Does Medifast Really Work?

One of my favorite diets for people who really want to lose weight quickly is Medifast. Medifast is a diet that was created to help extremely obese people lose weight given a choice between losing weight or dying… for them Medifast was a godsend.

What I like about Medifast is that you don’t have to guess on what you should eat, you simply eat their pre-packaged meals in a variety of forms and flavors, and then eat a nice lean meal (known as the “lean and green” meal) of real food. With this meal you can eat pretty much anything that isn’t fried and coated in sugar. Things like lean chicken or beef and a nice salad should fit the bill, but if you’re a vegetarian or vegan you might be able to find something else to work with the program.

What I don’t love about it is that it can be really expensive, so if you do order Medifast make sure you use Medifast coupons on your order so you can save a little bit on your order at least. It doesn’t make it cheap, but every dollar helps these days right?

If you aren’t sure if you can find something that you will like on the plan there is a good amount of variety with things like shakes, snack bars, chili, soup, cheese puffs, even ice cream… along with dozens of other options so the odds are you should be able to find something thats right for you. You just need to make sure you don’t cheat and sneak cookies and brownies on the side right?

Medifast isn’t for everyone, its expensive and some people just aren’t going to stick to a diet with pre-packaged, not so great tasting food. If you’re serious about losing weight though you should definitely at least give it a look. I can tell you from personal experience that Medifast works because my aunt lost over 50 pounds on it and she is looking great thanks in large part to Medifast.
