Medifast Journal Day #12

Medifast Honey Mustard Pretzel Sticks

Today was a pretty good day.  I found out I can eat PIZZA!  Well, ok, not real pizza but there are Medifast Pizza Bites that if you try to imagine real hard actually taste somewhat kind of like cheese pizza.  Ok, after 12 days I’ll take what I can get.

I’m really liking the pretzel bites and snacks.  I miss the crunch of snacks and these fill that void nicely.  They also help me to get over my need for bread and they don’t taste bad at all.  My favorite so far is the Honey Mustard Pretzel Sticks.

My hunger stayed at bay for most of the day although I was pretty busy and didn’t have time to think much about eating.  I actually managed to make my afternoon interval go 3 hours instead of my normal 2.

Lean & Green was a turkey burger with some lettuce.  I added an egg and some turkey bacon as the burger was only 4 oz.  I wasn’t ravenous going into dinner and my night snack came late.  Perhaps my body is adjusting.  The weekend is coming up but we will be on the road so temptations shouldn’t be that great.

Medifast Journal Day #10

Today was an anomaly from the past 4 or 5 days.  I was hungry…all day long.  Even after my Medifast Meals I was still hungry.  Nothing seemed to satisfy.  I drank a bunch of water but it didn’t seem to help.  I did forget my vitamin this morning and I wonder if that had something to do with it.  I also started off with a cappuccino and I wonder if that kicked in some extra burning resulting in my hunger?  Not sure.

I’ve begun looking around for more Lean & Green meals online and have a bunch of recipes, forums and even videos of Lean & Green meals.  There is a ton of support for the Medifast Plan online.  I should also mention that Medifast offers a free personal support person with your purchase but I haven’t taken advantage of that yet.  I found a recipe for Turkey Taco Salad which I made and was quite happy with.  The wife and son had the crunchy taco shell which I skipped but the turkey in taco seasoning along with lettuce, peppers, salsa and a small dollop of light sour cream really made my day.

I got pretty tired fairly early this evening.  I’ve been going to bed about 11-12 pm and getting up at 7 but about 10:00 I hit a wall an will head to bed early.
