I started Ozempic the last week of Oct and have lost 20 lbs. For me the initial weight loss was significant, but it did slow down some. The good news is I continue to lose so I'm happy the scales are moving in the right direction.

I started on 10/20 with the .25 dose. No noticeable changes until about day 4 when I noticed I wasn't ravenously hungry during the day like I normally was. Took my second shot 10/27. Scales show a 3.4 lb loss for the first week. By second day of week 2, I had ZERO appetite. I'm amazed at how quickly this came about. I…

I just started Optavia Jan 1,2022. I did the Medifast version about 8 years ago and lost lots of weight. I am having a wedding vow renewal in Mexico in March and my goal is to lose as close to 30 lbs as possible in two months. I am also drinking a gallon of water per day. Can't really exercise due to knee mobility so I'm…

I’m back!! I started Jan 30. Today is June 7 and I am down 47 pounds. Starting weight- 240.5; current weight-193.2!! I’m 3 lbs away from the 50lb mark, and after that 10 lbs to go for a total loss of 60 lbs. I even overheard my husband last night telling my son how good I look!!

What are you doing to tone/lose in the tummy area?

When I started on Jan 30, my goal was to lose 60 lbs. I am now down 46 lbs so my next mini goal is to hot the 50lb mark. I’’m just 4 lbs from that goal. Once I hit the 50 lb mar, then hopefully its downhill all the way with the last 10 lbs. I hope to have met goal by end of July.

Quarantine has been the perfect opportunity for me…

MishiMeeks, I understand how you feel but please keep pushing. I feel the same way some days, but this is what I do to try to keep pushing- when I feel down and depressed I remind myself that this is the best possible time to focus on diet ad eating! Why? 1. We can’t travel or vacation so I don’t have the excuse of messing…

Hello! I’m Rhonda, a 51 year old stay-at-home- mom from NC. On Jan 30 I decided to do something about being overweight.I want to lose 60 lbs; I’m half-way to my goal. See my stats below: Original starting weight - 240.5 (Jan 30) April starting weight -211.6 April l goal - Ultimate goal - 180 April 1st -211.6 9th- 209.2…

Hello, ad please feel free to add me! I’m 51 and for the last 10 weeks I decided to do something about my weight! My goal is to lose 60 lbs. In 10 weeks I’m down 31.3 lbs and counting...

10 weeks and 31 lbs down! I’ve got 29 lbs to go. Losing 60 lbs is challenging but I’m committed!

Awesome. I can definitely see the difference! Keep up the good work!!

Hello, I started Physician’s Weight Loss Jan 30, 2020. Today is March 21, we are in the midst of this horrible COVID-19 and I am down 26 lbs. I am determined that when these virus restrictions are lifted, I will emerge healthier and slimmer. I am taking advantage of the fact that restaurants are closed. It forces me to…

Welcome!! This app is wonderful and you will be successful! Desiring a cheat meal is normal. But, you have to remember, reducing caloric intake in critical if you expect to lose weight. I follow a strict diet plan and have lost 22 pounds in 5 1/2 weeks. Here recently I decided to treat myself to a “small” cheat meal. I did…

I confess, I tried carb blockers last night so I could have a “cheat meal” for my son’s birthday!

Hello! I am four days into Medifast and I've lost 8.8 lbs. I know the weight loss will slow down but so far I am happy. I have 62 lbs to go.

I've started and stopped a couple of times but just started back full swing Tuesday, May 20. Down 6 pounds in 5 days; 11 pounds total since I started. I'm intentionally weighing everyday the first week. After Tuesday, I'll weigh weekly. Much success to everyone!!!

Thanks! I realized they are a maintenance product because they are in the green wrapper. I purchased my meals from a Medifast store here locally. I wonder why she didn't say anything when she helped me make my selections.

I'm typically up by 5:30 each morning and I immediately reach for my drinking mug full of water (32 oz). I typically guzzle that until I head out for work and I have my first meal by 8:30. I don't necessarily try to apace them out; I just eat when I feel hungry. I find that sipping on my jug of water really curbs the…

Is that 4 lbs, or .4lbs? Also, was that overnight or are you weighing yourself once per week?

I know I could stand to up0 my water intake. I'm working on that! My sodium is all over the place from 1300g to 2300g. How much sodium should I be monitoring for?

I've been on Medifast for 7 days now and I like the Leslie Sansone "Walk Away the Pounds" videos. I usually just pull them up on Youtube. She has a video for 1 mile all the way to 5 miles. I'm totally out of shape but easily made it through the one mile video. Hope this helps! Rhonda

Wow!! Kudos to you. I just started Medifast last Tuesday (4/22) and today 4/27) I am down 10 lbs. I still have 47 pounds to go. Was there anything particular you did that you think boosted your weight loss on medifast? Everything I've read says expect a loss of 2-3 pounds per week but yours averged about 4 pounds per week.…

Hi, I just started the Medifast Program last Tuesday, April 22. I have weighed myself each morning (I know I shouldn't, but I couldn't resist) and I am down 10 lbs even in five days. I can't wait to step on the scales Tuesday morning to see how much I've lost in the first week. I am super excited about this diet because I…

I'm new to the low carb diet, and have only been doing it for three days. All the info I get is from the internet so I don't have a "true" diet guideline to follow. I have 60 pounds to lose and I would love to lose it as quickly as and as safely as possible. When you did your low carb diet did you eat fruit? I logged an…

Hi, I'm new (been tracking for three days now) and plan to do the low carb diet as well. I don't have much info on law carb but I pray I will be successful.

Hi I plan to return to Medifast tomorrow. I did Medifast 3 years ago and lost a considerable amount of weight in a short period of time. I was looking at the official website and they say 1-2 lbs per week, but I could have sworn I lost more than that when I did this program three years ago. How are you guys averaging with…
