "1,2,3 grit my ...
