The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

Ok, it’s time to get down to business.

I see many of my friends here struggling - at one stage or another of falling off the program and climbing back on (myself included).

We're like little weary grade schooler's sent off to our first day of school with bright new clothes, shiny new shoes, a new book bag, new pencils and erasers - and now we're stumbling blindly off the bus trying to make it ...

and I don't mean the weight.

I jumped off the train and am watching it rumble away. I ate so much last night I almost had a panic attack.

I believe my first mistake was buying OTC appetite suppressants as a way to overcome my waning drive to be perfect on the plan. These pills must have a form of sugar in them because for the three days I took them, my stomach growled constantly. ...

Okay!

It won't be a long post. Basically, I had given up totally. To my surprise, I only gained back 6 lbs over a month or so. I was in the Gym 6 days a weeks but ate whatever( not badly actually, I lost my taste for junkfood).
I also got a little therapy ...I needed this....I simply had way to many "Fattitudes" to be succesful at dieting. I still have some of them...but I'm ...

Okay, here’s the deal. My hubby is going to have a vasectomy early next month, and I thought this would be a good chance to impress him. After the surgery we wont be able to…well you know, for two weeks. That’s not exactly why though. Since our son I have put on a little extra weight, which isn’t all bad because before I used to literally be all skin and bones. Also this would usually ...

Proper etiquette in a chat room makes it a more enjoyable place to gather. Many places to chat have become an open forum for argument and hurt or just plain vulgarity. When this happens good people leave. The following rules are a general guideline to follow which will help make this a quality chat room and develop a true sense of "Community".

Thougt we could all start fresh. Ocassionally I read one that gives me a chuckle, as I did this one. Hope you find it funny also (and maybe true?)

You may not know that many non-living things have a gender:

Ziploc Bags -- They are Male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

Copiers -- They are Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up ...

Hi all!

I was successful last year with the medifast plan - I lost 50 pounds. But, unfortunately I have regressed to old eating habits and have gained it all back. I would love to start the program again but I am worried that the diet will aggravate my ulcer. I was diagnosed earlier this year with one and am currently taking Nexium. The pain is controlled as long as the acid does not build ...

Hi Everyone,

I've been chugging along here losing pretty steadily (if not always as quickly as I would have liked). That is, until 10 days ago. Suddenly, everything has come to a grinding halt. I thought I would provide some info about what I've been doing so those of you who have been through this can give me some advice. If I just need to wait it out, I can deal with that, but if ...

Should one step on the scale? And if you don't see a weight change in two days, is that reason to suspect you're doing something wrong?
:?: RB

This is the start of Do-Over Day #3. I'm going through a bit of detoxing from sugar and carbs, and it is not fun. Add a dreaded summer cold on top of it, and you can surmise that I feel like crapola today.

However-----the scale is rewarding me so far--6 lbs gone since Sunday. I will be back in the 60# Club by the end of the week for sure.

I have read all the ...
