Well, I am back from my Miami vacation and let me tell you, Medifast is do-able on vacations! It was not the easiest thing I have done, but thanks to my sister and her already healthy lifestyle, I made it through! We stayed active and went to the beach, a water park and rode this cool 6-seater bike around the Miami Zoo, pedaling all afternoon. The only thing I did do was take a bite of key lime pie…arghhhhhhhhhhh, ok and a glass of wine, but that was it! I was actually satisfied with only a nibble.

I started Medifast May 1st and have lost 24 lbs! I have been steady at 1-3 lbs. a week the whole time. I know others have lost more or faster but I guess this is just the way I lose. I feel fantastic and very determined! I am going to ramp up the exercise a bit and see if that helps get me to my 40 lb. goal by my birthday Aug 18th!

I have become an inspiration! Two of my dearest friends started Medifast today! They have a catering business and one is a chef. I am so happy to have inspired them to begin a healthier lifestyle. I know it won’t be easy for them the first few days, they are use to having delicious food at their disposal all day long…
