I will be honest with you, here. The food is very expensive. Also, some of the food is very bad tasting (such as the oatmeal). However, customer service is excellent. And more importantly, this diet DOES WORK. I have tried many, many, many diets and probably spent over a million dollars in my lifetime trying to lose weight. This diet worked for me when countless others failed for me (such as weight watchers, nutrisystem, etc). And you really are NOT hungry after the first 3 days... so much so, that I even "forget" to eat my mini meal. Really, no joke, I forget to eat. If you don't have the money for medifast, you can purchase a book called Dr. Anderson's Habits of Good Health. This book uses the theory behind Medifast, eating every 2 to 3 hours, but teaches you how to do it "with your own food". I've done it and it works. It takes more thought and planning than simply purchasing the medifast meals, but it also works just the same. I hope this helps. Lisa

The diet works for me
November 28, 2013

The diet works for me. Food are expensive and NOT delicious at all. I usually bought the on-the-go as i was too busy to cook. High in sugar that got me easily cranked up and felt hungry after few hours. Other diet bars i got from Walgreens worked better for me in terms of losing weight, handling hunger for long hours, more delicious, and got me in better mood, also more friendly for my pocket :p i will stop using medifast after this month and switch to other brand.
