Does Medifast Work?

(continuing Barbara's Medifast review...)

I found tons and tons of blog posts and forum comments all over the web talking about how well the Medifast diet works. Here is a small sample of what people are saying:

 

 

 

I started Medifast a few weeks ago and currently down 15lbs! Clothing fits better and I feel great. I think this is a GREAT diet. I highly recommend trying it. – Kathy

Just completed 5 weeks, down 18 lbs., 40 more to go. I haven't felt this good in years. I'm in my early 50s, menopausal (natural roadblock for women losing weight), and the weight is just melting off of me. I've tried almost every other diet there is, with Phentermine being the only thing that gave me similar results 12 yrs ago (but I hated the side effects and gained back all).– Deester

The quick weight loss is a morale booster to keep on going. – Nancy

I lost 40 pounds on Medifast and kept it off for the last year. It is hands down the best diet I’ve ever been on, and the only one I was able to stick to. I failed miserably on Atkins and South Beach (too restrictive), Weight Watchers (too many choices, too complicated), NutriSystem (food was gross), Jenny Craig (ditto), and an assortment of others (Blood type, SugarBusters, Caveman, you name it). – Liz

Hello, I just ordered Medifast this morning and will receive it sometime next week. I'm extremely stoked to get started considering all of the positive testimonials I've heard from just about everyone! – Joy

Medifast is a life changer! I have successfully lost 45 lbs and am on my way to lose another 40. My wife has lost 8. It was recommended by our doctor. – Wilbert Gilber

Weight Loss

Liz 45 from TN. I Lost 54 pounds on this system and it does work. I have more to go. This is the only plan I know that works well. I have kept off most 44 pounds in 6 months and I am going back on the plan. I had to get off plan because of a side affect from the flu shot for 2 months now I am back on it. I am excited to see the new me. I do look very different than before and some people do not know it's me after the weight lost. I do feel better thinner and have more movement. Now I am going to shock them even more when I lose the rest!!!

Hi I was reading your comments on this sight.

FOOD TASTE

The bars, shakes, puddings and cappucino are great. I love the shakes in the blender with ice (kinda like a milkeshake), the peanut crunch bars and carmel crunch are the bomb. But, i do like all of them except the fruit and nut and the lemon, not so much.

The oatmeal is not very tasty and the cream of brocolli soup (but then all of it can't be great!) for the most part it is really a good diet and i don't get hungry and i love to eat.

** I have been on it for 4 WEEKS and HAVE LOST 20lbs. **

You have to be very careful about your lean and green meal because I did not realize that some vegs other than the general ones like peas, carrots, beets, corn potatoes that we know have lots of carbs.

But, a lot of the greene ones like brocolli, cauliflower, cabbage etc. still have a considerable amount of carbs in them. But, as you venture into the diet you will learn as i did what not to eat to keep your carbs low enough to stay in the fat burning state.

Hope you enjoy and lose all the weight you want to lose. have a bless day!

Write me anytime (NANNY4EVER123 [@] YAHOO [dot] COM), I always like to make new friends

Hi Susan

Hello Susan,

you can find answers to common questions (including pricing) here.

If you want to get the real scoop on everything Medifast, I would suggest you register with MyMedifast (free). You will find an enormous amount of information (forums, chat rooms, dietitians, etc) on MyMedifast.

Medifast shakes have a rather pleasant taste and come in different flavors, so it is likely you will find some that you like.

Do they have the rich texture that milkshakes have? Not really, because they are mixed with water, not milk.

The bars, the puddings and the breakfast foods (oatmeal, scrambled eggs) are good. Some people are not particularly excited with the oatmeal, but they find it OK.

If you join MyMedifast, you can find how people mix and match the various supplements to make their Medifast experience even more enjoyable.
