They have a team of nutritionists and dieticians that can definitely help you out and identify where you might be going wrong or what might need to be tweaked. I am doing the same to iron out my no-loss, big-loss weeks. I think there are probably some individual tweaks we all need to make based on our individual bodies, lifestyles and food tolerances. Hang in there, it does work! Karen & Margo, I will continue to post as often as possible and I really appreciate the comments and support. It makes the experience so much easier to be able to share and hear from people going through the same thing. Weight loss is a difficult road to say the least and sticking together is where it is at!

Tommorrow will be my third weigh in although I'm doing the physician plan of 5 shakes a ady and no solid food. Although I'm down a little over 20 pounds, my mind keeps playing tricks on me. Today I was breezing along feeling great (if you don't count the hunger pains that are my new constant companions) and my team had a lunch meeting at a Chinese restuarant. I took my Medifast with me, but as soon as we opened the door, my resolve crumbled like a cheap fortune cookie. Now I'm back at my desk with a headache, swollen fingers and a foggy brain. Why can't I remember how icky I feel when I fall off the plan? Incidentally, I've never fallen off in the middle of the day before. Should I not eat/drink anything else the rest of day in hopes of salvaging my calorie count for the day or should I drink my remaining shakes? Weigh in tomorrow morning will be brutal! Appreciate anyone's thoughts on my disaster recovery plan for the day - AM I started a little after you as well.

I'm wondering why I'm so wierd? I have an oatmeal pack in the morning, a bar around 9 (sometimes I forget this or feel like I don't need it), pudding for lunch, shake mid-afternoon, a lean/green dinner, and a shake in the evening. Does that sound right? I try to drink 60ish ounces of H2O, but I aslo drink just about as much diet soda. Any suggestions? I’ve been “doing” Medifast for 4 weeks and haven’t lost a pound.
