Hi ladies... I've only heard about MediFast one other time in a 3fc post, someone had asked "what's a foolproof way to lose 30lbs quickly".. A lady said her husband was sropping weight like a bad habit with HMR shakes, also know as MediFast, it's a liquid diet, I looked them up online and they didn't appear to spendy, my concern was, losing weight to quickly leaves alot of excess skin :( Otherwise I'd have been all over it!! I think this diet would work good for someone with alot of weight to lose, and maybe just use it for the first 40-50lbs or so to get you feeling good, making it alot easier to exercise :) If your unable to find the website send me a pm...
Anyhow, it's great to see everyones still going strong...I made it to the gym, did my 40min... I'm really trying hard to reach my goal this time.. In the past I'd always lose weight for about 2-3months, then take a 4-5 month break, it still counts though, at least I don't weigh 248lbs anymore right!! I'm just tired of the diet yo-yo game, I won't feel like I've succeeded until I reach my ultimate goal :O) I know what works and I know I can do it, I will be stronger in my weakest moments.. Good health and great energy gals'... Crystal :O)

I took one weeks worth of vacation before I had my surgery then had another month off, it was grand. I would do it all over again just to get the heck out fo dodge. I am seriously needing to find me a different position elsewhere. I wish I would've never left the other bank that I worked for. The saying is true the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I hope your return is a good one. Did you ever disclose your firs name in our thread. Maybe you have but I think I overlooked it. :)

Glad to have a newbie with us. This thread totally rocks. All the ladies that have posted are great supporters and filled with great thoughts and ideas. The good thing is you found us and we are all here to help. Are you doing the Core Plan or Flex Points. I too am on WW without the meetings in person or online. I have the info that is before the Flex Plan started. I still count points though.

HEY FURIOUS:hug: I DID BY THEM SMALLER!! GIRL I GIVE UP!! LOL.. CANT WAIT TILL I CAN BE NAKED IN PUBLIC-NO NEED FOR SPANDEX THEN!;) MEDIFAST WAS WHAT OPRAH WAS ON WHEN SHE PULLED THE FAT OUT ON A WAGON! YOU LOSE A LOT REAL QUICK BUT I HEAR THE CHANCES OF GAINING ALOT OF IT BACK IS VERY HIGH.. THERE IS ALSO THE EXCESS SKIN.. YOU HAVE TO REALLY TONE AND LIFT WHILE YOU ARE LOSING SO THAT YOU ARE BUILDING THE MUSCLE UNDERNEATH. BUT ON THE LOW.. IF YOU DO THE LC THING LIMITING YOURSELF TO 20 TO 30 CARBS A DAY. YOU CAN LOSE ABOUT 2 TO 5LBS A WEEK. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED FOR ME. I THEN STOPPED DOING IT.. I NEVER GOT BACK TO WHERE I WAS BEFORE STARTING IT THANK GOODNESS BUT IT WORKED!!!

I THINK ANY DIET WILL WORK, IT IS MORE OF A LIFESTYLE CHANGE THAN DIET THAT I THINK WE SHOULD ALL FOCUS ON. IT IS GOOD TO HAVE SHORT TERM GOALS TO MOTIVATE YOU -WEDDING, FAMILY REUNION,HIGH SCHOOL REUNION-BUT THE RESULTS WILL LAST LONGER IF WE TRY TO CHANGE HOW WE LOOK AT FOOD AND THE REASONS WHY WE EAT. FOR MY HUSBAND IT WAS NOT LOOKING TO FOOD FOR SATISFACTION, BUT LOOKING AT IT FOR NOURISHMENT ONLY. YOU HAVE CRAVINGS BUT IF YOU WRAP YOUR MIND AROUND WHAT IS TRIGGERING THE CRAVINGS, WE CAN BEAT THIS MONKEY ON OUR BACK, THIGHS, BUTT, ETC. LOL!!!! FOR ME MY TRIGGER IS THE INSTANT GRATIFICATION I FEEL WHEN I GET A DESERT THAT I WANT! NOT ON SOMEONE'S PLAN FOR ME BUT FOR A BRIEF MOMENT I FEEL IN CONTROL. BUT WHAT I NEED TO DO IS TO CONTROL OTHER ASPECTS IN MY LIFE-CHANNEL THAT ENERGY TO POSITIVES.

