The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

Hi everyone - 'tis me again. I don't think I have mentioned what is, for now, the biggest reason behind the needed weight loss....knee replacement. I have genetic arthritis in my right knee and the knee is pretty well kaput. I fell last month and my doctor and I were less then thrilled at the amount of deterioration in the last year. I told him on the spot, that surgery was not an option, First ...

Hey All,

I am asking a rather silly question, but wanted to get everyones opinion. As you know I will be ordering and begining MF about the 15th. I plan on posting photos and I have found that those who post updates every 4 weeks are very inspiring. I will do the same. Should I post a before at the start or wait 4 weeks and post both, seems silly to ask, but I don't ...

As I may have mentioned in my journal postings, I have a new piece of imaging software called Paint Shop Pro Photo XI. I only have two days experience with photo retouching and manipulation but I haven't let that hold me back! I deal with insomnia frequently so playing with pictures, making greeting cards, Christmas ornaments etc. is a way I spend a lot of time. So this software is a new toy. In playing ...

Hi guys,
I am taking a break from mf until the first of the year. I am too busy right now between my own job (72hrs/week), school, and working in my boyfriend's store for the holiday rush. I was feeling bad because of not enough calories/sleep.

I am going to eat healthy foods and try to go low carb while on break but I will surely be back on the first. I have been off ...

Well we had our 20 week sonogram today and we are having..............


A BOY!!!!! :whoohoo: :bouncieball:

OK - I've sent a few pics to Unca Tim, so hopefully they will be up soon. You have all inspired me to add to the Studio, and I hope to have more progress pics soon! :D


This pic was a few days before starting Medifast in March (@236 lbs).


June 3rd (at 20# gone - @216 lbs).

I've sent my pics off to UncaTim so they should show up here soon.

The first pic in the pink and black sweater was my work pic for my ID tag.
I had started MF the week before and weighed about 285 in this pic. I had been at the river for Memorial Day weekend, hence the tan.



The second pic was taken last week, also at work, for our display board.
I saw ...

Well, I'm still surfing around this new (to me) forum, and decided this would be the place to tell you about myself and my MF journey so far.

I am 27 years old, a wife and mother of 2. My daughter just turned 7 and my baby boy is 18 months.

I've been overweight/obese since I was a teenager. As a child I was very active and athletic, I began to get pudgy in Jr. ...

I'm finally taking the photo plunge!! Sent them to Unca for posting :D .
The first is a pic of me the day before I started the program, Sept 3, 2006... and then 40 lbs lighter on Nov. 19, 2006.

I log on occasionally and see how some of you are doing and am glad to see familiar faces :) My last post was in March 2005 before I had a nasty car accident, at the time I was at my lowest weight in years mostly from the help of Medifast and this websites support! My life was forever changed though I didn't realize at the time. ...
