“I was always the cute kid with the chubby cheeks who had to purchase the ‘husky’-size jeans. As a 52-year-old adult, I needed to do something.

“My wife and I want to grow old together, and I knew that being overweight was going to be a serious stumbling block to achieving that goal. Plus, I was tired of being tired and having painful muscles and joints. I didn’t want my wife to have to put up with my snoring forever.

“I knew I just couldn’t lose weight on my own. I needed the support and accountability that came with the Medifast Weight Control Centers Program. And perhaps most important, I knew that I needed to permanently change how I eat.

“Having a variety of Medifast Meals was good for me, since my platinum-plated taste buds crave variety. And I knew that I was getting a nutritionally balanced diet because I didn’t feel hungry.

“There’s nothing like success to breed success. I saw results the first week. By the end of week four, my weight was down 20 lbs and other people were noticing. That just motivated me all the more to keep doing the program!

“A hip pain that would wake me up at night went away. I stopped snoring. Due to my weight loss, my cholesterol went from a dangerous 212 to a healthy 148. And finally, I have more stamina. After all, I’m no longer carrying the equivalent of a small child around with me.

“Losing the weight took years off of my looks and freed me from the stigma that comes from being obese. Even my golf swing has improved: I can make a better and more consistent turn back through the ball since there is less of me to turn.

“Bottom line: Not only did Medifast Weight Control Centers give me a new life. I absolutely believe that as long as I continue with the healthy lifestyle habits I’ve learned, I will never again be the ‘fat boy’ I used to be. Thank you Medifast!”

*Results not typical. Typical weight loss on the Medifast Jump Start Plan is up to 2 to 5 lbs per week.
