Back in the Fold - A Cautionary Tale

Hi, everyone. I'm a successful Medifast user who successfully lost 34lbs. over a 4-month period (Thanksgiving '03 - April '04). I had a little too much "summer fun," and put 14lbs. back on. Today is Day 3 of re-entry into the Medifast lifestyle. The dull headache is almost gone, the hunger has almost completely disappeared, and best of all, I've lost 6 of that rotten 14lbs. that crept back on over the summer.

Why did ...

Finally Tried Pilates!

A small victory...

I have been thinking about doing pilates for quite a while. Last year when I was much heavier I bought the Windsor Pilates DVD's. I tried it once, didn't really get the hang of it, and never tried again.

I recently bought "Pilates for Dummies" and something my Mom recommended - "Fat Burning Pilates" and have been looking at them for months now. Well, yesterday was the day. I decided to start ...

Do we really exist?

Family atmosphere…. How many of you on this board (I am basically speaking about me) post on a very regular basis? You know most in this “club” like your friend, family member, confidant, trusted board member, but you have never met them. You build up this image in your mind of what someone REALLY looks like, and acts like in real life, though you have seen their picture in the studio, you still wonder. Have ...

A month behind schedule...

Everytime I think about it I feel really depressed. Somewhere along this journey I lost my way and began to slip back into compulsive eating. I'm up 7 lbs from my lowest Medifast weight of 157... and probably a good 15 or more pounds heavier than what I could have been. I don't understand why I keep sabotaging myself and all my hard work.

Anyhow, today is a new day and I pray that I ...

Should I switch?

I have completed my first week of MF, I am doing a complete program during the week and the 5/1 program on the weekend. I am experiencing an occasional headache. I am 39, but am not experiencing any other menopausal symptoms. Would it behoove me to switch to the MF Plus for Women's Health? Will the speed in weight loss change at all?
