Ok I have a few questions. I tried to go the the question thread but I couldn't post so here I am again.

How much excercise must you do...I just had foot surgery and can't do a whole lot
How much over weight do you have to be to start Medifast?
After I purchase Medifast, will I need to buy MORE foods at the store?

I think that all for now. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Don't know how long that link will stay. Maybe Unca will be by to fix it. It's a link to the Quick Start guide.

MF suggests NOT exercising the first 3 weeks or so to allow your body to adjust to the lower calorie level. Then start slowly and build up slowly.

Anyone can use MF. They have a program for everyone. Some do a full fast, but that needs to be monitored by a doctor.

The only foods you need to buy in addition to your Medigrub is your lean meat and veggies if you follow the 5 & 1 Plan (doesn't need to be monitored by a doc). That's 5 MF replacement meals and 1 Lean & Green. Read through the Quick Start. It'll help a lot.

Only admin can post to the FAQs section - I think. You're in the right place.

WELCOME!

Thank you sooo much. There was a lot of information there. I can't wait to show my husband and hopefully get this started.

Just-julie answered all your questions!

I would only add to her good advice by telling you that once you get your Medifast products you will get a QUICK START book with your first order. The most important thing you can do is read through it before you start the program. Page 5 answers all your questions about the lean and green - what they are and the portion size and weight of the foods allowed.

It is loaded with information that will help you succeed. The Medifast program only works if you follow the formula layed out in the book.

We are excited to have you join us Medifasters
