Glad to be BACK HOME

Hello,

It's good to be home from vacation. We had a great time in Vermont/New Hampshire...what a BEAUTIFUL part of the country.

I did really well with my MF while I was away. The hardest part was the car trip....ALL THOSE POTTY BREAKS ;)

I noticed that keeping busy sure helps me stay away from the food....I also noticed how much EATING people do on vacation as ...

Sunday Morning Roll Call, July 25, 2004

Hi everyone!

I lost 6 pounds this week. I'm at 200. 1 pound away from my first goal!

I saw Cyrano de Bergerac at the Shakespeare Theater in DC yesterday with a few friends. I brought a digital camera to catch us together since two of them are moving to North Carolina soon. Anyway, I've been feeling skinny what with none of my clothes fitting, etc. I've been telling myself that 165 may or may ...

Does it ever slow down???

Whew, talking about bathroom runs! I just had to ask about whether going to the bathroom (peeing, for lack of a better, less technical word) lets up the longer a person is on MF. I have read many back posts, but don't remember reading about whether this ever lets up.

It seems like one day, I won't have to go as much, and then another day, like today, I'm running to the bathroom every 30 ...

Coming Out

When I first began Medifast in May, I was uncomfortable adding a signature like so many of you have with my starting weight, progress and goal. I haven't told anyone how much I've weighed for a long time. Even though I know my weight would be decreasing, I think I had a fear that I would be unsuccessful on the program and that people would actually know my real, too high, weight.

A few weeks ...

Crossing the invisibility barrier :-)

Another side effect of losing weight: The crossing of the invisibility barrier.

I'm back on the radar screen for other men now! It's amazing how they suddenly notice you after you've shed some pounds...

Checking In

Hello everyone...just wanted to check in today....I am getting so much from your posts today. I just love how honest everyone is here. Something that I surely need. Hope everyone is ok.
I am doing good. Wrestling with those "food demons" is proving to be interesting. I am looking at that darn "oral fixation"...I mean it is like I have GOT to have something in my mouth...so, I am just paying attention to that.
Don't ...

Timing of shakes question

I have a question about the importance/necessity of having three shakes by 2:00 PM.

I'm a bit of a late riser (and late faller), and usually don't have my first shake until 9:30 or 10:00 in the morning, and I sometimes have it at 9:00. I've been having my third shake between 3:00-3:30 in the afternoon, because of the relatively late time that I have my first shake. I have tried spacing my shakes with ...

Update

Hi all,
I have been on vacation for a while and wanted to keep up with posting my experiences. Before I went a way I had been on just 5 shakes and never had anything else. I had a 1/2 a pickle before I left for Maui just to check out my tolerance for food. Not good. Bad diarrehea. While I was on vacation I brought some MF foods to try. PB bars (pretty good), ...
