The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

Hi there.

I'm new to the medifast thing. I haven't started yet, but have ordered 2 weeks of materials to give it a shot.

I'm sort of at my wits end with myself. I'm only 24 and I weigh an absolutely disgusting 250 lbs. Just thinking about it makes me start crying. Some people have the excuse of being big bonned, but I don't. I was a really petite little kid, but since my family ...

JUNE 21, 2006.

I go away from the boards for awhile and come back to discover this wonderful new thread. How terrific...a place to put into words whatever one feels, and with pictures, even.

I loved the beautiful pictures of Diana and Mike on their wedding day and her amazing story of their ongoing weight loss experiences…so touching and inspiring. Others I have read, but not nearly all. I look forward to reading them all ...

Yes, I'm new to the forum, but I've been on Medifast for 7 weeks now. Did a little cheating for two weeks at the beginning of this month and gained 2.5 pounds. yikes...but I lost 3.5 this week. So that makes me happy and I can now move on from my errors. I've now lost 15.5 pounds and I have 74 more pounds to go. This diet isn't easy for me. I'm a very textural ...

Hi guys,
Well this is day three of week three and for some reason I woke up feeling hungry this morning. This is very unusual for me. I wonder if I did something to make me go out of ketosis? Last night I had a seafood salad with bluecheese dressing on the side and dipped my fork. I also had a couple of bites of avacado that were in the salad. I only had about ...

This may seem so strange, but being overweight/fat on and off for so long, one thing I desperately wanted were beautiful obvious clavicles (collarbones for those of you saying "huh?"). My mom and sister are both thin, and my mom, especially, has the loveliest figure, most notably in strapless evening gowns. Her clavicles and neckline are always so elegant, and I wanted it too, for as long as I can remember.

When I started losing ...

I am writing a survey for summer school stats/coding lesson plan on TV viewing. I have TV on my mind!!

Here are some that I will miss. TGFR (THank God for Re-runs)-

Will and Grace-funniest show

Queer as Folk- not always haha funny, but great show. Stupid boring Sundays, now :(

Judging Amy and The Nanny- I curse Lifetime and TNT for hooking me on them again. ...

In no order, and probably not 10, but whatever it is...

Crossing Jordan and Las Vegas- got hooked on the second after CJ crossover with it

Rescue Me- So, anyone else watch it....like all 3 times it is re-shown, too? Can you tell it just went off, so it is on my mind.

Law and Order- (all of them, esp. SVU, bit not so much CI unless it is with the new 2)

The CLoser ...

I've been lurking here a bit, picked up quite a few great tips. Ordered my 1st months supply last night, due to arrive Friday!

I'm super inspired by some of the success stories and raring to go. I feel my head is "straight" and I'm focused on the goal. I'm sure there will be a few bumps in the road, but I'm prepared.

Standard story here... Overachiever, working long hours, late dinners and so on. ...

Ok, I know I can't be the only tattooed one in here.....tell me about your favorite tattoo and why it's your fav!!!!

Mine is the sleeve my BF is doing for me on my right arm....it's all Sailor Jerry type stuff (a tall ship, sharks, nautical dolphin, mermaid, deep sea diver, and my big fuschia pirate octopus) with some custom...my family's got a lot of Navy boys...so it reminds me of the fam every time ...

Alright, I'll give this a try. I've found so much support in the group, and I know journaling is supposed to help too.

A bit about me. I'm 37, happily married with 2 cats. I grew up in rural Illinois, got my engineering degree from a top 10 school, moved to Virginia where I worked and lived for 17 years. Last year, things were looking a little shaky at work, so I decided to make ...