YES CRYSTAL...WE ARE ALL GOING TO BE STRONG FOR EACH OTHER IN OUR WEAKEST MOMENTS. BYLAW#2006" YOUR GOAL IS OUR GOAL..." EVERYDAY THAT YOU COMMITT TO THIS IS A SUCCESS BABY! I WILL NOW DANCE FOR YOU..:carrot: :carrot: :carrot:

WELCOME PROUD NAN:hug:

WELCOME AND CONGRATS ANNCHARLIE!! I WILL NOW DO A HAPPY DANCE FOR YOU AND YOUR HOMELESS LBS:carrot: :carrot: :carrot:

REGINA..WE ARE GOING TO BE SO TIGHT AND TONED WHILE WE LOSE GIRL, WHO THE HECK WILL NEED PLASTIC SURGERY..UNLESS WE ARE GETTING FAKE BOOBS TO DRAW EVEN MORE ATTENTION TO OUR SEXY BODY!! KEEP YOUR HEAD UP TODAY BOO.. DONT LET THAT HATER AT WORK GET YOU DOWN.

GoofyGrl 04-04-2006 03:59 PM

Bathing suits--hip hip hooray....smile
 
O.K. Ladies how many of you all have your bathsuits for the summer yet? Here not even, however I did see one at Target in the Letter department that was quite cute. I keep beating myself up because I didn't buy it. My problem is I see clothing that I like but somewhere in my head I say "I'll just wait because I am going to lose weight" then that doesn't happen and I lose out on a cute outfit. Funny how that is.:?: Anyway does anyone have any summer vacation plans? I am counting down my days until June 9th. I am going to visit my dad in San Antonio and my mom is coming with us..parents are divorced. My husband was like are they going to be o.k. with each other, I was like duh! they were in the same house when we got married-H-E-L-L-O!
I will be gone for a week...then I am having surgery, just kidding. Let me stop before I get punished. :devil: So what kind of music is everyone into? Me I enjoy retro (I like listening to 80's music..i.e Zapp and Roger, Ready for the world, Culture Club any and all 80's music) I also like early 90's as well do you all remember Vanilla Ice or how about that guy named Snow. O.k. I could go on and on and I need to go and pretend like I am working-nothing to do....:dance:

Sarica 04-04-2006 04:18 PM

Bathing suit!?!?! :rofl: I think I would scare everyone if I wore a bathing suit. :D Are you going to San Antonio TX to see your dad? I live in Corpus Christi about 2 hrs from there. I was shopping at a store the other day and would you believe N.K.O.T.B. was playing on the sound system. I have not heard them in forever.

GoofyGrl 04-04-2006 04:41 PM

Whoa... Oh... Oh... Oh...Oh... Hangin' Tough

Your smiley had me rolling! It is so cute. Stupid question don't they have a Selena statue there in Corpus, my dad said they did? My daughter liked her. So were you dancing in the aisles and singing :carrot: , remember there are security cameras....LOL!:o

cherrylatte 04-04-2006 04:43 PM

I don't think my insecurities would ever allow me to feel comfortable in a swimsuit!! I could have Jessica Simpons bod and I would still feel like a heffalump!! It's been so many years since I've felt comfortable in my own skin, I doubt I'll ever get over feeling selfconscious in public... Even though I know I'm thinner now, I still feel and see myself the as the fat-girl... I'm so weird, I know :O)

Anyhow I do know what it's like to always put off buying that perfect outfit or pants until you've lost 20lbs(or more).. I do it all the time! Then kick myself later when I go back to the store and it's already out of my size :( Why can't I live in the here and now, why is it that I put my life on hold until I'm thin, like somehow my life will really be so much more exciting, WHATEVER, this is as good as it's gonna get!! I gotta start loving me for me now!!!

