Greetings everyone. This is my first post and I'm sure you'll be able to tell that! I have been looking at the medifast program for a few weeks now. A friend lost 15 pounds in a 5 week plan. I need to loose 20 and am very excited. My order should be in this week, yet I will start Oct 2. When vacation is over. Would rather wait than set up for failure. Anyway thought I'd get my feet wet in the forum introduce myself and say that from what I've already read, you will be a great inspiration for me. And I Thank You All. Kat

Thank You both very much! This board is going to be soooo much help, I can tell already. I know this is a silly question, but could I get some opinions on a time frame for a 20 pound loss? If I don't waver from the plan? Just curious if 5 to 6 weeks is at all reasonable. Thanks again,
Bless you ...Kat

Gosh, what a great question. I'm not sure what the answer is, I think everyone's loss is based on height, weight, weight to lose, etc. I lost 20 the first month - yet I was obese with 100 pounds to lose. In less than three months I am almost half way to my goal. This stuff works!!

Thanks I know it was a hard question. Just that I want to start some mini goals and the final. And thought if others could share their journey, it would be helpful. So again thank you alohacate and all. Looking forward to getting started! Kat

Hi Kat, welcome to the group. I think most of us here had more than 20 lbs to loose so that will be a hard question to answer. My guess would be about 5 to 7 weeks maybe. I know most people loose like 5 to 7 lbs in the first week then maybe 2 to 4 bls each week after...results NOT typical of course.
