I have been doing research and reading online about MF and I want to know if I can do this diet. I am a sales/marketing person and I travel in my car all day long, in and out of buildings and hospitals. I know I will not or cannot ask to borrow anyones microwave to cook or warm anything up. I would have to do everything from my car. Is this possible with this type of diet? And my second question is I am a HUGE ADDICT to coke-a-cola. I am drinking 4-5 cans a day. SO yes, I know I have gone through God awfull withdraws before and I am not looking forward to this. Anyone else can relate? Or give advice, because that is my weakness! Thanks..........

Hi Travelmom,

I too am a very very busy lady with my job being so demanding and crazy. I live out of my car and on the go. I do have my microwave at home on the weekends and on those very few days that I am at my workplace..... You will be limited though to the shakes, the puddings, and bars (one time a day) and then you will have to eat one REAL meal a day (Lean and Green). I actually think it is not too bad... day three this morning I felt like I could eat everything, but then later today it was like a switch... ping.... not hungry and felt pretty good and in CONTROL!!! As for Coke, you may have to switch to caffiene free diet coke (which I have grown to love).... which I will admit I too am an addict. But I am also drinking a lot of water with crystal light, which actually is really good and I feel pretty good about being able to stay on this diet (if you had asked me this at 8am this morning I might have said something different! lol)

Hope you chose medifast... it is pretty easy and very very very doable


Luck to you,

Thank you and good luck to you and your success with MF. I made my first order tonight. And me being such a picky person I picked and choose which things sounded like I could stand it for 2 weeks. I am trying this for two weeks and seeing if I can handle this on the go all the time. It was a bit costly other than buying the pre made up varitey packages, but I knew I would not like the things in there. Well, I also had it shipped standard because of the money. So I will start when I know I am at work for 3 days in a row knowing those are the rough times and at least I will be very busy to try not to think about food. I am afraid if I did the 3 days on the weekend I would eat the whole house! I guess I am going to have to switch my colas too......boohoo......that really is tough for me. Well Wish me luck!! Can't wait till it gets here!! I would like to loose 50-55 lbs!! Nothing else has worked........so I am praying!!

The weird thing on this plan is once you get in the groove you will almost forget to eat. Don't forget to eat though b/c then you won't lose. Make sure you eat every 2-3 hours during the day. Also get your L&G in for lunch or dinner. Yesterday I did mine for dinner then today I had it for lunch. If your on the go Subway turns sandwiches into salads. Just make sure not to get anything in it your not suppose to. This would be a healthy choice if you on the go. Hope these ideas help you!

Yes

Sorry I am trying to figure this posting thing out.
Anyhow I have been on MF for 1 week and lost 8.4 pounds!!
I go the the actualy store front near me, love it!

Thanks for the Subway idea! As simple as that sounds I didn't even give that a thought. I can't wait to start just to see how I do! I am going to go and start posting on "starting out need to hold someones hand" SO I can get in on that disscussion! Thanks again!!

Travelmom- Good luck!!!!! You can do this... and lol believe it or not i too was a coke addict (hmmmm that doesn't sound right lol) but I now drink ddiet without any problems....

WOOOHOOO you took the plunge

Thank you! I placed an order online Sunday night and I still don't have a tracking number?! But I am excited and decided that once I get a tracking number I will cut way back on my cokes and starches and sugars so I can start my body on the right path. Going to go from 6 cokes a day to one.......LOL.........yep you read that correctly! LOL
