Judging from Medifast dieters' success stories, this calorie controlled form of dieting can result in blazingly fast weight loss; up to 20 pounds a month on Medifast's 5 & 1 Plan, for example.

In Medifast's own words: "The Medifast diet has been clinically proven to be safe and effective !"
Some Medifast dieters may even say that the Medifast Diet is as close as you can get to gastric bypass... without the knife! They consider it their 'last chance' diet, seeing it as an alternative to weight loss surgery.

Fortunately there are indeed many success stories on this plan. And according to the Medifast Official Site , for example, "Over 1,000,000 people have lost weight with Medifast ."

Medifast's 5&1 Plan is eating five Medifast meals per day, and one meal of your own, a 'lean and green' meal. If you are a busy person, this may be the diet for you, because there is very little counting and practically no planning - just grab 5 medifast meals, and for dinner you have your own meal consisting of a lean protein and vegetables.

That one daily Medifast meal is the only one you have to plan, and with food that simple, you couldn't ask for an easier way to eat! To make it even easier, you can go online and click on your chosen Medifast meals, and it will be delivered to your door.

You can purchase enough Medifast food for one week, or for a month. (Current special offer: Buy 4 weeks of food, get one FREE! Use code PROMO at checkout )
Important to know is that their foods are not perishable, so storage is easy, as is preparing the meals. You can even have it shipped for free if you buy a month at a time.
