Medifast For Wedding Day Weight Loss - Here's What Has Worked For Me

By Lindsey Price

I won't tell you my exact age, but I'll say that I am definitely over 30. I am also a mother and I work so I am very busy. I am going to be married to my soul mate in June. Although my fianc้ has loved me from the beginning and I am confident that he would love me at any size, I really wanted to take his breath away on our wedding day and I want him to be proud of me. I also want him to know without a doubt that I am the most appealing woman in his life.

I have always been slightly overweight but my weight has slowly crept up since I became a mother, worked harder, and got busier. Time crept up quickly and so did my weight. Over the years, I have tried almost every diet under the sun. However, once I became engaged, I got very serious about wanting to lose weight, become toned and to enjoy good health with my soon to be husband.

I began medifast in October of 2007. Since then, I've lost nearly 50 pounds and am only two dress sizes away from the size 4 wedding dress every one said I was absolutely crazy to buy. I bought that dress because I knew that it would motivate me to stick with the program so that I could fit into that beautiful, tiny dress by June.

I think that I was able to lose so much weight for a few reasons. First, medifasts' food is really good. You're allowed to eat six times per day so you don't really get hungry. And, the offerings are very carb and snack like. You can eat puddings, lattes and shakes without the slightest guilt. And, you can make these things even more enticing by adding sugar free syrups. Finally, I found a quick, convenient, portable and inexpensive work out program that has toned me very effectively and quickly. Once, my excess fat started disappearing, I knew that my new toned muscles could shine in my sleeveless dress.

I know people are going to be looking at my arms, legs and back in my small wedding dress. I am determined that they are going to like what they see. I am eternally grateful to medifast. I am actually looking forward to and no longer dreading seeing our wedding photos and video. My mother, who told me I was only wasting my time and money, is now on medifast herself.

Words Of Encouragement For A Woman Facing Infertility or Miscarriage On Mothers Day!

By Veronica Anusionwu

In a few days it will be mother's day here in the United Kingdom. It is a day when mothers all over the world are celebrated by their husband's and children.

If you are not yet a mother I know you may feel a little bit low in your spirit. I want you to know that God has not forgotten you. There are times in our lives that it may look like God has forgotten us and it in those times that we must remember bible promises like these ones and hold on tight to them:

God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you," Hebrews 13:15.

"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me. Isaiah 49:15-16.

God has promised that he will never leave you or forsake you even in the darkest hour of your life. He says to you, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. Isaiah 43:2.

These kinds of promise make me just dance and dance before the Lord. No storm is big enough to take anyone down who trust in Him.

I love God's word and I love worshipping God. These have been the keys that I have used to overcome so many challenges in my own personal life.

Toady, let me encourage you once again, the bible says, as a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him; psalm 103:13.

The Lord is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion. This means that God is sympathetic; he cares, and is full of kindness and consideration for you. God is truly concerned about you and will always love you.

You may have faced some delays in having a child but God has not denied you children.

There a story in the bible about a couple who had to wait for so many years to have a child. Let us visit their story today in the book of Luke chapter one of the bible. This is a good example of fruit bearing in old age.

Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist was the wife of a priest who lived in the hill country of Judea and served in the temple of God in Jerusalem.

Elizabeth experienced infertility and had to wait many years to have a child. Her experience is also reflective of the attitude people put on when delay appears to become a denial. Delays are frustrating and can easily make you look away from God.

People are quick to forget that the scriptures cannot be broken, delays are never denials. God has never failed before to rescue those who look up to him.

When the angel of the God appeared to Zechariah and said, "Do not be afraid Zechariah for your prayer is answered" His response was "How I can know this, I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in age," Luke 1:18.

From his response we can see clearly that even though this man of God was praying, in reality he did not expect his prayers to be answered. He had given up and accepted the childless situation in his marriage.

May be you have gone through the same route as this couple, and done all you know to do, without result I still want to encourage not to give up. God will still come through for you.

If you were to read carefully through Luke one you will see that the blessing which was promised this couple by way of John the Baptist was unique in the sense that Elizabeth's pregnancy was rightly timed by God.

