That's a good question. I'm not sure what is the right answer. I'll do some investigation and get back to you if I find an good answer. You should email the people at Medifast as they probably could assist you..

Good for you!.

That's great. I had a green smoothie too, so you weren't alone!.

Big Hugs..

Xoxo..

Unfortunately, I gave in recently ... but I paid for it...GI issues all night..

Good lesson......

It feels so good to make a good choice for the health of it...

Excellent! Must feel wonderful. Down with the sugar blues!..

Greeeeeeeeeeat job!!!!!!!.

You know, it really gets on my nerves when people keep proposing me something to eat.. like yesterday someone with this strange baked dessert said: Oh have one.... I said no thank you... they say COME ON It's JUST ONE!! at that point I start getting pissed - i'm not on a diet, I just don't consume such cr*p!!..

Donuts mean 1 thing to me...HEARTBURN, never fails, ever since I was a little kid. they LOOK like they would be good, but thank god I never really liked them! or muffins either! unless they are corn then I am a sucker..

Oh good for you. I know it's tough. I've been raw for almost 4 months and still struggle with temptations..

As yet, I haven't given in. A few weeks back I went to a Raw potluck my first one and was so excited. So I get there and I sit at a table with people who were new to Raw and almost everyone I met wasn't 100% and I'm cool with that. So then I go and try a bit of all the Medifast food that I assume is 100% raw and went with my mom and sister and we all got sick from it so something in there wasn't raw. I was kinda bummed and realized I just have to prepare everything myself from now on..

Yesterday went to a grand opening of my favourite grocery store. They opened one up near my house. Oh the temptations were difficult, they were handing out cookies, cakes, cheese, etc. Now none of that got to me but watching them make personal pan pizza's in their new wood oven was tough and their breads looked good. I know once I tasted it I would be disappointed but it's overcoming what you see a lot of times and remembering the old tastes..

It's hard too because sometimes people get offended when you don't eat their food. Everyday you are going against the grain of society and what the ads on TV try to sell you...

That happens to a lot of people and acid reflux too and also a lot of people get a bad after taste. By law they must change their cooking oil every 30 days so they just keep putting the donuts (muffins too) into the fryer. The problem with that is that the oil goes rancid rapidly after it is in use. When they finally throw out the old rancid oil it smells so bad it's enough to gag you. If a person is going to eat that stuff the least they can do is make it fresh themselves. By the way some people re-use their frying oil at home and I have heard that might possibly cause stomach cancer...

Donuts are easy for me to turn down. Although quite oddly, they smell good, they do not taste good to me. Like sweet grease. And with my Medifast food allergies, I know how sick I would get if I took just one bite. Nope. Not for me...

I am so impressed I think I would of ate the donut. I would of had a hard time saying no to the person, and even a harder time saying no to the donut. But, I am still new to raw foods and green smoothies. But the good news is that I probably wouldn't have chase the guy down for another donut!..
