:shock: I have developed this very very bad habit. I am a sneak. I have no problems all week....temptation is not even an issue. Saturday comes, my husband takes off on the motorcycle....and I start sneaking food....and hiding my trail. I walked six miles Saturday on the treadmill and than followed up with chocolate zingers......(multiple zingers) ...and then had to explain to my kids where their zingers ...

I woke up this morning full of hopes! And when I read Tami’s Post I smiled because I felt good on Medifast and know that I am not alone in this. I was so happy this morning. That is until 1pm, when I landed at the Dr. Office. This stupid woman, looks at my chart and say:” How did you lose 29lbs in just over a month??” She looked horrified! So I proudly told her ...

Good Morning!

I had a date with my four year old last night and he wanted to go to McDonalds - so off we went. I was so surprised when I walked in and had absolutely no desire for anything!!!!

On another note - my 4 month old was up late, and I thought, I am going to be exhaused in the morning...but nope I was up this morning with a ton of energy!!!!

And ...

Howdy All my fellow shaker friends

Well..this morning when I woke up...I decided to weigh myself..since I started (16 days ago) I only weighed 2ce. The scale for me is just a number, im trying to measure my sucess with the way I feel in my clothes..the scale fluctuates too much, and I get easily discouraged..so I will only weigh every few weeks.

TO MY AMAZEMENT...I weighed 170 pounds..thats 15 pounds gone in 16 days ...

Last year at this time I was getting close to reaching my weight loss goal. My neighbor Martin had told me all about Joseph Schmidt and his beautiful chocolate sculptures and candies. I thought that I might like to try some of his truffles SOME day. Of course I hinted around to remind my husband of my desire. ;)

Surprise, surprise! On Valentine’s Day Terry gave me ...

When you start trying to shed pounds, you focus on things that you control: calories, carbs, crunches.

But there's one weight-loss factor that's pretty much out of your control: other people trying to sabotage you.

A friend of mine found this out during a get-together when she told another ...

Ok, today I suck. Have had an awful week. My husbands business partner has been hospitalized for the last 3 weeks....this is has been stressful beyond belief. It's been touch and go...and every time something seems to improve, something else goes wrong. Also, to make a long story short, because of a variety of legal issues involving embezzlement by a third partner, this series of events has left our business in jeopardy. This week has ...

Hi y'all! I want to share my recent experience with you and give you a tip.

I was snowed in on Monday and Tuesday--spents LOTS of time online and doing other domestic type stuff. Since I was not in my usual office routine, I did not consume the 64+oz water I usually do. Tuesday morning I stepped on the scales and had a 4 pound GAIN! I freaked a bit, trying to figure out why ...

"Eating to Live" or "Living to Eat"?

I have been reading a lot on the board lately about how hard the program is and how hunger is running rampant amongst us. Bonita has even said: …"I am going on the modified diet. I have to. I just can't do the full for that long, I NEED food."

How many times have I said that myself?? "I NEED FOOD." Food has been the one constant thing ...
