Five Medifast Meals Methods

Five Medifast Meals Methods

5 & 1 Plan

With the 5 & 1 Plan, you eat 6 times a day – 5 Medifast Meals and 1 Lean & Green Meal. Eat one Meal every 2-3 hours.

Medifast Meals include your choice of shakes, soups, stew, oatmeal, chili, hot and cold drinks, scrambled eggs, bars and puddings. Each serving counts as one Meal, and you can customize your meal plan to include any combination; however, you should limit yourself to one bar per day.

Your Lean & Green Meal includes lean meat plus salad and/or vegetables. The Lean & Green Meal can be eaten at any time throughout the day – it does not have to be reserved for dinnertime!

LEAN:

*

5-7 ounces of cooked Lean Meat (e.g., chicken, turkey, fish, beef, pork, lamb, shellfish…). Grill, bake or poach meats-do not fry meats.
*

Meatless Options are suitable for vegetarians and for anyone seeking more variety in the Lean & Green Meal.
*

You can add optional condiments if desired. A complete Condiment List with appropriate portion sizes is available online.

GREEN:

*

Any 3 servings from our Vegetable List, such as broccoli, spinach, eggplant, or tomatoes.
*

All vegetables promote healthful eating, but during the weight loss phase of your plan we eliminate the highest carbohydrate vegetables (such as carrots, corn, peas, potatoes and brussels sprouts) in order to enhance your weight loss results.
