    Hi everyone,
    I am starting medifast and wondering how to incorporate it into my fitness pal? How do you work it so MFP helps you in losing weight. So curious. I want to do medifast and MFP together. RL, I want to join you on your journey of losing 100lbs in 1 year. We just have to decide that we are ALL IN or ALL OUT. I dont think there is middle ground, especially at first.

    MFP is simply a way to record calories in and out. It is pretty simple - when our calories out exceed our calories in we lose weight. 1 pound requires about a 3000 calorie deficit.

    The problem with stuff like medifast for me is that I know I have to change the way I live and special food plans are not how I live. So I'm simply using MFP to help me make better choices in food selection and as making sure I eat less.

    MFP lets you set calorie goals based on your current weight and a desire to stay even, lose up to 2 pounds per week in 1/2 ld increments, or gain up to 2 lbs per week in 1/2 pound increments.

    I think the lower increments are there because of research indicating that smaller losses per week are more sustainable over the long run. There are studies that indicate otherwise too.

    I set my goals are 1.5 weight loss per week and then make sure to record what I am eating. If I go over today, well I just do. Also I am not trying to record every bit of ketchup or butter - I am aware of those amounts but I know if I try to capture it all I'll get frustrated and quit. So I set my goal at 1.5 per week and I am way happy with 1 lb per week.

    Lost 65 lbs that way last year on my way to losing 200.


    So you would simply record all of what you are eating of your medifast foods in MFP to record calories. If you are doing something really low in calories then MFP is going to warn you to eat more.

    Good luck! Or should I say welcome to the hard work of losing - there is no magic pill and there is no luck about it. Just eat less and more around more.

    I am in the same boat with all of you! I need to lose about 90lbs more but to really be in goal weight according to all the charts I would need to lose more like 110lbs. Even at my smallest with diet and running 5 miles a day I couldn't make it any lower so I would be very happy with the 90lbs!

    My goal is 107 gone. 102 pounds will take me officially out of the BMI obese range. I am now 72 pounds down.
