REVIEW OF Medifast
The Medifast plan provides you with the following: quick start book, recipe downloads a network of associated physicians and a message board to connect with others on the program. Consumers order meals in two or four-week packages, choosing their mini-meals from a selection of 18 items and are encouraged to track their progress using sheets available for download on the Medifast website. Medifast uses the tried and true portion control approach to dieting by providing controlled portions of pre-approved foods. The plan is based on the common nutritional axiom of eating more frequent, smaller meals to keep hunger from raging out of control. This is approach is commonly used in many weight loss plans; it should in no way be viewed as being innovative or a new break through in dieting technology. Medifast offers a small variety of meal type items, which we have listed below for your convenience.
- 1. Shakes
- 2. Bars
- 3. Oatmeal
- 4. Soup
- 5. Pudding
- 6. Crisps/Chips
- 7. Drinks, such as iced tea, Chai latte and others
Although Medifast meals come in a variety of flavors, some may find the usual selections monotonous after a few days and be tempted to look elsewhere to excite their tastebuds. Additionally, dieters who are accustomed to a fairly active lifestyle may find their energy levels dropping as a result of abrupt calorie restriction. Also, Medifast relies on ketosis for weight loss, and some may experience its unpleasant side effects; such as headache, dizziness, extreme weakness, diarrhea and nausea. In addition, the “meals” sold by Medifast contain the dreaded partially hydrogenated vegetable oil and does not contain any fruit. Medifast does not utilize any forms of holistic supplementation, such as herbally based appetite suppressants or metabolism boosters such as Hoodia & Advantra-Z®, both of which have helped many people achieve their weight loss objectives. In our experience, holistic supplementation can be a very valuable tool, which can increase the rate of weight loss in many dieters. It is unfortunate, that this very valuable weight loss weapon is not use in the Medifast arsenal.
