Today I am starting 1 month of Medifast. I have gained 30 lbs since graduating from law school in 2007. I had a baby 6 months ago, nursed for the past 5 months, got down to my pre-baby weight, and now I am seeing the weight start to creep up again.
This past weekend, I saw some photos of me at the zoo with my family. I had no idea how thick and tank-like I had become. I have gone from this (I am on the far left):
to this (I am in the orange sweater, with my back to the camera):
It is time for change.
I have done Weight Watchers in the past with varied success. Right now, between working a full-time job and caring for my family, I was looking for something that required less thinking.
A friend of mine is a coach for/sell Medifast, and she and her family have seen results. I am going to give this diet a try, and hopefully, I can jumpstart my weight loss.
So far, I have had three Medifast meals, a tablespoon of peanut butter, a piece of gum, 2 cups of coffee, and 3 large glasses of water. I am starving, my head is hurting, and I am having a difficult time concentrating.
How will I make it through this day? And be productive?
