Quick question: How to get through the induction phase of the Medifast Diet? Thanks in advance for any answer or 2. Another question on my mind: Other topics will be discussed that may not be appropriate for the easily offended.. |
|
|
|
I would like to know the answer too. Anyone here know what is the answer to your question. I'll do some research and get back to you if I bump into an useful answer. You should email the people at Medifast as they probably can answer it..

Well it's morning for me.....
Hey, you know all those healthy soy isoflavones we eat so much of? Did you know that 2mg of soy isoflavones is roughly equivalent to 1mg of CLOMID? Gee, yeah, so glad I found that out NOW!! (Worked with my doc tonight. He was laughing his butt off at me and said if I have twins he's shipping me to Spokane to deliver! Arrgghh.... there'd better only be one kid in there.). Good night at work tonight... need to finish all my ER paperwork though. Catch you guys once someone else wakes up!.. |
|
Ella, what's CLOMID???? Ella - are you having twins? When's your ultrasound?.
Good morning and thank you Susan! Peet's is great stuff - I need it.. Waving hi to everyone, I have to go upstate NY to play carpenter's assistant all day with dh at his sister's house. We're ripping apart the basement walls and ceiling. So if I have any energy at all I'll check back in tonight. I have my food and all the stuff I need packed and ready to go.. Much love to all!!!. Melissa.. |
|
Clomid is a drug used to induce ovulation in women who otherwise do not ovulate. In women who do ovulate it can hyperstim ovulation (hence Jon and Kate Plus 8... those are clomid babies)..
From what I undertand, soy is much milder in it's effects so despite Connor's desperation to choose a boatload of ridiculous MFing nicknames, twins would be about the max. Add to that my age (39), the fact that I just lost a decent amount of weight (estrogen dump), the fact that I am still considered overweight, and the fact that I already have seven children (these are all risk factors for twins).... and my doc says that he wouldn't be surprised in the least.. I'm seriously hoping NOT.... even twins are high enough risk, I live in the middle of flippin' NOWHERE and I would have to get shipped 3 hours away to Spokane to give birth and I really want to work up until delivery which will not be possible with twins.. Ultrasound is the week of May 2nd... |
|
Twins. OMG. Well, Ella, whatever it is, it's a blessing. Just keep telling yourself that...
|
|
While that's true, Steph, I have ALWAYS said that I've been very happy that God has chosen to send me my blessings one at a time. I stand by that!..
|

Yawwwwn, Good morning (rubbing eyes) I'm in a fog. My stupid alarm clock is on the fritz and it was bad enough going to bed at midnight because house guests got here at 11pm but, to have the alarm go off loudly at 3:30am was killer. Then work up abruptly with a nightmare at 5am - gosh haven't had one of those in ages. When one involves my son...I can't get back to sleep. It was horrible.
So up and out of bed by 5:30, ready to hit the shower now and when the stores open...I need to run around and try to find something to wear to this shin-dig. All my jeans are falling down and I"m constantly pulling up my bra straps. Wouldn't mind not doing that with 70 people around. I don't want to be the one they remember at the party, up there dancing and have my...... PANTS ON THE GROUND, PANTS ON THE GROUND, LOOKIN LIKE A FOOL, WITH DA PANTS ON DA GROUND (hee hee sorry couldn't help myself.).. |
|
Please tell me you don't really have 70 people in your house???..
|
|
Good morning tl'ers.... So glad it's the weekend!!.
Melissa. - Hope you have a good day today.. Sounds like a lot of work. Ella. - Congrats.. I hope you are feeling well.. Twins with seven older siblings would kill me, but I know you could handle it... Sue. - Thanks for the coffee... I don't get to see you on here a lot, being on different time zones is tough.. I hope to see you in chat soon. Steph. - Good morning hope you have a great day!!!. Today is a me day!!! work out, color my hair, mani/ pedi.. Then my usual food shopping laundry and paying bills.... I even got to sleep until 7am today woo hoo... I am so happy I can have an easy relaxing day... I will not be rushed at all.... Cindy.. |
|
I had a bad dream too, Sherry, but not bad like yours was - just one of those where you wake up in a panic. I dreamed that we were getting sued for 71k in damages to some rental house we'd lived in years ago that neither of us could even remember living in! I was yelling at some realtor about it when I woke up..
