Medifast diet

Anyone know anything about the Medifast diet? My BIL had a coworker who was on it for three months and he said she lost about 35 lbs… my sister wants to try it…I dont think 35 lbs in three months is very realistic…opinions? feedback.. anyone tried it before?

Re: Medifast diet

I have heard about it too but it would never work for me. I hate food that comes from mail. I would rather make these packages myself. Its just portion control.

Re: Medifast diet

anyone tried it?

Re: Medifast diet

As soon as you eat real food you gain..

Re: Medifast diet

looked it up and it seems like you have to phase back slowly into eating other stuff and just cuz teh weight is lost does not mean that ppl go back to the old eating habits which led them to medifast to begin with.

found an interesting blog. results are nothing short of amazing

Re: Medifast diet

^Wow that's really amazing! He looks like a whole new person!

Re: Medifast diet

35 lbs in 3 months means about 3lb/week, which is bad! It shouldnt exceed 1lb/week.

Re: Medifast diet

or half a new person? :D
and not just in size but in age as well

honestly speaking if the old him and new him were hanging together, I would think they are father and son

Re: Medifast diet

yeahhh you’re so right… it really is miraculous…

I was just googling and found that it’s not just one unique case… they have other such success stories on the Medifast official website

Especially the people who lost 50-100+ lbs… all on a diet… wowww

Re: Medifast diet

My sister's been on this diet for about 4 weeks now and already lost 11 lbs.

Re: Medifast diet

could you post back in a few months and let us know if she's kept it off and how?

Wow! And how is she feeling in terms of energy and general well-being?

Could you share some highlights of this program Riya? Thanks. I know we can go to the website, but some personal how to dos and testimonials please.

Re: Medifast diet

Sounds quite apealing.
Is it halal ?

Re: Medifast diet

WEll its like those other programs where you could order meals and basically it teaches you to eat right. My sister however only used the shakes, and those worked as meal replacements for her. In the morning she had one shake usually between 7 and 8 am... then a light lunch around 11 am compromising mostly of raw greens and a yogurt... sometimes chicken breast...snacks were unsalted lowfat saltines.... fresh fruit around 2 pm.... in the afternoon she had a regular khaana... we're talking biryaanis and all that greasy stuff.... she didnt hold back on that.... dinner was the shake... and an hour after dinner she would just drink milk and sleep.

Ill update back in a couple months.

Re: Medifast diet

So basically, it’s one regular meal and others are replaced by their stuff such as shakes. Doesn’t sound too hard :hmmm:

Re: Medifast diet

you can do that with slimfast too...
and they have an online tracker which is really helpful

Re: Medifast diet

i was on a similar diet and lost 8kg in 5 weeks... and ive been able to keep the weight off. But you really just need to control your portions.. and change your eating habits. That's all :)

Hi,

I'm new but stumbled across this post.

I'm interested to know if people found Medifast useful.
