Meatloaf Sandwich was *great*!
I couldn't believe it. When I saw the frozen meatloaf sandwich, it looked so processed and gross. The meatloaf looked like it was raked by something in the meatloaf factory. But it was so good! And filling! And satisfying! And it tasted really good! I'm ordering a bunch more. I like it with reduced sugar ketchup and a…

Ideas for Lunch Not on Plan?
I guess I should call it a lunch not on plan. I mean a lunch that I have to do on my own and it's a NS meal. I'm new to NS and to be honest, I can't really figure it out. I could call a coach but I kinda don't wanna. Thought I'd search the internets first for an answer. So what do you all eat for your free lunch/dinner? I…

Medifast Mashed Potatoes?
Oh, please someone order these and tell me if they're good or not! I'm guessing not but I'll wait to see your reviews. I just got a new order but I may order one on my next one.

Headaches?
I've done medifast before with no side effects at all. I'm at it again because I regained the weight (after a few years) and I'm having lots of headaches. I thought it was dehydration but I've been drinking at least 3 bottles of water a day (9 cups total) and I'm peeing nonstop. I remember having to pee a lot last time but…

Pineapple Mango Smoothie?
Anyone try it? I just ordered a box. I feel like I can't find any honest reviews of medifast food online. Everyone raves about this stuff and some of it is just &^%ing gross.

Lean & Green = Paleo?
When I go out to eat with friends (not my closest friends obvi bc they know I'm on medifast), I've started telling them I'm on paleo. It's easier to explain and perhaps a little more socially acceptable. The more I look into paleo, the more I see the similarities. Does anyone know if there are major differences?

Tomato Sauce/Canned Tomatoes/Tomato Products?
I know we're allowed tomatoes. How about canned tomato sauce? I feel like I've seen recipes for spaghetti squash with tomato sauce and I'm not sure how this is still on plan since tomatoes are high in carbs. Anyone know if tomato sauce is allowed? (I mean canned tomato sauce to make sauce from scratch, not Ragu or…

Soft Serve
I like the flavor of the soft serve but never make it because it's a pain. Are there alternative ways to prepare the soft serve, like use it as a shake?

Grilled Vegetables
I consider myself a pretty good cook but one thing I can not master is grilled veggies. I only have my oven (no outside grill) so how do I make grilled veggies that taste good? I'm beginning to think these only taste good if someone else makes them for me. Which vegetables do I use? Do I chop them? Place them directly on…

Mac and Cheese?!?
Has anyone tried it? Is it good? I'm restarting Medifast next week and ordered two boxes.

Chipotle in Adobo Sauce - recipes?
I made enchilada sauce using chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. I have never tried chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and now I'M OBSESSED! They are sooooo good. So....what else can I make with them? Anyone know? I'm trying to go low carb, low cal, low fat (low fun - just kidding!). Thinking of turkey burgers mixed with a can…

Best Bathroom Scale?
I need to buy a new bathroom scale. I've had bad luck with these types of scales. I find them unreliable and they always seem to weigh me 2 lbs lighter than the doctor's scale. So...does anyone have a good bathroom scale to recommend? How about the ones that calculate % body fat?

Lean & Green Meal Calories
How many calories do you typically consume during your lean & green meal? I'm only on week 2 but think I may be overindulging a bit on this meal. I've been traveling this week so it's more difficult to really estimate the weight of my protein and how much oil was used in cooking it so I'm trying to get overly obsessive…

When do plateaus occur?
Can it be anytime during one's weight loss? Do they typically occur when you've lost 10% of your weight? How do you know when you've reached one - 2 weeks of no weight loss? 3 weeks? I don't think I'm plateauing but just wondering if it's around the bend. I'm still losing but it's really slowed down and I still have a lot…

Couldn't get my heart rate up during exercise today?
Hi - I work out about 3-5 times/week and often go to spin class. Yesterday I went for a run and my heart rate was around 165-175, which is normal. I went out last night, had 3 drinks, went home relatively early (midnight). Got up this morning and went to spin class. I couldn't get my heart rate above 160 according to my…

HRM off - possible interference? Any ideas?
I have a Garmin Forerunner 210. I've been doing a lot of spinning recently and my heart rate is usually averages between 154-166 bpm per class with a max of 181-185 bpm. (I'm comparing my last 6 spinning classes to get these numbers). I took a spinning class last night at 6pm. Today, I took another spinning class at…
