What a trip!

That's the best way I can think of to sum up my first ten days on Medifast. There are so many surprising experiences already packed into this journey I find myself on

First, I thought I was all alone. I'm used to sharing all my weight struggles with a wonderful group of women at Weight Watchers, but with a net gain of ten pounds over two years ...

DAY THREE:

it's a wonderful day today! i don't feel sluggish and am actually anticipating taking the children to the park...

it's kind of embarassing to have to keep coming back to medifast after i decided to stray away from it, but....i tried on some pants the other day and i could not believe that a 16 was starting to get snug. i grabbed a different style of 16's just to make sure.... and same ...

I am embarrassed to death about what I have become. But I think that if I don't put it all out there, I will just continue to bury it inside, and I will never make the changes for myself that are necessary. So, here we go.

I woke up late today and didn't get started early enough to get all of the Medifast meals in :oops: . I should do better tomorrow.


Start weight: 248 :x

:o !st week down, but without 100% compliance. Having a sinus infection all week made it difficult to juggle the new job, (12 1/2 hour shifts) the kids, and getting in all the shakes. Still lost though, but not due to being a good girl. Today is the start of another week and Emmy wants to hit the gym to practice her swimming. I'm not excited about ...

Although I am not yet sure how I feel about this journal thread, I figured I might just as well go ahead and start one and see...so, here goes.

I am one week back into medifast and down exactly 5lbs as of this morning, or 4.6lbs by yesterday's roll call (6 days)..so while not exactly stellar first week losses I am not complaining. Downward movement on the scale being positive movement and all that..

Here I am in the middle of Day One. The first thing I have learned about MediFast is: minestrone explodes. :shock:

So I started back on MF - full fast today. I was at Nodstrom's last week and I tried on some really cute spring tops (they were actually cute and in the big girls department). I tried on the 3X (the largest they have) and it was toooooo tight! ACK! No wonder my bra has been giving me problems. I jumped on the scale and was up to my highest ever - 264. Yuck, Yuck ...