I have very, very vivid, strange dreams. People keep telling me that we don't really dream in stories, but mine always come out in stories, for some reason. Elaborate, full color stories, frequently involving everyone I know. I dream about you guys sometimes, and when I don't know what you look like, I apparently make it up... |
|
Sherry.
- Good morning you popped in while I was typing... Have fun shopping it will be great buying clothes you never thought you could wear... As for the bra, treat yourself and go to Nordstroms and get professionally fitted... Your ta ta's will love it!!!!. Cindy.. |
|
Steph.
- I barely remember my dreams but when I do they seem to be crazy...... |
|
Good late morning everyone..
Ella. , I wonder if that explains why I have regular TOM on Medifast but really infrequent ones otherwise? Interesting.. Cindy. , I'm so glad to see you are having a me day. You need to have them more often!. Steph. , I have incredibly vivid dreams too. The one I was having last night was wonderful, then bam it turned into a ridiculous nightmare. I'm so accustomed to such elaborate dreams that only the very worst ones bother me anymore.. I had my weekend breakfast - plain pancake waffle topped with 1/4 cup cottage cheese, 1 tbsp vermont sugar free syrup, and a dusting of cinnamon. It is ridiculously delicious. Now I have to attempt to do something useful, but it's not looking promising. I just want to flop... |
|
Zoe... thanks for the inspiration... I'm going to have pancakes when I get home from work!.
As for the TOM, it would make sense. Many people think that a woman happens to ovulate halfway through a 28 day cycle... the truth is, approximately 14 days after ovulation, a new cycle starts (assuming no pregnancy)... therefore, if you aren't ovulating with regularity your cycle will not be regular... |
|
Ella you just made me very grateful for my dh's vasectomy. I do not need more children, I loe the two I've got and the thought of multiples (b/c aside from having a lot of kids, I have all the other factors).... here's to there only being ONE in there for you!!.
Good Morning to the rest of you too! I think we're going to apply for 2-3 houses today and hope we get one of them!.. |
|
Susan.
, thanks for the coffee! Im chilling some now to mix with my chocolate shake.. Hi,. Ella. ! How are you feeling so far? I know if you are cooking twins, you will handle them with perfection and grace.. Melissa. , sounds like youll be busy today. Glad you have all your food prepped and packed!. Morning. Steph/Corbie. ! Glad the $71k was just a dream.. erm.. nightmare!. Hey. Sherry. ! Sorry about the sleep issues. I dont have nightmares that involve harm to my son I guess it's a protective mechanism and my brain just will NOT go there. Its disturbing enough to wake up from a dream where I was mad at DH and not be able to shake the mad even after Im fully awake. I cant imagine dreaming about something happening to my son Id be a wreck ALL DAY. Good luck finding some pantses that wont expose you and a bra to hold your ta-tas up!. Cindy. , a me day sounds wonderful! Enjoy it!. Morning,. Zoe. ! If you decide to flop today, will you soak up the relaxation or stress about all you should be doing? If you can take the day for yourself, do it!. Hi,. Anna. ! Hope you get just the right house.. I really don't know what today holds for me, other than baseball practice at 10 and laundry. I have some other things I need to get done - may tackle some of those today too. My weigh in was less than spectacular, with a loss of .8, but that's .8 in the right direction, AND a new (adult) lifetime low weight. Gotta go change my ticker!.. |
|
Good morning, tough loveies! Just a quick drive by as I get ready to take DD to the state museum for our girly outing while DH is working..
Jasmine, I swore my bead lady said AA but when I read AAA+ I almost remembered those words coming out of her mouth. Since they were under lock and key, and quite pricey, I'll have to ask her. There was no indication on the tag, just the size and the price. They are absolutely breathtaking, though. I will be playing more later today. I'll also likely list the earrings and the ring. Ok, DD wants to go, so I'd better get to stepping.. BBL..... |
|
Good morning, everyone! And there are only two pages of TL by the time I got up and onto my computer... that must be some kind of record. Unfortunately, it means that I didn't get the extensive amount of sleep I was hoping to I need 10 or so hours of sleep in order to best function. Does anyone know if insomnia tends to go along with MF? I feel like I've had many more sleep issues after I started MF..
