Average Medifast Weight Loss - How Much Weight Will I Lose on the Medifast Diet?

The simple truth is that Medifast has some distinct advantages over other diets, but still requires that you follow the program, and commit yourself to the weight loss process. Let's examine this and other Medifast diet questions below! Read on..:-)

How Easy it it To Lose Weight on the Medifast Diet?

I may be biased...but I'm going to say EASIER than most other diets that are out there! Why? Because it is deceptively low in calories relative to the amount of food (and filling) you will feel..:-) You are going to be eating 6 times a day on Medifast, which gives you a constant fill of food, and the bars, shakes, meals and otherwise are SO scientifically formulated to be filling, that you simply do NOT go hungry at all.

How Fast Will I lose Weight on Medifast?

You should see INSTANT results within the first 3 to 5 days...and then continuous improvement from there. Remember, most diets will give you an immediate weight loss kick start, mostly as your body sheds accumulated fluid. This is NOT real weight loss, even though it may tip the scales in your favor.

What you REALLY want is FAT burning success....and you SHOULD see this on Medifast just as quick! (while other popular fad diets will just have you losing water weight alone) One of the most important component of the Medifast diet program is that it provides you with the TOOLS to lose weight forever....not just a fast fix of a fluid flush!  ( which is very common in lots of programs that offer lots of weight....in a few short days!)

Now if you are like most folks who are unhappy with their size, you are EAGER to start changing your life for the better, but are simply overwhelmed by the amount of choices you have to lose weight. I know...I've been there, and often picking the right diet is FAR harder than losing the weight once you do! With that in mind, let's answer a few common questions we get often about the Medifast diet. Read on..:-)

Medifast Meals: How Many of them Will I Eat Per Day?

If you are like most of us, you'll eat 5. Remember, the 5 and 1 program requires that you have 5 meal replacement options, and 1 lean and green selection per day.

What is the Lean and Green Selection?

Good question! The lean and green is going to be 7 ounces of lean protein like chicken, fish or beef and as many green vegetables as you can stomach! (no pun intended..:-) This is a meal that you will be self preparing, so keep this in mind as well. (i.e. - this is the one meal per day that is NOT provided for you!)

Is Medifast Fattening? How Many Calories a Day is the Diet?

Depending on your selection, you should expect to be eating about 1000-1200 calories per day. These are very filling calories though, and if you are anything like ME, you won't be feeling like you are dieting at all! (plus you will be having a total of 6 meals per day - which keeps your hunger well satisfied as well!)
