I tried a couple types of meal bars. They're an attractive concept, but they're so sweet that I immediately crave a second. They're less like a meal replacement, and more like a candy replacement.

Are any of the flavors a bit more meal-like? Or can anyone suggest a Medifast-like bar that's a bit... not unpleasant, but at least boring? :)

Week 1
* Down 16lbs in the first week. Obviously that's not sustainable - I would more expect 2-3lbs a week
* The first day and a half, I was pissing like a racehorse. Medifast must really reduce the water a body retains. That's probably responsible for the big change above. A gallon of water is 8lbs.
* Medifast is best eaten as a paste. This next part is gross, but hopefully useful to someone: ...

I am a newbie, and a lurker, I have been around for a while and remember when the board was slamming. Roll call has been a wee bit lonely so I wanted to encourage all those thinking of starting/restarting or just getting back on the wagon to come on in. Let's really get this board hopping again. Have you given up? Are you embarrassed? A wee lazy? I am here to say there is strenghth ...

Hey All,

So this is my journal huh? Well let me put down some of my goals. I have decided a complete redo, or 180 degree turn is needed. I am 43, will be 44 way to soon, I weigh 250 lbs, have not been as financially sound as I should be. For those who do not know Dave Ramsey, check out his site or radio programs. The premise, is debt free. So debt free, ...

Hey Ya'll,

Sweet Tea and Grits have led me to you. I am a GA Girl...ok 43 not exactly a girl...but you get the idea. I name myself Complete 180 because I am attemting to do a physical, mental and financial 180. You can call me 180 for short :D

My order is in, I hope to start Tuesday or Wednesday depending on time order arrives. ...

I removed the text that was here originally.

I didn't ask for my weigh in to be moved from mid-thread and edited as if I'd offered it up for a self introduction. That made the post into a feeble intro with a lame title. I didn't submit it that way, and monkeying with my post made me angry.

Well looks like I am down a bit more, I will take it :)

I am like 70/30 on the side of going to work in San Diego. Can you explain to me the reciprocal process for certification. I know the websites say whatever, but I thought real person answers might be better.


I know I need a TB and CA clearance for fingerprints test, anything else?
Is the state test hard? I figure if I passed NY's tests I am going to be okay.


Anyone actually in San ...

Starting my journal today - though I'm not starting MF until Monday.

I'm trying to figure out how to get my mother on board to support this (I'm married with 3 kids, but my mother lives with us) and not bring home cakes and ice cream on a regular basis. Maybe I'll just have to learn to live with it.

I'm going to start cutting down the caffeine today. This AM I had three mini ...
