Anyone on MRC - Metabolic Research Center

Welcome to the MFP Community. I've never heard of the plan so I looked it up.

Honestly, it looks like a nice idea, except they want you to buy their products which appear to be very over-priced. You can buy many good protein powders at health food stores for less. If you want to take some of the supplements, check with your doctor first that the ingredients in those supplements are okay for you.

The company promotes things like losing 5 pounds in a week, which is not really healthy for most people unless morbidly obese. Try not to get too sucked in by the promises and keep your expectations realistic.

I think you can learn some new eating habits and gain some tools from any program, including this one. At the same time, I recommend you track here on MFP as well. That way you can make sure you're eating enough calories, hitting the right macros, and not inadvertently cannibalizing muscle by eating too little. I know, the "beauty" of a program like MRC is that you don't have to count calories. It doesn't hurt to count though, and lets you know how much you're really consuming.

Wishing you the best. :flowerforyou:

I started the plan and bought some of the supplements last month only to find out that I cannot take them (per my Dr). If anyone’s interested in buying them from me - message me. I’ll sell them @ a deep discount. They’re brand new bottles but each have one pill missing bc I took one before hearing from my Dr.

Hello, I'm just getting started with MRC so thought I'd see if MFP had some members as well.
