The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

[bella14]

I am starting medifast today. I purchased a large quantity of supplies and now is the day that I am going to start my weight loss journey. I am kind of nervous. I was not overweight as a child or a teenager, mine started after I had my son at age 19. My son will be seven next month. He has never seen his mom at a healthy weight. I have been divorced for about a year and a half. I lost 30 lbs with in a few months of the divorce. Now, I have leveled off at around 180. This morning when I weighed I weighed 178.5 I would like to loose 35 lbs to start with and then go from there. I have been visiting this web site since about the end of May. I am encouraged by the success and support of everyone. Thanks for reading my rambling message. Hopefully soon I will have a weight loss success to post for myself.

I hope that everyone has a great day and a wonderful week losing weight and getting healthy!!!

Hey Bella!

I am starting today too. Maybe we can help one another stay in check. The 3rd or 4th day can be the hardest and then you are used to it. Good luck!

Thanks for all of y'all's encouragement.

Heather - I think that it would be great if we could kind of keep up with each other. I am looking forward to both of us posting our own success stories.

I am considering starting this program also. I am Type II diabetic and am overweight. I need to desperately lose about 50 lbs for my height/weight proportions and also to see if I can get off the oral medications to treat the diabetes.

Is this program really for real? Has anyone had success on the diabetic program?

I am restricted financially, so I really need to make a wise decision regarding buying diet products. I guess I am looking for other success stories.

Thanks for any feedback. I have not started the program yet, but I am considering it very seriously.

Welcome Bella and Heather...

We are so glad to have you....newbies and oldies alike!! We all encourage and inspire one another to keep shaking!! The more the merrier!!!

Hi Cynthia: We are so glad you have found this forum. I, like yourself was very skeptical about this diet and whether it would work. After stalking the forum for a few weeks, I decided to take the plunge and go for it. I can say with 100% honesty that this program is for real. If you work the program, it will work for you. I personally do not use the diabetic products, but have read about many of the success of those who do and I'm sure they will be chiming in soon.

My only regret is that I didn't start sooner....now after one month I'm almost 20 pounds lighter and have lost one dress size and three inches off my waist!!! If you need further validation of the program's success, please make sure and visit the Roll Call section of the forum and read about everyone's successes and the support we give one another every day.

I sincerely hope you also make the decision to start the Medifast program....you won't regret it!!

Good luck to you and hope to see you around the forum often!!

Have a wonderful week!

Ash's mom - I just noticed your stats are almost EXACTLY like mine (which I do not want to post just yet) so I'll be thinking of you as my weight loss "buddy" from now on....You're doing great by the way!

Cynthia--

Yes this program is for real ..I have been here 4 months as of the 18th and have lost a little over 70#. I haven't done the diabetic supplements but they work great I am told..I understand about the money part too but I figured up I spent much more eating out everyday than on this program.. The only difference is we don't notice it as much because we spend a little each day instead of all at 1 time like this program..It makes all the difference in my life.. I know it works. if you follow it as it is laid out...hope this helps--Martha