Speaking of dreams, I seem to be having a lot of those, lately, too. The other day I had a weird one that was really eerie and. The Ring. -like. Kind of freaked me out, especially since I woke up to a thunderstorm outside.. Putting my issues aside how is everyone doing today?.. |
|
If they are deep blue with very even coloration, have nice, visibly golden pyrite inclusions and no pits, they probably are AAA+. But the grading is pretty subjective, so one person's AA might be another person's AAA+. If they are gorgeous, they just are!..
|
|
Good (late) morning TL-er's!.
My my my but we are a bunch of busy bee's. Today is sort of chilly here (so far, but not raining, and birds are peeping out there, so we'll see what the day brings as far as outside activities. Like my page says, I tend to fly by the seat of my pants (except for my MF, those I pack!) So today is a definite "Flying" day. I know I need to get to the market, but beyond that, it's just general housekeeping. and what may come.... No chopped tofu until I've get my sh*t together today! I will BBL... |
|
I have to get my sh*t together too...sorry..
I just dropped by to report my weight loss of 2 pounds this week.. At this point in my journey, 2 pounds seems like a HUGE loss!. I truly love you guys. Hopefully I will be able to read later today...but maybe not post. In any case.... ...have a great day!.. |
|
Happy Saturday Lovelies!!!.
Great loss. Pittie!. Ella. - Twins. If anyone can do it, you can. Good luck at your US.. Thanks for the coffee. Susan. Anna. - Good luck on the house hunt today. You have great weather for it.. Hi to. Penny. (I need to go see your new pretties),. Jasmine, Keri, Steph, Sherry, Zoe, Claire. And whoever else just posted.I'm sure someone did.. It's a gorgeous Saturday here. Taking the little one to a Kindergarten meeting. Then grocery shopping and errands and house stuff. The ususal... |
|
Good morning TLers...almost afternoon! Quick check-in before my day is gone. We have a surprise birthday party at 2, dinner at 5:30 and theater at 8. My RI sis gave her 2 MI sisters tickets to Mama Mia for Christmas, so tonight's the night. Gotta go to the really big city, but it'll be fun. So we'll be attending the b-day party in our theater clothes. It's cold & rainy, so maybe my LBD isn't appropriate.
That's the best part - I feel like I'm playing 'dress up'. All the cute things I got last summer are awaiting sorting and packing for our trip (16 days. ), but I'm sure I can mix & match something for a night on the town in these chilly climes.. Sorry, no chopped tofu this morning. Thanks for the coffee - goes great with my mug of pancake.. Have a FABULOUS OP Saturday!!. {{{Hugs all around}}}.. |
|
Morning TLers..
Beautiful day today, not much to do but clean the house and possibly hang out in my sky chair, and I wake up sneezing my head off and have a splitting headache. HATE allergies! On the up side, I am down another lb. Woot!.. |
|
Good morning y'all!.
Cindy, hope you have a wonderful "me" day! I want one too. Soon.... Anna, good luck on getting the house you want.. Pittie and Jasmine, hooray for your losses!. Keri, you need to get your sh*t together!!! LOL. Claire, I too need 10 hours of sleep to feel rested. That usually does not happen. The kids get up way to early!. Just a "hi" and "hope you have a great day" to everyone else! Sorry, I'm being lazy!. I don't think I posted at all yesterday! Was out the entire time. Took my daughter shopping for some more summer clothes, followed by birthday shopping for my second cousin and shopping for my brother's girlfriend's sister's housewarming gift, followed by dinner with family from out of town. Busy day! Not much going on today, just sitting around the house with the kiddos I think. Still haven't smoked. Had some CRAZY dreams last night! Too weird to even attempt to explain! Had my weigh in this morning and I'm down 2.8... |
|
Good morning lovelies!.
Ella, hope there's only 1 in there.... Sherry-hehe, you crack me up.. Congrats to all the losers!.. |
|
I am sooo ****** off right now! My "chocolate chip pancakes" have no chocolate chips. WTH. I really wanted to put an F there. Should I call medifast?..
|
|
Kris.
YES - definitely call MF! CC pancakes w/o CC...not acceptable!.. |
|
Good morning ladies!.
