How bad are they?

I've been on Medifast since January, lost a little over 60 pounds so far, on the 5-1 plan, with no falling off the wagon. I just received a new shipment of the Diabetic Bars (I'm not diabetic, just use those because supposedly less sugar and carbs). I use the bars when I'm at work 1-2 a day.

Has anyone notice they've reformulated the diabetic bars? They are much sweeter and less substantial, more like candy ...

Hi Folks,

So, I introduced myself a bit earlier (look for fit and fat health nut with bad habits seeks weight loss) and now I have a bit of a story.

<<sigh>>

Despite not believing that Medifast could work for me (and being proven wrong), I have lost even though I have cheated on several occasions. Yet, I consider myself dedicated to the program (how's that for a contradiction?). The thing is, I did several ...

AWWWWW! You are too sweet, Vicki!
No thunder stealing here. I have PLENTY to go around! :lol:

I know I did this on my own, but honestly...you guys are what keep me going every single day.
You guys are the THE BEST weight loss partners in crime one could possibly have! I LOVE kicking fat in the bootay with ya'll!

Well normally I dont consider getting on a scale fun, but today was a good day! I was really discouraged after not loosing last week, having to get rid of my dogs and having and emotionally hard week at work. I though i would have for sure gained a pound or 2 due to little cheats here and there. But to my suprise I was down 5 pounds this week!! Bringing me to 215 and ...

Just wondering. I usually don't use mouthwash, but I am trying out the new Listerine Whitening Mouthwash. My daughter uses it, and it works good for her. So I am using it too, but then I got to wondering if it is safe to use with Medifast?

It has alcohol 8%, and saccharin(sp?) and sucralose. Does anyone know if mouthwash is safe. I would hate to be thrown out of ketosis over something that stupid! ...

Finally Unca!! 50 pounds!!! From size 24/26 to a tight 16. (IT looks good though) My 14 year old daughter even started Medifast... (She weighed 177 when she started- now 172- she started on Monday)

Thank you guys for just being here.

OH Happy DAD's DAY!!!

Another 1 pound week for me and I am really getting aggravated but like my hubby told me, better to lose a pound than gain a pound.

Good luck to everyone!

i took a bar to a baseball game so that i wouldn't go too long between meals. i really looked for the first time at the nutritional value.... and was shocked.

i know the bars are higher in calories, so we can only have one.

but 12 grams of sugar and 21 carbs???

how do these things not knock us out of ketosis?

fiber or flax seed to the food for nutrician? Is there enough fiber in a day's worth of food to meet what we should have? I havent looked yet but thought I would ask :oops:
