Welcome Jessica! I sent you a friend request. You are going to love this program and it will hopefully change your life if you are committed to it. Here is a website that the MF center gave me when I signed up and it has been incredibly helpful for the lean and green portions. It has changed my life by way of changing all of my eating habits, exercising and overall health. Good luck to you and I look forward to watching your progress.

I love this website too! The meat lasagna is my favorite. I also made the cabbage tomato beef soup from this website last weekend and it was good too:

Hi, Julie. Welcome to MFP! This is a great start for your weight loss journey so congrats to you for taking that step! Feel free to send me a friend request because I am on Medifast and love the program. There are several of us on here so watch this group for other members. If you want to do the program on your own and not through a center, below is a link to their website and you want to review the Quick Start Guide to get the guidlines of the program and then order your food online. I am not sure about how to find a coach because I go to the centers and use those coaches so maybe someone else can answer that for you. Medifast can work for you and we are always here to encourage and answer any questions.

Good luck.

Thnak you for the welcome, tgibbons. I sent a friend request. I dont live near a center so I would have to do it on my own. I am excited to start. Just waiting for the official OK from my MD to start.