I've just recently converted into a country girl,, I love country music all of a sudden, maybe it's a sign I'm gettin' old :O) I cannot stand the crap I'm hearing on my sons radio, it's so redundant...

So Oprah did MediFast huh?? I don't remember that.. Did I sound rude when I said someone who needed to lose alot of weight should try it?? I really didn't mean to,, for me at my current weight I'm more focused on not only losing inches but also toning and firming my flabbiness :O) When I first began losing weight though I would've totally bought MediFast, I had the toughest time doing just the simplest of exercises, my knees hurt, back, hips, everything hurt me, I'm 5'4 so the weight was alot for my frame..I wouldn't have cared about some extra skin, just to feel normal and be able to go for a walk without the pain afterwards..

My husband is hispanic and he wants to go visit his parents in Mexico, I really hate driving for 3 days though so I'm really trying to talk him out of it... I'll most likely be a lazy bum all summer, stay indoors and try to avoid the heat :O)

Ok I'm off to pick up my munchkins from school :O)

da fat n da furious 04-04-2006 05:08 PM

I love all types of music, my youngest son for whatever reason wanted to join a choir, so I learned that I really do enjoy classical music, mozart and such.
I love the 80's and 90's but can swing right to the oldies 50's. I enjoy country music,,,even the old old stuff.

I read enough medifast to know I would never take it, I have a problem with aspertame,,,instant migraines and medifast is made up of something even worse then aspertame,,,I researched what it was sweetened with Acesulfame K,

Yes, there is a statue right on the bayfront. She also has a memorial at her gravesite I believe. Oh man, I completely forgot about security cameras! LOL!

Amanda_mae 04-04-2006 07:04 PM

I'm a country girl all the way! I love country music. I listen to a lot of other stuff too. I enjoy 80's music, really like hip hop, some rap, everything really.

I can't wait for my summer vacation. I actually have tickets to Country Fest this summer. It's this HUGE outdoor music festival in Central Wisconsin in June. I'm seeing Big & Rich, Toby Keith, JoDee Mesina, Craig Morgan, Gary Allan, Rascal Flatts, Phil Vassar, Carrie Underwood, Montgomery Gentry... the list goes on and on! I can't wait to buy a swimsuit this year! I am putting it off till mid-June though... right before I leave for Country Fest. I hope to be close to goal by then. I'm putting $$$$ away here and there for a little shopping spree the week before I leave. I'm gonna get a cute bikini, jean skirts/shorts, cowboy boots, a cowboy hat and a bunch of tank tops. I plan on being one sexy cowgirl by the time the end of June rolls around :)

Your vacation sounds like fun. I am sure you will be one sexy little cowgirl for June. So you enjoy some rap, my daughter listens to some, whatever they play on MTV. We have extra MTV channels so of course she is like can we watch them- I'm like nope. There is one song that I like and that is Don't Cha by the kittycat dolls, that will be our Fluffyhood song when we all get to our goals. How does that sound everyone? :carrot:

Our Thread is now in a different area- we are in the Support Forums- Support Groups. I was a little frantic as I thought they shut us down. Thank God they didn't. I will post a little later ladies.

I went to his concert last night, it was fantastic!
Did horrible eating, I was on the run all day and didn't think to eat then ate a bowl of cereal for dinner, after the concert we had burgers and shakes....so not cool.

Amanda Mae you are so lucky I like a few of those singers, Toby Keith, Carrie Underwood, (her new song Jesus Take the Wheel-wow!)

cjlafaye 04-05-2006 11:06 AM

GOOD MORNING MY SISTAS!!!!!:hug:

IT IS SOO FREAKING COLD HERE TO BE SPRING!!! IT AGGREVATES ME THAT I CANT WEAR MY SUMMER/SPRING STUFF. I AM A FASHION/SHOE WHORE- I HAVE OVER 200 PAIRS OF SHOES AND BOOTS AND A ENTIRE ROOM DEDICATED TO MY CLOTHES! I REALLY DONT HAVE TO BUY INSPIRATION CLOTHES CUZ I SAVED ALOT OF CLOTHES FROM WHEN I WAS SMALLER. MY KEY INSPIRATION OUTFIT WHAT I WORE WHEN I WENT ON MY FIRST DATE WITH MY NOW HUSBAND. BABY DOLL TOP AND SHORTS(THAT I ROLLED UP CUZ I THOUGHT THEY WERENT SHORT ENOUGH!). I HAVE THAT HANGING ON MY CLOSET DOOR!

