Medical Monitoring

Do Medifast users require medical supervision while on the program?

You should consult with your physician or qualified medical practitioner prior to beginning (and throughout the course of) any weight loss program. You should consult with your doctor if you:

  • have any serious medical conditions
  • are on medications, especially diabetic medications
  • have 50 or more pounds to lose
  • are age 65 or older
  • are under age 18
  • Are there any special guidelines for Medifast customers over age 70?

    If you are over the age of 70, this program should be done with your physician's supervision. Your physician may recommend a higher caloric intake based on your individual needs. Dosages of medications may need to be adjusted and labs and vital signs need to be monitored. For more information, please refer to the Medifast Senior Meal Plan.


    Additional Information
    How Medifast Compares to Slim-Fast

    The Slim-Fast Optima Diet allows you to combine portions of regular foods with Slim-Fast Optima products, including diet shakes and meal bars. Combining Slim-Fast Optima diet foods with regular food requires you to measure food calories and fat content, and you may go over your daily requirements of fat content and calories by not properly measuring your foods' nutrients.

    Maureen
    I was always on the chubby side growing up and have struggled with my weight pretty much all my life, but I didn't get really heavy until I got married.

    Jeff
    I was always athletic as a kid, but because of high-fat, home-cooked meals and junk food I was also always overweight. When my wife decided to try the Medifast plan, I wanted to support her and I signed on too.
