Dayna gave birth to Elizabeth Anne today a little after 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Lizzy was just over 8 lbs, measured 20 1/2 inches long, and is already coiffed with soft, light brown hair.

Everyone is doing fine, including proud Daddy Roger. Aunt Di will be traveling back up to Oregon on Friday after work to spend the weekend and meet the niece in person. Uncle Mike will wait and go back up another time ...

I still have 2 MF meals to get in. I just finished dinner. Can I have 2 at one time or should I just have 1 and skip the other?? Is it about getting them all in or getting them in spaced for blood sugar reasons??

Is there a recommended place to go and get ideas for lean and green meals in order to have variety and not get in a rut. Thanks

In May 2006 I started Medifast almost on a whim and lost ~110 pounds. I was still shy of my goal by ~20 pounds late this winter...and then I hit the skids in March due to a series of personal & work catastrophes and have regained ~35-40 lbs.

I am feeling a little defeated and certainly self destructive, so I thought I'd better get back on the wagon again. Trouble is that I am having ...

Hello to all! :wave:

I am struggling with several health issues - type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure (under control with medication). I also am on medication for depression. I've had non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and breast cancer. I'm now cancer-free. :yes: But I'm at least 100 pounds overweight. Actually, I'm probably around 120-140 above where I need ...

Well, here we go! With much optimism and prayer, I plan to be the incredible shrinking woman! I'm 6 days into my journey and I'm down 10 pounds. Not a bad start.

I've decided that for every 50 pounds I lose (I've got 277 to lose), I'm getting a jewelry charm to go on the bracelet that I'll get when I make goal. I'm a jewelry lover, so I look forward to making my purchases! ...

I hate myself! I lost 130 pounds, started exercising and felt good.
But then I gained about 30 pounds back, stopped exercising, started'
binging again..... I am afraid to weight myself now.
Told myself that I would quit tomorrow .....
Thank God tomorrow is here.
Day 1 of medifast again.....painful...i pray i will make it through without
going through the drivethru again.

Dr. Andersen brought up this article at conference and I thought that it should be posted here. Comments wanted and welcome.:mrgreen:

Obesity is contagious.

One person's obesity can significantly increase the chance that his or her friends, siblings and spouse also will become heavy, according to the first study done on how weight gain ...

Hello all :) This looks like a great forum to keep me motivated!

A month ago I had to shop for another pair of slacks I could fit into. It was so depressing seeing all those cute clothes I couldn't even think of trying on. Then I saw a Medifast infomercial and read all sorts of great things online about it. I've about 2.5 months' worth of ...

To journal or not to journal?? I should warn any of you that might actually be reading this that many times I give TMI. I will probably tell you a variety of things that you do NOT want to know. For that I apologize. And I am long winded!!

hm, starters...my history. I am 32. I currently weigh 239 pounds. I have been 'larger' my entire life. I can remember the first time I ever ...