Scale was kind this morning - down 3.8 i'm ALMOST ready to ask for my banner, I told myself if I could get to 20lbs 100% I would ask. so maybe next week.. Claire - ring dream sounds VERY spooky and I want to know more.. Ella - good to "see" you. keep us posted. in the meantime i'm going to WATCH my cycle like a beast. so not ready for a 2nd kid.. Grats to all the losers!. Anna - have fun house shopping.. Kris - PROTEST! I just had my first chocolate chip pancake yesterday and fell in love. when I poured in the pan all the chips ended up in the center so when I ate it - total heaven!. Cindy - enjoy your day - that sounds fan freaking tastic. Today is furniture moving/put together day - if I can get the crib out and the bed in i'll probably call it a day and then maybe bike the berkeley marina for some festival they are throwing and finish the rest tomorrow. and dying easter eggs is on for sometime today...i only have brown eggs - you think that will work or should I go buy some white ones?. Have a great on plan day everyone. xoxoxo - teri.. |
|
Good morning lovelies. Very late start for me. I was up until 2am last night. Ella, we could have called eachother. I must be taking this 4 day vaca very seriously..
Slept until almost 8. Totally unheard of for me. Meeting a lady at TGIF parking lot for more Pirate Booty. Someone stop me. I cannot pass up a deal.. Bad dreams..I rarely have them, but when I do, they are doozies. I won't go into detail about the skinless man jogging along side of my car as I drove to the beach. Eww.. Steph. , I laughed when I read that you were yelling at a Realtor. Of course you were. I would expect nothing less than you straightening his *** out.. Kris. , call them on Monday. They are so nice about replacements. I was missing packets out of 4 of my boxes in my last shipment. I expected to receive 4 packets. No, I received 4 boxes. They did suggest I not eat the ones I had because it sometimes means they are returns that were not properly inspected. Try not to think about that too hard. They put them through a rigorous inspection process... |
|
Cindy.
, I don't go into chat very often. The straw that broke the camels back was the guy who claimed to have eaten an entire jar of sludge and he still lost because of his extreme amount of exercise. I called his bluff and I was jumped on my him and a pack of newbies who wanted to believe him. I was done at that point... |
|
I remember that. He posted on MFC the next day, same thing. He hasn't been seen sice. hehe..
|
|
De.
, yes, he has officially bowed out, but that was so distasteful I realized real time chat is dangerous. I find myself getting uptight because some new people like to believe what will allow them sludge and I got so tired of fighting the good fight. Easier in here where everyone is on the same page. People who are wanting information so they can do the right thing by themselves are one thing, but those who just want to hurry up and find away around the system drive me nuts and I have no patience for it. I'm too old and biaatchy for it.. ETA:. De. , in case you are wondering, I had NOTHING to do with his mysterious disappearance. I swear I didn't... |
|
Sue.
- You know there are some really good people on chat.. please dont abandon.... Popping in for a sec.. hair color came out awesome, having puffs and off for my mani & pedi.. woo hoo.. Be back later. Cindy.. |
|
I believe I told you that in the beginning when you asked why I didn't go in there <snicker>..
|
|
Uh yeah, I do remember asking you that. I thought to myself "oh pishaww". Moral of the story..listen to.
De. .. Always. Listen to De... |
|
I'm HOME..
Just peeking in to say Buongiorno, mi Amicas.. Had a trip of lifetime and am extremely jetlagged. Been up over 27 hours and just fried. I'm not even sure what day it is let alone whether I should be sleeping or doing laundry, but trust me the former sounds better than the latter right now.. I've got so much to share with you all, and a ton of info to process based on what I saw, felt, and did this past month.. Slw. The ring was perfect and so many folks commented.. The most important news:. The. PINK. Bundles are still safely cuddled up on the inside and are 33 weeks now. Woo to the Hootey Hoooo!. Hugs and I WILL check in later... |
|
Chatty - SO glad you're back. Missed you. I am amazed at how well the bundles are doing. Far surpassed the original prognosis!! WOOT!!!..
|
|
I just watched.
Elephant. ... talk about disturbing. But I knew what I was getting into, so I only have myself to blame for being totally haunted.. By the way, I haven't been in chat for about a month because I'm totally sick of newbies not reading the literature and then asking questions that are OBVIOUS (not just intuitive) based on the stuff you get with the box. It's like, if you're going to spend that much money on this diet, don't you want to do plenty of research before you start?.. |
|
Thanks.
