Pros: Quick, motivating weight loss Cons: rough first few days, bad breath, missing old crutch...food.
Summary: I've tried everything out there. I needed a blueprint, something to follow step-by-step, I needed someone to e-mail/call with questions, concerns and suggestions. I got all of that with Medifast and its subsidiary Take Shape for Life. I did the ...

Pros: Easy to follow, No cravings, "Idiot Proof!" Cons: Restrictive, no fruit allowed until weight loss goal is met.
Summary: I have never succeeded with sticking to a diet, with the exception of a very low fat diet that I lost 30 lb. on about 20 years ago. When I started Medifast a week ago I was at an all time high, 183 lb., 5'6". When I was 9 months ...

Pros: Easy to prepare meals, relatively affordable, long term approach, medically endorsed, and it works. Cons: First 3 days are sometimes challenging, some of the meals do not taste very good.
Summary: In writing this review, I need to first provide a disclaimer. I am a client, a success story and now I'm a health coach for Take Shape for Life and Medifast. However, the fact that I have had great success on the program, and have decided to coach others ...

Pros: NONE Cons: MONEY HUNGRY IDIOTS THAT REFUSE TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR ERRORS THEY CAUSE!
Summary: I went on to the medifast website and decided to try the program. I placed an order for a 2 week supply. After entering my credit card info and hitting submit, a screen came up that said INTERNAL SEVER ERROR and had an option to return to home ...

Pros: Never felt hungry. Very simple meals. Free Health Coach! Cons: Cost (but that was fixed with coupon codes).
Summary: Medifast is by far the best weight loss program I’ve ever tried! I love it, and although I’ve bumped myself out of ketosis several time due to a birthday party, family reunion, and a concert, I’ve still lost ...

Pros: Works well and quickly. Cons: Oatmeal is very hard for me to eat
Summary: I purchased the 2 week pre-packaged Medifast program since I didn't know what I was going to like or dislike. I just wanted to lose 10-15 pounds and this is an easy way to lose those last few pounds. I have done programs like this before so I ...

Pros: You will lose weight Cons: Ridiculously expensive."Food" is disgusting.Drinks taste like aspartime with water and food coloring added.
Summary: This plan is ridiculous! It's just a bunch of liquid, freeze-dried, processed food. Of course you will lose weight because it's low calorie. All of the hype about soy protein and each (liquid) meal being "complete" is just another sales pitch ...

Pros: None. Cons: Food tastes awful Portions are too small smells old no flavor no salt Tastes like raw, dried straw
Summary: Talking about losing weight, regarding the program "Take Shape For Life" I just want to express my dissatisfaction, my disappointment and frustration. I ordered the product for just one week since I needed to lose only a few pounds. When I ...

Pros: Good food Easy to do Not hungry WORKS! Cons: None
Summary: When I started the program I was 305 lbs. I cut out most sugars, slowed down on the carbs, and I still was not losing weight. My sister lost a bunch of weight (and is not even recognizable anymore!) and has kept it off after she left the program. My mom ...

Pros: No wiggle room that can lead to failure. WORKS. Satisfies. Cons: Very little actual food, which may be a problem for some.
Summary: I would like to start with an explanation of the prefix "medi"(the reviewer below seemed confused by it) which is simply the first few letters of the word "medical". Medical, because the supplements in this program meet nutritional standards at a ...

Pros: Easy to follow Cons: Weight loss is slow
Summary: I have just finished my second week on medifast and weighed in this morning. I started at 190, after one week on the 5+1 plan was at 187.7, and after a week on the 'complete' plan have dropped to 184.9. That is just 5 pounds in two weeks. Sigh... ...

Pros: Portable & convenient. Very few cravings after the first month. Cons: Expensive. Shipping sometimes took 4 days, sometimes 20.
Summary: After many failed attempts at dieting and combos of diet and exercise I decided to go with guerilla tactics and put myself on a meal replacement diet plan. This definitely takes all the guesswork and most of the pre-planning out of losing weight which ...

Pros: Effective if you stick with it, tastes great! Cons: Very strict, hard for those with big appetites and who eat large portions of food
Summary: Weight loss is very complicated. It isn't as easy as just saying "I want to lose weight" and deciding what diet to go on. A person who is 50+ pounds overweight obviously has a lifestyle that supports that weight, their lifestyle is what needs changing, ...
