hello everyone,

i just ordered my medifast products this morning. I guess I should be receiving my stuff by tuesday. i am way excited to start the program. i just hope that I do it right and get the amazing results i see alot of people on this forum have had. i have tried every diet out there...i guess this is my last try. i hope i will be successful. i want to lose about 80 - 90 pounds. anyway i just wanted to introduce myself to everyone...and hopefully i will be posting some more once i get started on the diet.

btw..stupid question...do u need a blender to make the shakes?? i dont have one...i guess i may have to invest in one.

thanx
saira

Hi,

I just started the program Monday and it's going great so far. No, you don't need a blender. You will receive a shaker cup with your first order and all you need to do is pour in water and the shake mix and shake it up. You can add ice if you'd like.

There are other ways to prepare the shakes that use a blender. I might try them as time goes on but for now, they taste fine the low tech way.

Good Luck!

Welcome to the forum AND to Medifast, Saira. You have a beautiful name!

Run, don't walk, to Wal-Mart and get you a blender. While the shakes are great right out of the shaker jar, they are wonderful in the blender with a couple of packets of sweetner and around 6-7 ice cubes--so think and icy! And we have got to talk one day about Davinci Sugar Free syrups--YUM!

Everyone is different, though, Saira. You'll settle into fixing them the way YOU like them best.

The best of luck to you, and keep in touch!

Definitely go to Wal-Mart and get a hand blender, the kind you just stick in the glass and turn on. I use ice cold water and then put my shake in the freezer for 15 minutes. It is really good this way - taste like Blue bell Fudge Cycles. i can'e stand to drink it if i just shake it up in the shaker cup.

Good Luck

Saira.. (wonderful name by the way, how do you pronounce it?)

Welcome to our group. I noticed a few catch phrases in your post that raised an eyebrow…

“I guess”
“I just hope”
“I have tried”
“I guess”
“I hope”
“And hopefully”