I WAS THINKING THAT WE SHOULD BE IN THE SUPPORT AREA ANYWAY. HAVE YALL NOTICED THE AMOUNT OF TIMES OUR THREAD HAS BEEN VIEWED?? WOW!!

REGINA..I THINK "DONT CHA" IS A GREAT SONG FOR US!!! I WILL NOW DANCE TO IT

Oh my goodness...
Cassy: I'm soooo jealous! I have a slight shoe obsession but my income (or shall I say lack there of) doesn't allow me to have NEAR as my pairs as you have! I would be in heaven with a set up like that.

So sista's...
Tonights going to be a bad food night for me! I'm going out to the Olive Garden for dinner w/ my boyfriend. Today is our 6 month anniversary :) They only have nutritional info for 3 or 4 menu items on their website. How disappointing. So, I'm probably going to use most, if not all of my flex points up. I really want a piece of that black tie mousse cake they have. Is it really worth using up most of my flex points for the week just to enjoy a peice of cake? Why do I feel so guilty for using my flexpoints on non-healthy stuff????? Who knows.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. Hope everyone is doing great! Have a wonderful and healthy day (lord knows I won't be... hehehe).

"Don't Cha wish your girlfriend looked hot like us...Don't Cha?" I am bored out of my mind here at work. So you have a thing for shoes and clothes. I did as a teenager now I am totally who out wack when it comes to clothes- I think I need a fashion makeover for myself. I recently decided to let my hair grow out. Right now I have what I call a white girl wanna be haircut. Short in the back and front but has volume and I smooth the side down, its cute but I want some funkiness to my hair. I always tend to resort back to the comfort hairdos for me. Anyway it is so freakin nice outside that I am held hostage at work...HELP!!!:mad:

Hey Amanda Mae haved you gone to Dotties Weightloss Zone she has all the restaurants and point values. Great site, I printed all the restaurants in my area and made a binder so that I could refer back to. She has a lot of cool information for other meal ideas too.

TryinAgain5402 04-05-2006 02:53 PM

I've been OOT and havent logged on - you guys are really hanging in there for each other! I'm figuring I need at least one week of good eating before I even brave a scale again; gotta make up for the travel food! We lived in Brownsville TX a lifetime ago and saw Selena at a Charro Days festival - this was back when nobody had ever heard of her - what a loss!
The Medifast thing you MUST have a doctor oversee; it can be dangerous if they don't monitor you. I like the "3 S" idea on someone's tag line - No seconds, no snacks, no ????????? Walking is the only thing I can force myself to do, but springtime in Washington, D.C. means cherry blossoms galore and more pollen than they can count! Good luck with all the weigh ins - i'm skipping this week!

I'm sooo pissed, I didn't go to the gym this morning, I'll force myself to go this evening...What the **** though,, this is totally unfair!!

Maybe you gained some muscle, that's always good but I know it doesn't help when you step on the scale. Are you seeing a difference in your clothes if you are then there you go. I'm the same way, don't get discouraged or fall off o.k. because we won't let you. Did you eat the same types of food for the week? I know I enjoy eating tuna salads from subway and did that for 3 days in a row and lost nada, go over your meals that you ate. Regardless we are all proud of you for keeping up the exercise momentum...KUDOS to you:carrot:

First off let me say you are a savvy shopper, you go girl... I'm all about some bargains that's for sure.

