The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

Thank you everyone for all the support. I am feeling 250% better.
The dr prescribed a $22 white pill and the migraine was gone within 2 hours. So yesterday(day 2) I did the 5/1. My boyfriend & I spent 2 hours in the grocery store reading labels for carbs! He loves to cook and is determined to figure out how to "invent" a lo carb pasta. Anyway fixed steamed salmon for dinner with a green ...

Ok...so I go to the mall today to buy shoes for the kids. My son asks if we can go get something at Carls Jr. for lunch when we're done and I say sure. Then it starts......I'm walking around thinking I can get one little thing....I just want some food....something to chew up. I'm actually trying to convince myself that this isnt going to work and I should just try something else. And then, I'm ...

Here's todays laugh of the day............My husband has been asking for me to make some homemade chili. With today cold and damp, I decided it would be the perfect 'chili' day. Around 11:00 I made a big 5 quart dutch oven full of chili. It was so tempting I made a Medifast chili for myself, to which I added 3 ozs. of browned ground beef(borrowed from my supper modified meal) and a packet of Fast ...

Thought you would enjoy this…

I just spent the morning reading back through the Weight Room and Weight Loss forums for the past two months- there is SO much really great information in those messages! Especially for getting through the first 3 days, and dealing with all those family issues, and 'daily life' tips. . . .

How about we put together a FAQ for everyone just starting out? I know there is basic information sent with everyone that signs ...

THIS IS DAY FIVE FOR ME I AM HAVING PROBLEMS GOING TO THE BATHROOM TO DO A B.M :x IS THIS NORMAL I DRINK ANYWHERE FROM A GALLON TO HALF A GALLON OF WATER A DAY. I DRINK FOUR TO FIVE SHAKES A DAY AND 1 SOUP A DAY.

OH my gosh. I went to my sister's house (prior to this - I spent all my 6 days of Medifast at my house - where I have confiscated all food and the pantry is empty.) I SO feel for you who have to feed your kids! I have no kids yet so it's just me and my husband who grabs a bite on the way home to keep me from having to cook in ...

Tomorrow will end my first week on the full fast and I actually feel great! Because I've decided to weigh-in only once a month, I don't know how much weight I've actually lost, however, I can totally tell that I have indeed lost a few pounds!

I started at about 295. And although I've always been overweight since a young child, I don't lead a sedentary life in the least bit. I've been fortunate that ...

Here I am encouraging everyone and talking about my great success today, and then BOOM - my time of the month starts and I'm actually sitting here having a glass of WINE!

Why does being SO BAD feel SO GOOD!

Hey Gang!
Just wanted to update you, I started back on the medifast program on 1/14/04. The first time I started on 1/01/04, I was still getting used to the diet, did not prepare myself mentally, did not know what to expect, and was not using the support forum to the best of my ability, so I cheated. This time I made sure I was mentally prepared to do this and wrote down all the ...
