New Beginnings in 2008

Postby tnanock » January 1st, 2008, 9:02 am

I've heard that 2008 is the year of new beginnings. Well, I am starting my year by restarting Medifast. I used MF back in 2005, experienced success, but then let life get in the way.

I am 36 years old, a wife to a wonderful husband, and a mother to 3 children--ages 12, 10, and 3 (all boys) ;) I teach computer technology at the junior high level. I have struggled with my weight all of my adult life. I have only been at my goal weight of 165 pounds one time in the last 18 years.

My MF products will probably not be here until Monday. :( I have left over supplements from another program that I will begin using tomorrow to help me make the transition to complete MF by Monday or Tuesday of next week.

I have over 60 lbs to lose and seeing all the successes on this board, lets me know that it is possible to lose it quickly and permanently if I remain compliant. :D

So here's to new beginnings!!!

I have to be careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business.

Looks like there are quite a few restarters!! We can do it.....taking it one day at a time! I can't wait to get my products in....motivation is so high.

My mother mentioned to me today that she was going to lose weight this year....(I see myself being her---having to deal with being overweight all her life---if I don't change something now) She mentioned wanting to go back to weight watchers but I think I want to talk to her about doing Medifast with me. We'll see. I definitely am coming out of the closet this time though. Last time, I tried doing it in secret----didn't even tell my hubby until the products came in :oops: --but I think that hindered me.

I guess I was afraid of 'negative' talk....but now that I think about it, I don't think anyone would do that. And if they do, I'll just tell them that this is a lot healthier than the way I've been eating and leave it at that.

Anyway, good luck to everyone. Let's make 2008 the best year yet!!
