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

Great job!!! Making it through the drive thru? Are you kidding me? That is awesome!! You can smell the Medifast food in the parking lot :) Keep up the good work Spidey....It is nice that your wife is so supportive and didn't want to sabbatoge you....That will be wonderful for your success..... Enjoy your accomplishment and pickles will be in your future.....along with smaller clothes, longer walks and healthier days :).

Kim..

Yay Spidey! Way to be strong!.

I love dill pickles, eat them in my tuna all the time..

Hugs! Patricia..

JTR... You're gonna do way more than that big.

Boy. You're a loser now and on your way down in life. LOL.

Good luck, I rooting for you man!.

Lucifer.

And when you can eat that crap again you'll just shit when you realize how little of the poison you can even ear ay one time...

Hey good for you! I know what you mean, my husband was starving and went through a White Castle drive thru and I also was fine. I was surprised on how it didn't bother me. YAY..

Way To Go!!!!! Isn't it the Greatest feeling to be able to be in control?!?!?!..

Congrats - I know that was hard to do. A friend of mine went thru that and drank some pickle juice to satisfy her craving when faced with that dilema. LOL. I remember at a group meeting one lady licked her husband's steak before giving it to him for she was craving it. The look on his face was priceless...

That was very brave of you, congrats !!! :)..

That was so sweet of you and then you were rewarded with a non scale victory. Way to Go..

So I'm like 4 days out of GBPS and my wife is driving me around ,.

Running.

Errands. I've got my 1 ltr bottle of crystal light decaf tea, the wind in my mohawk and life is good. I had eaten 1/4 cup of cottage cheese and 1/4 cup yogurt mixed together 2 hours earlier. What I had forgotten was that my wife still eats like a regular person!!! She was so busy taking care of me ,that she forgot to eat and it was around 3pm. I told her to pull into Mc donalds,but she said she didnt want to sabbatoge me. I said I had no hunger and was fine with it.

I took a double swig of tea and stared out the window thinking "I conquered McDonalds today"!!!..

You done good!.

That happens. Yesterday, my wife said she was making eggs and I was to have eggs as well. she said how many do you want. I yelled back...One! She came out with a plate piled high with scrambled eggs. She cooked a dozen of them. She took a small amount and put it in a sandwich and I was supposed to eat the rest.

I put 2 oz in a small cup and ate that. Her reply was, you dont like my eggs? I said they're good, but you know I cant eat all of them. She said oops. My son will cook at 9pm and the smell drives me batty and then he says, you want some? I say NO! He undestands. But againi, the smell drives me wild and I want it but when I say no, I dont really want any anymore.

Not in the mood. I wasnt a burger fanatic before. My kryptonite is Pasta. I did go to Olive Garden and Chilis but I stuck to my Medifast diet and felt good. The other night my son, his friends and I went to the movies.

I asked for a cup of gumbo. The waitress thought I was stuck up. Instead of a cup she brought a bowl. I only ate 1/4 of it and most of it was the broth. She asked if there was something wrong with the gumbo.

Surgery.

That got an Oh! While the hunger goes away, the mental wants are still there. But, they are fightable. When I go out, I always take a bottle of frozen water. In a short time it has melted, so I have ice water to drink. After my 30 days, I cant stand Crystal lite anymore. I prefer water now as something to drink.

Instructions and your diet...

Same thing happened to me! My wife drives trough Mcdonalds and I dont get anything. We went to have lunch at olive garden on sunday and she ate while I had a small piece of chicken. I struggle to ensure that my disassociation with foods do not affect her. At the beginning she felt as if she had to hide from me to eat. I dont want that, I need to be exposed to foods and be able to make the correct choices. I feel proud every time I do..

Keep up the great work, Stay Strong!..

When I first had the.

Surgery.

And my family would eat, I wanted to watch them eat! LOL I know strange, but I enjoyed it. I wasn't hungry and didn't want it, but I enjoyed watching them enjoy the food. LOL..

All I wanted was big dill pickles from the deli pickle barrel. I couldn't eat them, so I would cut off the end and sucked the juice out of it, then chewed it and spit it out. hubby called me a pickle sucker.i thought it was funny. tunafish..

Ok,,, every since this note was posted.... I have been craving pickles.. I get the moral of the story and that was great... but I've been wanting pickles.

Today.... I was in the cafeteria,, getting my slice of lean turkey deli meat,,, small slice of cheese... and yes you guessed it two dill pickle slices (small)....

I would like to have smelled them but due to a concussion a couple of years ago.. I've no sense of smell... (long story)....

But I ate them... they were my dessert and delicious dessert they were! So far no side effects. I promise I won't make a habit, but they will be an occasional treat for me. Don't need the hamburger,,, just the pickles..

S..

LOL I was just catchng up on some older posts and came across this "pickle" post! Very cute.......made me smile :-)..