De,. And you are so right. When they contemplated taking them at 23 weeks, we all held our breaths and hit our knees.. Dr. said DD#1 is just doing amazing. Of course, she is so uncomfortable and measures 43 weeks along for a singleton. She is on bed rest from 1 pm on each day, only allowed up a few hours each morning, but that may change this next week... |
|
Oh - I kind of liked that movie..
The book columbine is really amazing - an in depth look at what happened. I highly recommend it.. T... |
|
CHATTERS!!!.
So good to hear from you and hootey hoot on the pinks.. Are you guys talking about Water For Elephants? I don't think I can see it. Animal abuse is too upsetting for me. Worse than chat on it's worst day.. Claire. , you hit the nail on the head. Needing info is one thing..not even bothering to get the very basics before you invest is another AND what's worse is going into it determined to manipulate. Oh well..moving on. It's Saturday and the Pinks are doing well... |
|
Oh wait..you guys are talking about a movie about Columbine High School? I saw the documentary that what's his name did. Was it called Elephants?.
I'm obviously so confused at this point. Time for cocoa... |
|
No, not water for elephants just.
Elephant. I'm not sure where the title comes from, but it's a fictional film by Gus Van Sant based on the Columbine shootings.. I admit that I've done my part to manipulate (though I don't consider that the correct word), but only because my options in the cafeteria are extremely limited on some days... |
|
Claire.
, I am talking about people who manipulate the system because they want their sludge and eat it too. I do consider manipulate the correct word. Not meaning what you are doing..I don't know what you mean, but I do know what they mean when they work sludge in on purpose because they simply want it... |
|
Yeah, I get what you mean. I guess my kind of "manipulation" just involves being all right with eating a little extra sauce on my chicken because I'm not sure what they're marinating it in, and it's my only option for lean. Overall, I think I've done quite well with the options I have in the cafeteria! I'm pretty proud of myself when I think about it...
|
|
Claire.
, having been to St Vincent Hospital and OHSU (teaching hospital) cafeterias, I would say you have one of the biggest challenges around. I know tons of sodium is a common problem. Both of these hospitals have gone to great lengths to change that. I admire them for that. Hopefully schools will start doing the same thing... |
|
I remember cafeteria days! I feel for you Claire! At least you only have to suffer through one meal a day. Yay 5&1!!.
Chatty - You're going to have to fill me in when you're rested. I've been thinking about Boxers a lot lately... |
|
Hey peeps..
Downer sort of day. Lost less than a pound this week. Still have a cold from Hades and sick of the Medifast food.. Any tips for a pick-me-up? And motivation that is lagging really badly... |
|
Greetings Tough Lovlies/Tofuties!.
Chatty:so happy about the pink bundles. Thank You, God!. Kris: you are doing so very well OP and no sm. Congratulations on both!. Hi Keri!. I have always dreamt in color. I wonder who doesn't?. Will turn 63 this week. Hooray!. Had a mammogram this week and the tech was stunned with the weight I've lost OP. She wanted all the details.. Really tired.. Can't weigh for 5 weeks on this other program I'm doing too. It's such a nice complement to MF. It is such a joy to log each and every meal! I'm serious. I love it.. Ella: good luck!. Anna: good luck!. Love to all, Beth.. |
|
Hi everyone. I hope you have all been well. Its been a zoo around here. I had some course work to finish, which I really didn't want to finish by the deadline after I found out that the raise I expected the course work to get me won't happen for another 3 years. Just sapped the motivation out of me. Of course I kicked my inner brat (didn't want Steph to kick me or De to slap me) and I finished.
Then I slept. Ah, but today is a new day!. Got up this morning at 5 am to run a mile so I could drive an hour to a race I had signed up for about a month of so ago. All week long I had been watching the weather. I knew a nasty storm was coming. My students told me yesterday that I shouldn't be a wimp and just go out and run today. So I popped up out of bed, got ready for a quick run. The wind was howling, the rain was falling and the temp was cold. I know....now Steph really will slap me!. So....in a quest to burn some calories, that otherwise would have been burned and in honor of those who will slap me anywhere....I did one of my Sweating to the Oldies tapes. You bet. Danced with Richard Simmons. What else is a girl to do when the weather is bad?.. |
|
Morning all. Missed all day yesterday. I was in the hospital hooked up to all sorts of machines. Having heart issues but staying OP, even with the swill they brought me for dinner. Home and weak as a kitten, but got up long enough to weigh on my regular day. Lost another 2.4 in week 4 if my math is right (weigh 183.6 this a.m.).
