Can I exercise when Im on the Medifast program?
Yes, you can, but we suggest limiting the amount of exercise, especially in the beginning. It takes three to four weeks for the body to adapt to the Medifast plan and use the fat stores for energy. During this time, too much exercise can cause dehydration as well as decrease your weight loss and harm your muscle tissue. Your Hi-Energy certified weight loss counselor will provide you with guidelines and recommended exercises that are targeted to your individual needs.
