You know how I said that last week was hard? Well, staying on plan this past week was even more of a challenge… I binged a couple of times and felt awful afterwards. Both physically and mentally. There was no emotional trigger… not that I can think of anyway. The food was just there, in front […]

Taking it off | Week 2
“Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle…” – Martin Luther King, Jr. I’d love to say that my second week on the Medifast plan was easier than the first, but it was harder, actually.
