Six weeks in

Postby igm46 » March 20th, 2006, 9:14 pm

Hello everyone. I have been reading the message boards for weeks now and have finally decided to post. I started Medifast 6 weeks ago and have lost thirty pounds so far. I am very HAPPY with Medifast. It's been years since I have been able to follow anything, I still can't believe how easy this program is. I had just about given up, when Medifast found me!! I have about 100 pounds more to lose, but it doesn't seem so impossible anymore. Looking forward to joining the Sunday morning rollcall.

Glad to have ya! C'mon in! Hey Unca, we've got a new member for the 30# club!!!! 30# in six weeks! Can you even believe that! I'm SO happy for you! Glad you joined us! I just experienced my first Sunday morning roll call this week and went back reading them all because I was so inspired.

I also find the program so effortless to follow, cravings gone, just do what the book says and you can't lose, what could be simpler? 100lbs more to lose, no problem, we'll have that off you in no time flat! Stick with us and we'll NAG you there!!!!

I'm curious, you said Medifast found you? How's that? Sounds like an interesting story!

I just wanted to drop you a line and say welcome! I'll look for you during next week's roll call!

How Medifast found me

Postby igm46 » March 20th, 2006, 9:44 pm

Well, to be honest, before January I'd never heard of Medifast before. I had tried Weight Watchers the month before and lost ten pounds, but something just wasn't clicking with me so I quit. I was at least 150 pounds overweight but had convinced myself that I would never be able to lose the weight. Well, I somehow came across Medifast three times all in the same day! I re-read my old People magazine that I had read 3 weeks before and saw a weightloss story of someone losing over 100 pounds on Medifast. I had read the article before but I guess didn't pay much attention. I then went to my doctor's appointment, opened another magazine and there staring at me was an ad on Medifast where you get one week free for buying four weeks. I then later that day talked to my sister on the phone. She was excited about a diet plan she had just purchased for herself. Can anyone guess what it was??!! MEDIFAST!!! I figured someone was trying to tell me something. Ya Think?? So I looked up the diet and was hooked. So here I am six weeks later, and 30 pounds lighter.

IGM,

I was so excited when I read your story, I just couldn't wait to congratulate you. :bouncie:

My stars! :star: :star: :star: 30 pounds in 6 weeks.

It's taking some of us twice that long to reach those fantastic numbers. ..but we're all getting there day by day by day. :treadjog:

Many of us learned about MF through whatever means at a time when we felt that nothing in the world could help us... we had already tried everything...we thought we were destined to be fat forever. :dunno:

Aren't we unbelievably happy that Medifast and MakeMeThinner forum found us! :whoohoo:
