Frequently Asked Questions

What's the one fresh meal I prepare each day?

Your fresh meal is a lean protein with vegetables, giving you familiar, satisfying food daily. We provide meal ideas and recipes, or you can design your own within guidelines. This prevents the monotony of eating only meal replacements and provides food you enjoy.

Are Medifast meals actually nutritious or just low-calorie?

Medifast meals are complete nutritional profiles including protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They're designed by nutritionists, not just simple calorie restriction. Your body gets the nutrition it needs even while losing weight, which is why people maintain energy during the program.

Can I choose any Medifast meals or are some required?

You choose from dozens of options daily including shakes, bars, soups, snacks, and entrees. Our coaches help you find favorites within each category. Personal preference means you're more likely to stick with the program since you're eating things you actually enjoy.

What happens after I stop eating Medifast meals?

We provide maintenance coaching helping you transition to balanced regular meals while maintaining your results. The habits and knowledge from Medifast make the transition successful. Many clients maintain weight loss long-term with the skills they've developed.

Is the program safe for people with health conditions?

Medifast works well for most people, but we screen for conditions like diabetes or kidney issues where meal composition matters. Our coaches coordinate with your doctor if needed. Thousands of people with various health conditions succeed with Medifast when properly monitored.

How often will I weigh in and track progress?

Weekly weigh-ins provide accountability and motivation. We also track measurements and how you feel, not just the scale. Most people see noticeable results within 2-3 weeks, which keeps motivation high.

Can I do Medifast while eating out or traveling?

Absolutely. You bring Medifast meals with you or we suggest restaurant options for your fresh meal. Many travelers pack meal replacements, and restaurants easily accommodate preparing your one fresh meal. Flexibility is built into the program.
