Hi Everyone!

Happy New Year!

Wow... you are all doing so great. You all deserve a big pat on the back.

I on the other hand am not doing very well. I re-started on 12-1-05 and was losing a pound a day. I know hard to believe... Lots of water. I was feeling good, especially knowing it was a hard time to start, but wanting to get a jump on the New Year...

Well... I wanted a little nibble of a holiday treat and thought no big deal I will just taste it and be right back to slurpin... didn't happen. The rest is junk food history.

I feel terrible. No energy. I'm sure it's probably a sugar sludge running through my body making me feel so gross. It didn't even taste that great. At least not as good as feeling the weight come off. This is a battle of the mind for me. I know I feel so much better on mf, there is no comparison. So why can't I seem to stay on this?

I know this might sound strange but, I think that even though I hate the way I look and feel, I'm a little afraid of being a success. I know what life is like fat. It's been so many years since I was thin. Even though I know all the great benifits to becoming thin are... why do I keep sabatoging myself? Maybe I'll be able to figure it all out along the way.

I know this quote that I think of often is similar to one I have seen on this site, but this one goes like this. "Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now."

So with a new determination I start again... to join you on a journey to health, happiness and thinsville.

I am so grateful that you are all so wonderful, and this forum exits. I come everyday to feel encouraged and find strength from all of you and to find joy in your success and empathy for our struggles.

So I lost 14lbs. Gained 8lbs. Lost a total of 6lbs. Yeah! I didn't gain it all back. I'll take the six and not look back.

So I take your hand Christi knowing that I apparently cannot do this on my own, and join with everyone in the desire to become thin, and make friends along the way to a happier and healthier New Year.

Let's make this the best 2006 ever!

I know we can do this!

I really want this. Make the dream a reality.

Thank you everyone you are all an inspiration.

Hi there Sarah:

Glad you are with us again. I agree, December was a tough month. I started out good but slowly caved and well.... 4 lbs heavier. But this is just a bump in the road and I know for a fact this works and before long...I will be at goal. I need to get back on the forum tho cuz it does help tremendously. I need all the help and encouragement I can get....getting back on is going to be a challange within itself.

Have a good and relaxing day everyone.

How are you doin', Christi?...and all of you? I am glad to see your posts around the forum. I am keeping close, too, keeping Medifast at the front of my mind.

By the way, I went to see a cute movie over the holiday. It was called Rumor Has It. It was great, if someone is looking for a fun movie. My mom, my grown daughter, and I all roared with laughter. I heard plenty of men laughing, too....

Maybe I will check out the movies and see what else is on....bringing a bar for a snack!
