I gotta laugh a little here, and hope you will also... I began Medifast 9/8/03 172 days ago today. I have visited many a website in my day. Why do I feel it necessary to visit this darn site FIRST thing in the morning, FIRST thing I do when I log on, FIRST thing I think of when coming in the door.... and about 30 times during the day... Gotta be support.
Medifast is addictive, this board is even more addictive.
Weight loss is ORGASMIC. There is NO feeling like the one I feel now, the feeling of being thinner than I have ever been in my life (other than probably birth, where I am sure I weiged in at more than 100# - I think the Doctor slapped my Mom when I came out, instead of me!!)
I am wearing this morning a pair of 501 LEVIS. Size 38" waist. say it with me - "THIRTY EIGHT" LEVIS from my Sophmore or Junior year in highschool (too long ago to remember). When I began this program 9/8/03 I was wearing a 50" waist. Do the math. I grad-e-ated high school in 1979. My math brain can't even calculate how many years that was ago. Why did I save these jeans? I dunno, hopeful thought of someday being thin(ner) enough to see myself in them again? Well, that day is here. They fit, and I look DAMN good in them, I mean DAMN good.
I had to go to a corporate meeting yesterday. I got out my sport coat, that I generally do not need to wear, nice it looked, on that hanger. Whooops, I shrunk a bit. It is a 52 long (I am sort of a tall guy) I had tried on a friends coat about 3 weeks ago, and it was a 42 tall, fit like a glove. I had forgotten that when you lose weight, you lose it all over, well my sport coat for some darn reason had grown, or I had shrunk.. YEEK I could wrap this coat almost around me twice. My wife just laughed as I looked in the mirror "uh, you can't wear that anymore" she bellows.....
Yikes Medifast is a lifesaver.... Oh the tangled web we weave...
