Did anyone use Medifast products for the pre-op diet?



Recommended Posts

I order a months worth of medi fast about a month before my surgery, plan was to stay on it a month.

I think I stayed on like 2 days. Stuff is horrible, well, i should say most of the stuff is horrible.

The shakes are terrible, it took me half an hour to choke on down mixed with Water. The pudding is awful, the chili is not bad if you add alot of chili powder and some salt and pepper.

If you can do anything else do it, the stuff is awful. PM me your address and I'll send you a couple things to try if you would like. If I would have tried it first I could have saved myself $300 dollars

good luck

Brian, thanks for the offer but I must confess that I actually like many of the products. :) But you don't need to be out $300. If you ordered within the last 30 days you can get a full refund on up to 10 boxes as long as not more than one packet has been used in the box. If it's more than 30 days, sell it all on ebay! I did that once. You usually get back at least half your money selling it on ebay. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
