Dean's Maintenance-Part 2

EXERCISE

Exercise is something that is not recommended when you first go on the Medifast plan unless you have already been exercising regularly, in which case it is recommended that you cut your exercise routine in half.

I found that after about three weeks or so on Medifast, and most certainly once on maintenance, exercise can be your best friend in accelerating weight loss while on the plan and maintaining your weight after you make ...

Like Donica, I lost my will

OK, YOu haven't heard from me in so long you probably don't remember me. There are so many new names here that I don't know. I took a few weeks off for various reasons (excuses really). It has taken 3 weeks for me to get my will back and my drive again. I guess the kicker was finally getting on the scale and seeing that I gained 8 pounds! I wanted to cry. I decided ...

Two weeks

I have just finished my first 2 weeks and am down almost 9 pounds! I just wanted to say thanks to everyone in this forum - without reading all the posts of encouragement, information, and difficulties I don't think I could have done it!

Thanks again,

Susanne

I've lost my WILL and I want it back!!!!!!!

When I first started MF about 10 weeks ago, I was like a solid rock, nothing could move me to cheat. I was able to keep that will for about 7 weeks and then it just seem to have completely left me. For about 3 weeks I have been cheating daily and in big ways. I could give you excuse after excuse, but that is all they would be.......just excuses and pretty lame ones at ...

Late night thoughts, in verse

Please don't make fun of my crappy poem. I was up late and felt like I needed to get some things off my chest, so I started writing, and now I figure I might as well share it. After all, who else could relate better?



How easy would it be
to quit smoking
if you couldn't quit.
If to survive you had to have one,
or two, just those,
every day
no more but no ...

Okay, I'm just venting here! I have to get dressed to go to this family function, and NOTHING fits me! Because I've gained so much weight, none of my cute clothes will even pull up. (I'm sitting here typing in a skirt with the top button not able to close,and the skirt is the uglies thing I own, but I have no other choices!) I hate this!!! :( ...

Back from Mexico

Well, I am back and back on the MF track as of today. I was careful with what I ate while gone and found that I could not eat very much at a time. The trip was good, weather could have been better at times but was still nice to get away. Today I feel like I big fat cow...tomorrow should be better. I imagine I am lugging around a ton of water from retention. ...

Workout? Shakes?

Hi, guys. I'm just finishing Day 2 (one more shake to go), and I feel just fine. No headaches, no fatigue, no anything since I started. So ... do you think it's OK to resume my workouts tomorrow, or do I really need to wait another day? I don't care about the treadmill, but I miss lifting.

Also, does anyone do this without having shakes every day? I don't mind the soups and even the ...