It is important to me. A nice weekend to you all.. PS: just noticed I have less than 50 lbs to goal. That is a good thing! Back to bed... |
|
Conner.
Here is a silly pick me up just for you. I think Prince Henry is my favorite.. Http://royalwedding.yahoo.com/blogs/...t-spoofed-4952.. |
|
Here's another one I love. This was done by my friends and colleagues at Providence St Vincent hospital. I love it..
Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEdVfyt-mLw.. |
|
Connor when in doubt, look at pictures of Shiba Inu puppies..
Etc.!.. |
|
If I knew how, I would put a little "Sweating to the Oldies" clip in here. That will surely pick up your spirits...
|
|
Do that Barb and I will banish you forever!!!!.
Connor -. SMACK!!!. Get over it!. Time to stop feeling sorry for yourself and get back in the game. Hang out with us occasionally and maybe we can lift your spirits... |
|
Banish me forever? But where on the Medifast site will I go to talk about pickles? And whiz? I was gonna say sludge, but well, I can find places to talk about that...
|
|
De...you're soooo mean..
I'm crying in my stupid Medifast shake right now. No. Really. I am. *runs sobbing from the boards, but trips and falls over a pickle*. Those clips were fab. And now on top of it all, I want a Shiba Inu!!. Where's Ella? I need an episode of Ella Plus Eight(een)! I need to name some more babies!.. |
|
Yes banish you! We have GOT to update the rules prohibiting any and all images of Hoff and RS!!!.
I have made the mistake of venturing outside the clubhouse, since you are all not sufficiently entertaining me. Lesson learned. One whiny cheat thread after another, only to be competed with the threads about how to eat off plan or non-MF foods and still be successful, or gloating "Hey I cheated and lost weight aren't I special" threads... |
|
I have some pretty awful ones sometimes, and they're as vivid as if it were actually happening. I used to have panic attacks in my sleep because of bad dreams. For whatever reason, that's better now - my theory is that I had a touch of sleep apnea when I was fat that aggravated the dreams and the panic..
On yelling at the realtor - I've yet to figure out what a realtor had to do with getting sued for 71k for a place we couldn't remember having ever rented. I think I just threw the realtor in for fun. lol.. |
|
CHATTY!!!!!!! I missed you!!!!! so glad the babies are well, and you had a great time!..
|
|
Nah, I won't slap you. I can stand wet. I can stand cold. I can stand wind. I will NOT do all three together. Life is just too freakin' short. Dunno what I'll do if the MCM is cold, wet, and windy...
|
|
Steph, you will run because I will be waiting every so many miles with dry and comfortable! I have to admit, when I was skimming earlier I say the 71K and I thought....has Steph lost her mind? That's some training for the MCM!.
De....you should know better than to venture out. RS and the Hoff could be out there!.. |
|
Hm, I'm really suspicious now... this pudding shake I just made tastes different than normal (and I should know I had five boxes left so I've been eating them every night). I wonder if someone before me left some of their sludge in the dorm blender and now I'm going to pay for it on the scale! Hopefully it's fine..
Connor: Yes, everyone should want a Shiba Inu! They're adorable and smart and dignified. I've had three total in my life was born with a dog in the family, then we bought two more when I was 8. They're old now.. Ugh. My wall-mate is being grating and annoying again. What is SO F'ING FUNNY? Seriously, I need to get me some of that crack... |
|
Um....
Clairey.. ..I'm pretty sure crack isn't OP. Never mind, that according to Whitney (and she should know) Crack is whack... |
|
We had fun at the museum, despite my need to stop and sit every 15 minutes or so. Oh, my aching back. But I scored some sweet tumbled stones and hung out with the peanut for awhile. Getting ready to go to the Supermegagrocerystore for some food. Maybe since taxes are paid I can shake a dinner out of DH.....
|
|
Um..okay.
Keri. We get it. Who is whitney? Do you mean from the Hills? Except she went to her own show in NY? The City?.. |
|
LOL.
Keri. , oh that's right. I remember that...as she twitched... |
|
I know Penny... Apparently my network connection was watching "Groundhog Day" in it's down time. LOL Not.
