I'm currently 270lbs im 26 and would like to lose about 100lbs. I saw on another websites message board someone talking about the medifast program. He said you drink a shake every 3 hours maximum of 5 a day. And do this until you reach your desired weight. can anyone give some feed back on this?

Mike,

That would be a very short and simple explination. Depending on the plan you pick, full fast or 5 + 1, you eat every 2.5 - 3 hours. There are more than just shakes avilable, there are soups, chili, bars, hot and cold drinks, oatmeal, pudding... you can have any combination with the exception of only 1 bar a day. I would sujest signing up for a health advisor from this sight to go over the program in detail with you and help you decide what is best for you. The program works, you can read about any of the other topic and find success stories. It is a very simple program and it works. I'm sure other will be along to offer more advise as well. Get informed and get thin!

Hi Mike,
Medifast is a great plan!! When you order you recieve a booklet which sets things out for you. Plus, find a health advisor who will help you get started and offer suggestions to help you be successful. The H.A. will also answer your questions and make sure you don't fall into pitfalls. Your success is their success. Please contact someone before you order so that you will get started on the right program. You will need the Medifast 70's for the shakes and depending upon any medical conditions other adjustments may be made. You are very wise to part with the weight now before you may have weight related medical problems.
Good luck and we'll be watching for you
