I know that you can have 7 oz. of poultry or 5 oz. of lean beef, but what should I be looking for in the products?

For instance, I love turkey. It's extremely rare to find turkey cutlets in my local grocery story, and I don't want to cook an entire bird! What should I be looking for that would be acceptable (and not overly processed).

Also, what about chicken. Is it ok to buy ...

Well in a prior post I was Joking about my wedding band being loose. Well I lost it. :dooh: I travel allot and stay in hotels and last week I noticed it was gone. I think I must have lost it in the shower or in bed?? :idontknow: I guess these are the hazards of weightloss. I have to ...

Its the end of week 2 for me, 4 more gone!!
I'm thrilled- its a total of 16 since mid feb. The M.D. however said NOTHING about the loss. BP dropped 15 points, still said nothing! Just can't impress some poeple. I am thrilled --and thats the only person I need to worry about at this point right??
Thanks team for all the inspiration.

I started three days ago, and I've not lost any weight. I'm not terribly concerned about this, but considering the amount of that most people lose in the first week, I'm a little surprised.

When did most of you start to see the pounds drop?

Newbie just_julie stated in a different post:

"Of course I make the family's other meals, but I've always made them healthy things that are not tempting to me. Funny how I would always take care of them with healthful food, but I didn't take care of myself."

This interesting comment (thanks, just_julie! :) ) got me to thinking about how many posts I have seen that while ...

I did havea couple licorice deals that were at the office but otherwise have remained on track. Thank God for chicken boullion..heading for second of the day to ease the pangs then off to bed. Havent weighed or anything, just waiting a few days to look at that. Generally i feel ...

My doctor put me on some antibiotics for an ear infection. He advised me to eat yogurt to prevent a yeast infection from developing while I'm on the antibiotics. Of course, that's not on the list of foods we can have. How badly will having a cup of yogurt once a day affect my progress? Does anyone know of any alternatives? I don't want to go off course, but I don't want to risk a ...

According to medifast, I am allowed 1-2 teaspoons of any condiment. What about teriyaki sauce?

The reason I ask is because my favorite brand's first ingredient is sugar. I've never seen a sauce with sugar as it's main ingredient, but this one has it. Would 1-2 teaspoons be horrible, or would this still fall under the allowable condiments?

I just started the plan a few days ago. I bought plenty of chicken and turkey, along with some round eye steaks and some ground beef patties.

I very rarely eat beef (or pork), but I thought that I would buy some things just in case I get the urge. After getting home, I noticed that the booklet said to use "lean" beef. What I have is simply called "choice beef".

When I went back ...
