The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

I am loving using the Medifast products as cookies and pancakes.

But I wonder if there is a limit to how much I should be doing this. The shakes I've been taking to work seem to solidify in the bottom of the water bottle (I only have time to add water once, and drink 2 shakes out of the same bottle, meaning 1 shake has to wait 2.5 hours for me to drink it).

I'd ...

My very first post here... I have been reading and lurking for quite awhile, and the before and after posts just make me bawl. I have a ways to go, but I am motivated and I thank you guys for being so supportive and encouraging. What a neat group of people!

Anyway, my question.... is it ok to mix the shake up with more than just 6-8 oz of water? I assume so, but thought ...

Hi,

Just needing some help planning my next L&G.

I wanted to try to eat these:

Butterball Chicken Breast Strips

3 oz serving

90 calories
1.5g fat
2g carbs
0g sugar
18g protein

Do you think it would be safe to eat 6 or 7 oz of this? Or should I avoid it like the plague! LOL

I really want something different for my L&G. I am getting bored.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

i don't know what the deal is, but lately when i eat a bar (no matter how slowly) i feel so full it's like i'm going to hurl. can we split a bar in half and make it 2 meals? it does have a lot more calories....

I havent set any real goals yet. Just my ending weight and I did that based on what it will take to get my BMI down in the normal range. I might readjust that in the future.

Anyway...I was trying to set up some mini like goals to help get me thru. I know DH will be willing to give me rewards if I reach them.

Do you think these are realistic?

This isn't meant to be hostile - but I did wonder what happened to the thread about the change in the formulations of the bars. It seems like useful information for people buying "refills" to know that the products have changed.... Are posts that include complaints deleted?

I have found a good substitute for the medifast ready to drink - they cost a good bit less and are more convenient because you can pick them up at Walmart (7.97 fo 6) . . . AdvantEdge Carb Control shakes

I bought some and we will see how they taste!

Hi All,

I've read that the MF program can temporarily cause one to feel weakness in their legs.

I'm in the middle of week 3 and still feeling this.

:?: :?:

Is that normal?

How long does it usually last?

Thanks All!!

Is it ok to do just the shakes and not the soups or bars?

I got some bars and soups this week & so far I am not a fan of them, but I can drink those shakes all day long. Just wanted to doublecheck that as long as I am MF 5 times that it is ok if I am drinking them!