In your regards to the little burgers, that is it...they are little burgers. So you had one and it made you sick. You got it out of your system and it's a new day. :^: You are entitled to live girlfriend. :) Please don't beat yoruself up over it. Once again it's a learning experience. :hug:

Sarica 04-06-2006 05:33 PM

Hello ladies, hope everyone is doing great! Tomorrow is Friday! Yea! I have actually managed to stay off the scale for the last 3 days. :cb:

cjlafaye :hug: Don't get too upset with yourself, we all slip sometimes. Hope today was a better day for you!

cjlafaye 04-07-2006 10:17 AM

THANKS SARICA AND REGINA:hug: THAT IS WHY YALL ARE MY SISTA'S..

YESTERDAY WAS BETTER FOR ME. I HAD SOME SALMON PATTIES AND SALAD AND LC ICE CREAM. THE ICE CREAM GAVE ME BUBBLE GUTS BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!!

I AM TAKING A DAY OFF FROM TJ TODAY.. I AM GOING TO THE GYM IN HE MORNING..

SMOOCHES MY SISTA'S!!

GoofyGrl 04-07-2006 10:49 AM

Good Morning Sistas
 
How is everyone this morning? Here pretty o.k. I am working at a different branch today, so nice to be away from the drama at my branch. Well I had another good weigh-in I truly think that the support and the energy from our group is helping me a lot. I lost another 2 lbs for the week. :carrot: I was so happy when I got off the scale this morning. It is really ugly over here, they are expecting some nasty showers and possible tornado watches. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I'll write later.:^:

da fat n da furious 04-07-2006 11:39 AM

I went back to work yesterday,,,or as Id like to call it ****. I was so stressed by the time I left I was near tears and down right miserable. I barely slept thinking about having to go back there today.
I somehow ate clean yesterday the only thing I did right.
Ill be back once I feel more put together mentally I feel really down right now.

Amanda_mae 04-07-2006 01:27 PM

Awww Angie: :hug: Sorry to hear about the stress at your job. Kudos to you for keeping the good food up even though the day was rotten. When I have a rotten day I always want to turn to CHOCOLATE... so you should be very proud of yourself for keeping the eating clean.

Regina: I agree with you about the momentum and energy of this group keeping a person going. I know it's having that effect on me. Hope the weather isn't too bad for you today :)

Cassy: Don't sweat the White Castle incident. If it makes you feel any better, I got sick from the garbage I ate at Olive Garden. I had wine, and soup, breadsticks, chicken alfredo, and desert. I felt awful... we all have our moments. You live and learn. By the way, what kind of low carb ice cream do you eat? I lost a large portion of my weight by doing Atkins (about 40 lbs) and I LOVE the Blue Bunny Carb Freedom Peanut Butter Fudge... ohhh, the little chocolate peanut butter filled bunnies.... mmmm. I'm drooling! Hehehe.

Sarica: Way to go girl on staying off that scale!! I know it's hard to do, but it's so worth it.

I weighed in this morning and it's another 2 lb loss for me this week :carrot: :carrot: Prior to joining this group I was averaging about .5 to .8 lbs per week. Since joining it's been consistantly 2 or more! I would be lost without ya sistas!

Regina...Send some of those showers my way! We haven't had rain in several months. Hope it does not get too nasty for you. :smug:

Angie...:hug: Sorry you had such a rough day your first day back. Way to go on eating clean! I think I would have had me some chocolate too! :devil:


Amanda Mae...:carrot: 2 lbs! Awesome! You go girl!

As for me, I think I lost 1 lb, but I am not really sure. My scale is sooooo hard to read. During lunch I went to wal-mart and picked up a digital! I will know for sure tomorrow. Talk to yall later!

Where are the Sistas?
 
Congrats to Amanda Mae for your loss..you go girl:carrot:

Angie I wish your day had been a little better for you. Keep on smiling and know we are here for you when you want to vent :hug:

You all definetely didn't want the weather that I had over here...tornadoes in the area. I live in the Middle Tennessee area. A lot of damage in the surrounding counties, luckily for us nothing has happened yet.

Where are all of our sistas? Hope everyone is o.k. since our posting has been a little light lately. I know I know we are all busy women, just hoping we haven't lost our way...NO NEGATIVE THOUGHTS RIGHT...RIGHT!!!!!:p

Well let me close for now. I will send my shout outs tomorrow.:carrot:

I thought I lost you guys. I went to budding and you were gone. I lost a few threads already and was all upset but I found you now. Happy weekend.

