I Am Also A Newbie
 

Hello All,

I am currently weening myself of Medifast. I have been on it of 2 weeks and am so violently hungry, that I get very nausus. My husband and I had the talk and said I should get to the old way of doing things...Count Calories...
I am getting a Buddy Bugg, which I am so excited about. Slowly will be starting my exercising (DVD's, treadmill, maybe Zumba DVD's, working out at the reck center in our neighborhood).

All I know is, I have never been so hungry and I mean truly hungry in all my life. I would rather spend my hard earned money on something more worth wild...Like rewarding myself when I hit my short goals that is more preductive in my healthy eating and exercise journey.

My question: Do you all right down and journal everything you eat?

I did a great jounal of eating on Excel. Please let me know.

I look so forward to reading your posts and any help I get would be so appreciated.

Thank you and am glad to be here

I use sticky notes at my desk and then throw them out. I dont ever stick with a jornnal.

Welcome Melsie! I CC and keep a paper journal which is also my exercise journal and daily to-do list. I also keep a Word document open on my computer and journal that way but I don't save the pages. Each night I copy the page into a 'support group' thread here at Chicks then just change it the next morning.

The support group can be found here, while not strickly CC we would love to have you join us. http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/weig...e-welcome.html Each month we start a new thread.

Hi and welcome!

I do my planning on sparkpeople.com. Every day I wake, I go there and plan out my foods for the day and if on a rare occasion, I eat something not planned, I do go back in and add it.

Good luck with your goals :hug:
