Where To Purchase Medifast

I've lost over a life changing amount of weight on Medifast so friends and coworkers seem to think that I am an expert on this diet and ask me all sorts of questions about it. One question I am asked a lot is where to buy the the products. I find that people sometimes mistake this program for slim fast. You can buy slim fast shakes or bars in some grocery stores, but these products are high in carbs and sugar.

Or, others mistake this plan for optifast, which requires physician supervision.

Currently, medifast isn't available in your local grocery store or super center, but it is readily available. I think this is actually a good thing because anyone who is interested in trying this program should really familiarize themselves with how it works and why it is designed the way it is. Simply picking up a case of shakes at a grocery store is cheating yourself out of all of the tools and resources available that could really enhance your weight loss.

And, there is much more to this plan than shakes and bars. There are over 70 food choices from which to choose. If you only consume a few items, you may quickly get bored.

Medifast was developed by (and is often recommended by) physicians, but by and large it is not a doctor supervised program. You do not need a prescription to buy the products on the popular five plus one plan, or on the women's, men's or diabetic programs.

Third party sites offer coupons and specials, but the company handles the food.  (You can see examples of these coupons at http://easiest-diet.com/)

Some people do order individual products piecemeal. I have friends who just order shakes or bars online and use them only as meal supplements to fill them up so that they will eat less throughout the day. This has been reasonably effective for them, but they are careful to eat balanced meals.

But, I knew then I was initially evaluating this plan that I needed to wholeheartedly commit to the program and go all in. I always order a monthly five plus one package of at least 145 meals. This way, I know I will have all of the supplies I need and my body will get everything it needs to function while it is losing weight. Also, this makes the cost per item cheaper.

I hope this article has answered the question of where to buy these products, but I hope that you will take the time to learn more about the different programs available. There are several different options that address many unique weight loss goals and health situations. There is usually something for everyone and many people find an attractive fit in only a few minutes.
