I’m down another 1.4 pounds for a total of 44.4 pounds since starting Medifast on Jan 6th, 2010.
I’m really surprised because I was down so much last time when I felt a bit dehydrated and had my shoes off (for my body scan) that I was just hoping to be close. The fact I’m down more is great.
I attribute this recent rapid weight lose to my new exercise program. Since I started it, I’m averaging about 5 pounds a week vs. about 2.5 pounds the previous couple of weeks.
I promise I will write about it this weekend.
Eating one “regular” meal a day is a big reason why the Medifast program is easy for me to follow. I’ve used a bit of variety in my choices. One of the things that has surprised me is how much I’ve enjoyed some of the meatless options.
My favorite is 2 Boca Burgers Original cooked on a skillet with a tiny bit of pam spray. By the time I’ve added my hot sauce, my mouth is watering. Although it doesn’t taste like a “regular” hamburger, it has its own delicious taste and when I can get them at Von’s for $3 for 2 meals, its a pretty good deal.
I’ve also had cottage cheese a couple of times. 12 oz of cottage cheese is quite a bit and is very filling. Sometimes, I’ll make scrambled eggs with 2 cups!!! of EggBeaters, some mushrooms, tomatoes and squash. It’s delish and VERY FILLING!
