Hi there... started Medifast for my first time today. After reading all of the posts here, I decided to try Medifast as opposed to Nutrisystem. Ive got to say, so far I am struggling and doubting the decision. I have so far eaten 6 bites of the Vanilla Berry Oatmeal (which was bearable.... but I really dont like oatmeal to begin with), the dutch chocolate shake (has a TERRIBLE aftertase that I could only drink 3 big drinks while holding my nose), 2 bites of the minestroni soup (again, didnt taste good, and the vegetables were too hard to even chew), and a bite of the chocolate mint bar (which was terrible). Now I know diet food will not taste as good as regular food, and I am trying to be optimistic... but as things are, I cant see myself lasting very long. I have only eaten a few bites of food all day. I need some serious tips and advice for making this food bearable. I have still yet to try:
Vanilla and Strawberry Shakes
Carmel Nut and Chocolate Divine Bars
Chili, chicken noodle, cream of chicken, and cream of broccoli soups.
Any help, tips, advice, or motivation will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
PS- I have 30 pounds that I need to lose.