Crystal: sorry you gained glad you still worked out.

Amanda Mae: good for you 2 more lbs. You will be one sexy cowgirl for sure by your holiday.

Angie: Hang in there it will get better at work. I was on strike from July 21-Nov 21/05 and about 1/2 the company stayed out anf 1/2 stayed in and worked. You want to tsalk stress!!! It was awful. We still have a few problems but it is getting better.

Cassy: start you day as a new day and forget the burgers. They are outta your system now.

I weighed in on Thursday and stayed the same...AGAIN. I know that I shouldn't complain but i was soooo disappointed. :( I was sure I was down 3 lbs. Damn scale I hate it. However on a good note.....I was trying on old jean that I haven't been able to wear in years and they fit!!! :))

One of the ladies in my ww group said that when this happens to her she goes right back to basics and sets a short term goal for 2-3 weeks and then starts to track everything all over like she just started as a new member. So this week I am trying out the core plan and hopefully this will jump start my body into dropping a bit of this weight. I know in my mind I am still doing good things but I sometimes get stuck on the numbers. So I have my tracking book and my pen with me at all times.

I did go to curves 3 times and walked my dog 3 times so that was good too. Today we also had rain but it is still quite cold here yet only 4 celcius! too cold to be walking in the rain for my puppy. his feet get cold!

Well ladies have a great and VERY slim weekend & I will be thinking about you and hoping all is on track.

Remember tomorrow is a new day!!!!

sehh 04-08-2006 12:35 AM

oh yes and ANNCHARLIE welcome and I TOTALLY love your cow! Cows are the greatest things alive!!!!

Regina, Im here and in a better mood even though I was BAAAAD! Today is going to be a clean day...no junk.

Sandy, you may have not lost the weight but you must of lost inches to fit
the jeans so to me that is an accomplishment.

Amanda Mae that is so great 2 more homeless pounds. When I was doing the body for life I found that cheat day was great then as I got really into the program I would find that I could only do one cheat meal,,,a whole day would have me in the bathroom the next day sick. Our bodies do become use to eating the clean life. Its alright to do a cheat meal,,,makes you appreciate eating clean,,,cause you don't feel as rotten!...lol

Cassy, I am so with you,,,once you have read the rest of my post you will understand. A bit of an emotional binge here. So today is a new day, going to go have a glass of water and do my vits, and have breakfast.

Sarah, lets hope that scale doesn't give you too much grief,,,just say you lost the pound!

Thanks everyone for the support, Friday was a bit better, but not much, I came home, ate pizza and drank a whole bottle of wine...of course we had company and everything just went down so easy.

Hi ladies'... I'm back :O) I was feeling down yesterday, today is gonna be better, I swear!! I will not let that darn scale let me down again...
Today was my final day on my mini-goal of 179.8, I almost acheived it, I weighed 180.2 this morning!! That feels pretty good :O)
It sounds like we're all in the same boat when it comes to dieting, emotions, and all the craziness in the middle!! It's so nice to know I'm not alone... My new goal is to stay off the scale for at least a week.... Let's see if I can do it :O)
Good health and great energy sistas'.. Talk later , Crystal :O)

Hi! I'm new to this site! You sound like such a wonderful group...I was wondering if you have room for 1 more sista?! Thank you!

cherrylatte 04-10-2006 03:01 PM

:o) Howdy sistas'....Hope everyone had a great weekend!! I did all weekend, I'm feelin' very proud now :O) I accept your pact, no weighing until the end of this week...Scales really can be sooo evil can't they?!?! I really need to control my obsession with the scales, it's definately doing me more harm than good :O)
I made it to the gym this morning, I'm still eating within my calories, I'd really love to feel some results right about now!! What a long journey weightloss is.. I know I didn't get fat overnight, but it seemed alot faster when I was gaining the weight than it's taking to lose it!!
Talk with ya later girlies... Crystal :O)
