Hi everyone, My name is Nicki, I just started the medifast detox today and so far so good. Has anyone else done the detox? If so, did you lose a large number on the scale still after your first week on the actually Medifast meal replacements?

Hello,
What exactly is the Medifast Detox, I have never heard of that before?0 -
I signed up at a center and they recommend a detox before starting the diet.
Its a cleanse so your body has a clean slate to work on and its a week long.0 -
Whats the process?
I havent heard of it before. I just jumped right into it. Has worked great so far!
Welcome to the club and good luck on the journey!0 -
I have never heard of the Detox either. I might have to ask about it at my center. Welcome to Medifast! It is an awesome program. :drinker:0

Thanks guys!!
Heres the detox process:
Every day you take the MF detox & appetite suppression supplements plus fiber supplement (like Metamucil)
Days 1&2: Pre-cleanse days eat 3-4 servings fruit, 3-4 servings veggies, & 3-4 servings whole grains plus 2 qts Smart water
Days 3&4: Liquid cleanse days drink 2 qts Smart water plus 2 qts lemonade/maple syrup mixture
Days 5&6: Mini cleanse days eat 3-4 servings fruit, 3-4 servings veggies, 2 MF shakes, & 2 qts Smart water
Day 7 -- Graduation day eat 3-4 servings fruit, 3-4 servings veggies, 3-4 servings whole grains, & 2 MF shakes plus 2 qts Smart water
(FYI no bananas or grapefruit while on cleanse because they will go through you too fast if you know what I mean....)

Hmm, wonder if it actually does anything?
When I started Medifast, I didnt do anything special aside from drinking lots of water to keep the hunger away. But the first month or so, I was losing 10 lbs a week
Keep us updated on your results.0 -
I was wonder the same thing, does the detox help you lose weight? OR does it just clean up your system to get you ready for MF?0

I lost 9 pounds when I did it before starting Medifast. My girlfriend did it at the start of her journey & lost 12 pounds! My sister did it & lost 8 pounds. Most of what you lose is stored water weight from the midsection. It definitely cleans you out & gets you ready for doing a strict 5&1 on plan.0

I lost 13lbs :drinker:0 -

I lost all my weight on MF and never went through anything like this. I did it via a health coach and just followed the program as outlined. I lost 19 lbs in 2 weeks and 40 lbs in 8 weeks, and it kept falling off.0 -
I lost 70 lbs on medifast without going to a center or having a health coach. Not that I think there is anything wrong with either option. Medifast saved my life!