Quite. Sure just what happened with that one! LOL.. |
|
Oh, Keri - Didn't anyone tell you? We are ALL on crack.....MEDIcrack!.
Penny - Glad you had fun with E. I am having a completely lazy, unproductive day. That funk from a few days ago is still hanging on, and I just don't want to do a damned thing. hehe. Maybe a good dose of Vit. D and some outside time will help perk me up.. 148/2/14...... |
|
Medifats...Medifarts...Medicrack...it's all good. Just so long as I continue to drop my layers of fluff...
|
|
Don't forget MediCement! You know, the stuff you have to chisel out of your cup or bowl if you don't immediately wash it after eating!.
Tara.. |
|
MediCement happens when you eat puffs too. You know..the stuff that gathers on your back teeth? The food that's left when the packet is empty? It's like a special snack...
|
|
OK. 40 minutes of yard work in 90 degree temps is a stewpid idea!..
|
|
The Medifast meal that just keeps on giving......
Try eating those with damaged salivary glands! 2 puffs, guzzle water, remove residue, repeat... |
|
De.
- I m so jealous that you have 90 degree weather... It's pouring ad freezing here.. Mid April and I am having a fire.... Cindy.. |
|
Well yeah! Besides, I'm not driving all the way there to watch it on TV. lol.
71k would be like 44 miles. Um.... no. No ultras... |
|
De.
, sounds like you could use some dental tools for such occasions... |
|
OK, now I'm just depressed. It's freakin' SNOWING here. [sigh]..
|
|
No snow here-yet. But the wind is ridiculous and if it rains any more I'm going to need a boat to go anywhere. Oh well, at least it will blow/wash away the MediCement!.
Tara.. |
|
Sorry Steph. You could always come and visit me! I happen to have a spare room....
Finally got my core temp back down. It's been a while and I forgot this little side effect of Medifast for me. It seems to accelerate my body temperature in the summer. I can freeze indoors, but go outside and do anything remotely physical and suffer heat exhaustion! Hopefully I will be done in a couple of months before it REALLY gets hot here. It's actually very pleasant outside. I just need to keep my outside activities to the early morning, late afternoon/evenings. Oh, and I have more sprouts coming up in my garden and some tomatoes starting to form on one of my heirloom plants! WOOT!.. |

I got two to three inches last night (of snow, you pervs) and it's already almost melting. It didn't stop me from stomping around angrily though. Hopefully it's the last storm before the real spring..
Just placed another Medifast order today. I added the southwest scrambled eggs, coffee soft serve and the tropical fruit punch to my rotation. I think I am the only one in the world who doesn't order the brownies in bulk. They're ok, but not my favorite. I just realized I have cranberry mango drink too. Woo hoo. Where's Freya?.. |

I'm more than happy to keep trying to slap you out of it Connor!..

Just wake up MT? The weekend's been going for quite a while now......

Hello, darling!!! Freya just thought she'd peek at the last page only, since the 10 pages of posts for today alone was overwhelming, and look, here you are yelling at me in magenta!.
Today is my birthday. People are cancelling on my dinner party left and right. I'm down from 13 to 8, but only 3 of those 8 (plus me) have actually confirmed recently, so who knows - it may be down to a 4-top. So I kind of hate everyone right now. Although I'm getting lots of love on FB. You know, the kind that doesn't involve leaving your house.. Other than that I'm great... |
|
FREYA!! Happy blurfday! Sorry your friends are cancelling on you. They suck. For the record, I asked where you were last night..
So see? You are loved here!.. |
|
Happy birthday Freya! I'm sure your birthday dinner will be even better without the no shows!!! Have a good time...

Thanks, Jasmine! Last night I had a banquet thing I had to attend for Law Review. After that I think I just puttered around the house until I could pass out - oh wait, I stopped at the store and then cooked some stuff to eat for the next couple days. And some dishes, laundry, etc. Then passing out - no sitting and interneting...

Good morning Lovelies. I am setting this up at 9:10pm my time because I know it's already Saturday for a lot of you. I am headed for bed soon, but I am setting the coffee maker (Peets Sumatra) for 3am my time which means it will be ready for you early risers..
I'll join you after I wake up. Save a cup for me... |