It could not have been earlier; neither could it have been later because the child whom she bore was to be the forerunner of the Lord Jesus Christ. If he had been born at the time they desired, he would have been too old for the ministry he was called for and if he had come later, he would have been too young.

This should encourage you today to know that even though you may have experienced some delay in childbearing God still has good plans in mind for you.

If you experience delay in conception or any area of your life you need to understand also that some circumstances are for specific reasons and you will experience joy on the appointed day. God is meticulous about vision and that includes yours. You must know that your vision and its fulfillment are for an appointed time.

The bible says in Habakkuk 2:3 "The vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry." God does not lie. He has promised you this, "no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless, psalm 84:12.

Elizabeth's case shows how glory is "born" in the womb of barrenness. Who would have known that Elizabeth, and Zechariah, very old couple would one day be the parents of a child of Triumph.

So it is not what the situation says but what God says that matters. God says, "All things works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose", Romans 8:28.

Elizabeth and Zechariahs case was for the glory of God and their blessing had to be called by its proper name. John was the name given by the angel of God which means the gift of God'. The birth of John the Baptist was not the making of man; it was the Working of God.

I want to say to you today, wait for the Lord, do not faint, do not fear, your God will come and glorify you as a happy mother of children.

Many will say to you, you are too old to have a child. God says, "They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming, "The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him", Psalm 92:14-15.

Someone may say to you, oh it been so long you married, when are you having a child? God says, "None will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span. Exodus 23:26.

They say you are serving God in vain, God says, "You will be blessed more than any other people; none of your men or women will be childless, nor any of your livestock without young. The Lord will keep you free from every disease. Deuteronomy 7:14

On this mothers day spend the day in praise and thanksgiving to God. Pray for all the mothers in the world and wish them well.

Rejoice and celebrate with them. As you do this God will glorify his name in your life. I agree with you that by this time next year, you too, will be a happy mother of your own child. Praise the Lord!

Six Steps to the Right Size Bra

By Diane Palmer

Are you aware that 8 out of every 10 woman are wearing the wrong size bra?. But like most of us, we really don't know how to fit one properly, and there are so many makes and so little time to deal with this issue.

But, if you are wearing the right size bra, you can instantly look better, you can even look up to 10 pounds lighter, if its not pinching and snagging. You will stand more erect, and be a much happier person. So, stop carrying the world on your shoulders.... literally!, and get out that measuring tape, and find out your right size.

If you are totally aware of your bra, during your daily activities, then its time to rethink the size. Here is a quick guide to help you, so that you are armed with the right information when shopping.

1) For best results, have someone else measure you, to keep the measuring tape straight.

2) Take a snug measurement around your rib cage, under your bust and shoulder blades. Write this down, then add 5 inches. example: rib cage = 40" now add 5" = 45".

3) If you get an even size in step 2, then this is your band size. If you get an odd number in Step 2, then round it up one inch for your band size which would be 46" in our example. .

4) With bra on, and clothes off, take a loose measurement around the fullest part of your bust line. Example" 50"

5) To now determine cup size. Subtract band measurement from step 2, from bust measurement in step 4. Example: 50" bust less 45" band size = 5"

Below are the results, as you can see if you had a difference of just 1" then you would be a size A and so on...

6) Determine cup size: 0"/AA 1"/A 2"/B 3"/C 4"/D 5"/DD 6"/DDD & F 7"/G 8"/H 9"/I 10"/J

In the above example, the person would be a 46DD. .. as 5" difference = DD

This at least will give you an idea of what part of the store you should be in, or if ordering online, you have an accurate measurement. Shopping online for bras is also a good idea, as there are great online specialty bra stores that will carry up to size G, which can be very hard to find in a regular mall store. The mall stores tend to cater to the "average" woman, and that is why we tend to not get the right fitting bra, we will compromise to just get the job done!..

Free yourselves of the pinching and tugging, and get a good fitting bra, it should feel like you are not wearing a bra at all.
