Does anyone find that when you're on medifast you get terrible gas? I went off it for 10 days, and as soon as I got back on, the gas returned. I'm wondering if it's the spinach and eggplant I have for lunch, or the sugar alcohols in the bars. Anyone use Beano?

    Yep! I get the same thing. I went off for a week once and the gas went away and then it came back when I went back on Medifast.

    Maybe that is how medifast really works. It turns fat into gas.

    Some days I am, some days I'm not, so I'm not really sure what makes the difference. I do know I don't poop like I used to when I ate "real" food. I started adding Benefiber to my bottle of water in the morning. I used to get about 35-40 g of fiber every day, and now I get maybe 25 with Medifast.
