Medifast Diet Review: My Personal Medifast Review Diet

I was an excessively overweight person, weighing almost 190 pounds at 5'2". I am a professional and also a mother of one and had always been saddled with a weight problem.

My profession demanded that I work odd hours and the dual responsibility of work and home ensured that I had no time for exercise. I ate at odd hours and high carbohydrate foods were my staple diet. To add to my woes, I gained tremendous weight during my pregnancy which made me feel more huge, tired and depressed. I tried all the available diet programs but to no avail.

I found that my energy levels were hitting an all time low and I just wanted to sleep all the time and not do a thing. I could not shop at regular stores as they did not have my size and the very thought of shopping at a special store depressed me further.

It was during that time I came across Medifast, in fact my physician recommended it to me. I was skeptical at first but tried it nevertheless and I have to admit my life has not been the same any more.

The basic aspect that attracted me was the fact that you don't have to starve but have to eat correct. This appealed to me as I just cannot go without food and with the Medifast program; I found out that I was never hungry. I chose the 5 and 1 Diet plan in Medifast, which consisted of 5 supplement meals and 1 lean meal consisting of leans and greens. I was amazed by the sheer variety of supplements they provided with the diet plan and also the recipes and combinations for the single lean meal. Their meals are easy to prepare and can be prepared at both your home and at the office for all you need is water to prepare it. The shakes and oatmeal are an all time favorite, so are their soups and chilli.

Although the food is tasty and fills your stomach, you have to be strong and constant in your attitude. There will be times when you want to binge or your colleagues and friends may invite you for a lunch but you will have to say no and you have to be strong and committed enough to do so. The road to losing weight was not easy but it was possible and today I feel very happy as I have lost almost 60 lbs and am fit and looking forward to living life totally with my family.
