IF YA HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT THE MEDIFAST LET ME KNOW.... TTFN, BECCA

Hi! The only way I liked the Medifast was putting the chocoate in the blender with water and lots of ice. The nurse did say that the Medifast taste could be "doctored" by adding cooking extracts (which you can pick up at the grocery store) I tried adding mint extract to the chocolate but I still liked it better plain. The vanilla I added every extract I could find and even tried mixing a few together. The extracts I found were cherry, pineapple, orange, mint, lemon and banana. The medifast box says to add an 1/8 of a tsp of your chosen extract. Hang in there and good luck! Tara

Hi everyone.... Im on a mission im gonna find a way to make them easier to drink......l thanks for all the sugestions becca

Becca, I do not know who to doctor that stuff up but if it like the protein shakes then I like to add some fresh fruit to it, gives it natural sweetness and flavor. I wish you all the best and that you get your date soon Debra P

I could never get into those extracts either. I just liked mine COLD COLD COLD! If you check out the medifast they have some other flavors...like orange, strawberry, banana. But they are a little more expensive to order then when you get them from Dr. Lirio's office.

THERE is a chocolate extract that i use in my protein shakes that im not fond of! AND a packet of splenda! GOOD LUCK, i dont use them but there are some awesome DEVINCI sugar free syrups too that come in the coolest of flavors and there all the rave. MANY say you can get those at marshalls or tj maxs....good luck lisa

Hi Becca, Dr. Clarke was my surgeon, I did not like the Medifast. But I grew to tolerate the french vanilla blended with ice. Occasionally I would combine a chocolate and vanilla. Good luck and soon it will be surgery day!!! Becky
