Medifast Snacks – How Many Per Day?

March 10th, 2009 by Inspector | Comments Off | Filed in Medifast

The Medifast Plan, known as the 5&1 plan, calls for 5 Medifast products per day, plus your lean & green meal. But if some days you find yourself a bit hungrier than usual, or if you need to delay a meal — you can also have a snack. Just remember. That’s ONE snack per day!

Medifast has a couple of different products that are designated as snacks and not a meal — these are the Soy Crisps and the Crackers.

Now the soy crisps I find quite tasty. They come in three flavors — apple cinnamon, ranch and white cheddar. I’ve tried both the ranch and the white cheddar and love them. Just be careful that you only eat one bag at a time! Maybe they are a little bit too good??

Aside from the soy crisps, there are also the Medifast crackers. These come in multi-grain or garden vegetable flavors. I personally find them to be mostly tasteless, but they aren’t too bad when added to the Medifast soups. Sometimes you just need a little crunch.

For snacks you don’t have to order from Medifast, you have your choice of the following:

  • 3 celery sticks
  • 1/2 cup sugar free gelatin
  • 1 sugar free popsicle
  • 2 dill pickle spears
  • up to 3 pieces of sugar free gum or mints

Of these, I find the dill pickles to be the most satisfying. They have a nice crunch and they tide me over pretty well to my next meal without making me feel like I just want to keep munching away. If you like celery, that will probably work just as well. I’m not a fan of celery myself though.

Just keep in mind, that regardless of whether your snack is provided by Medifast, or comes from the list of approved snacks — you are only allowed one snack serving per day.
