Hi Jazzy.....You are allowed 5 Medifast supplements a day. Three of these must be shakes. The other two can be soup or an oatmeal or a supplement bar. If you are still hungry you can have an extra supplement. But makes sure that you have only one supplement bar per day. Fast soups and crackers are extra. I think you can have two of these a day. They don't count toward your days total.
A suggestion for mixing your shakes. I use 2 cups of water and ice instead of one. I put water in blender, put lid on blender and start it, remove lid and add shake powder to the water, then add ice if desired. Let it blend until it is frothy. Pour into huge glass and drink up. I think it is too thick with one cup of water. When you add an extra cup it dilutes it, but not too much. It also adds an additional cup of water to your days total. If you are a coffee drinker, mix a hot cocoa, swiss mocha, or dutch chocolate to two cups of hot coffee. Delicious. Be sure to mix this in the blender, also, adding the shake powder to the whirring coffee in the blender. Absolutely no lumps and it is out of this world. Hope this helps. Maggie
