Here is my before...weighing in at 158lbs. I will be starting my program when I get it next week. I might look lighter than 158 and I think it is because the picture was taken from someone tall. We will see what my after photo looks like in the same pose!
If anyone has any advice before I get it on how to prepare myself, please let me know. Any encouragment would be GREATLY appreciated. ...

hello everyone.

I'm 22. 5'7" and 284 lbs. I wear a women's size 26. And I have not had a full-length mirror in my house for three years now. This is very hard to admit. But I think it's time I started living again.

I am waiting for my starter kit to come any day now. I am very excited about this new diet. I really am going to try hard and lose this weight ...

Hi,
I am a bit confused about the "complete" plan and the lean and green 5 and 1 plan. I need to lose the first chunk of weight fast- its a psychological thing- once Im started I can do fine, but I need a kick start. So I decided to do the complete fast. I started the first week just on shakes but to be honest, by the 3rd one, I was nauseous and just ...

Morning all you fine MMT'ers! Today is a very, very special day! It seems our beloved Mike aka Guido (Explorthis for you newbies) is another year older today, and twice as handsome as he was last year at this time! Everyone please join me in congratulating one of our most supportive friends on the MMT boards. I won't give away his age - that's up to him - but let's just say he's still making ...

I'm Lil'Bit and I am new to Medifast. I just ordered and haven't received it yet. I am 5'2 and about 158lbs. I need to lose about 30lbs.
I ordered off the Medifast website and didn't know what to pick. Got a 2 week supply of the 55, 5 and 1 plan. Didn't know if it would work and I wasn't going to pay over $300 for a product that doesn't work. Also bought some ...

:cry: I know everyone has gone thru this and I am not unique, but it's
almost as if my body is totally rebelling against getting healthy.
It's as if my psyche is saying.....you did Atkins all those years and
now you are doing Medifast and finally getting where you should be,
healthwise, but it's not going to happen. The carb devil is
stronger than ...

Okay- Here goes! I just have to say that I've always tried to be a strong person, do what needs to be done, take care of everyone and everything, (except sometimes myself.) Sometimes I find that when I actually may need others to be there for me, then "hey, what's up?" Don't get me wrong, my family is very supportive, but they do not live close to me. And my friends at work are wonderful, ...

Thanks for the support everyone from my other thread--I really, really appreciate it :hug:!

I apologize for not posting again for several days, but let me tell you--I have been going through it. Also, I have been preparing things for my move on Saturday (I'm moving to a new apartment) and things at work have been consuming as well.

But what's happened on the mental/emotional front is ...

The honeymoon is over.... uh, the gild is off the lilly. ;)

The 190's no longer float my boat. :uhuh: I have been super-pleased with 191-194 the last month and a half (2 ?) but recently I haven't felt as skinny or as satisfied with my accomplishment as I did.

What's the cure? DUH!!!! ...

As most of us know, estrogen is stored in the female fat cell. When we lose weight, that estrogen is released into our systems -- hence the warnings about birth control vigilence during weight loss! But the other side effect that I've rarely heard about is the moodiness that also comes with this excess estrogen release. It's like constant, low-grade (and somedays, not so low-grade!) PMS. Has anyone else had to deal with this? I ...
