Defragged

I've created a baseline meal plan for each day, and I'm going to pre-package my 5 Medifast meals into a single quart-size Ziploc storage bag. I generally carry a small purse while traveling but this time I am taking a larger tote bag style purse that will easily accommodate everything including a water bottle, spoon and shaker jar.

I've ordered my Medifast food ahead of time and will be baking a large amount of Medifast muffins, cookies, and crackers this week. I'll also be re-packaging several pouches of the Medifast soy crisps into snack size Ziploc bags so that they are in clear baggies in case airport security finds them too suspicious.

My plan is to stay on the 5 and 1 plan as close as possible. Each morning I'll grab one pre-packaged bag of Medifast food and be off to do whatever I'm doing that day. If I cannot stay on the 5 and 1 plan because it isn't going to be convenient, I'll try the 4 and 2 plan which consists of 4 Medifast food meals and 2 Lean and Green meals.

I have no intentions whatsoever in going off the plan while I'm in Vegas. The hardest part may be trying to get in all my water, but we'll see how that goes as well. I'll be doing my best to stay focused and on plan. Getting in my walking will not be a problem. If you have ever been to Vegas, you know that lots of walking is just part of the trip.

Of course when I return, I'll let you know how my first travel experience while on Medifast went over the entire trip. My biggest hope is that I won't gain any weight. In fact, as long as I stay on plan I should actually continue to lose weight especially with all that walking. Oh boy, a foot massage sounds really great already. I can't wait!
