We accomplished a thorough Medifast Review and found that Medifast is a Weight Loss Plan that has been successful for over 25 years. A safe and effective Weight Loss Plan, developed by physicians, Medifast is highly recommended and used by more than a million people to date. We agree with studies conducted by Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the American Diabetes Association that this is an easy to follow plan to help you burn fat, lose weight, and keep it off for good.
This is a Weight Loss Plan for people who want to lose 20 lbs. or more through a balanced diet of carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Our Medifast Review outlines a program that is based on 800 – 1,000 calories per day. With this in mind, dieters can expect a weight loss of 2-5 lbs, per week. We like the fact that the Medifast Weight Loss Plan is a pre-packaged “5 to 1” meal program, delivered to your door, and consisting of 5 regular Medifast meals and 1 “Lean and Green” (real meal). You don’t have to worry about counting calories with Medifast; they do it for you. The “1" Lean and Green meal consists of a lean protein (meat choice) with a salad and vegetable of your liking. The basis of Medifast is to eat more frequently, about every 2-3 hours, which will rev up your metabolism and satisfy your appetite.
3 Stages
This Medifast Review provides a brief outline of the Medifast Weight Loss Plan, which is divided into three stages – Transition, Maintenance, and Exercise. The transition phase does not begin until after you achieve you weight loss goal. At this time, you may gradually add fruit, low-fat dairy, whole grains, and higher carbohydrate vegetables into your Weight Loss Plan. We would like to emphasize in our Medifast Review that maintenance may well be the most important aspect of Medifast, which is to establish healthy eating habits. As in other diets, an active lifestyle is necessary, as well as an understanding of the proper balance between calorie intake and metabolism.
Another feature in our Medifast Review includes the benefits of exercise, which can be accomplished through a 12-week walking program offered by Medifast. We all know that exercise will reduce stress and blood pressure, increase energy, and encourage changes or modifications to an otherwise sedentary lifestyle.
Finally...
We can conclude, therefore, in our Medifast Review, that this is a convenient and relatively simple Weight Loss Plan. There is no guesswork involved in their Weight Loss Plan, as meals are pre-planned, and they count the calories for you For an affordable $275 a month, you’ll receive all your meals, program guides, meal plans, product and nutrition information, recipes, as well as online support from registered dieticians and nutritionists. The program is also available in Spanish, if desired.
Since the Medifast diet is extremely flexible, it is ideal for seniors (over 70), men, women, teens, and diabetics. You’ll find plenty of variety in over 60 meal choices, as well as meatless meal choices for vegetarians. We feel confident that this is a worthwhile program and one that will help you meet your weight loss goal.
