So, the basic medifast plan is five supplements and one "lean and green" meal.  We are allowed to pick any times of the day to have these supplements.  Most people, unless they have a planned lunch outing, have the lean and green meal as dinner.  It's somewhat natural to consider dividing the meals as:

• Breakfast
• Mid-morning snack
• Lunch
• Afternoon snack
• Dinner
• After dinner snack

When I first lost 45 pounds with Medifast, I kept to this pattern.  As I resume the journey, I'm trying something a little different.  Basically, I'm trying to save up two supplements for the after dinner period.  It gives me something a little more to look forward to at the end of the day. 

What's neat is that so far, it has been easy to incorporate that into the schedule.  I have my first supplement at about 8: 30 AM, using the water dispenser in the office cafeteria to mix up a shake.  The meals last about 3 hours, so that gives me meal #2 at 11:30 to noon and meal #3 in the mid afternoon.  I can have dinner at 6 or so, then I'm able to have a medifast chocolate bar and cappachino, or pudding and hot chocolate, or even some soup if that's what I'm in the mood for.  Having the freedom for two supplements in the nighttime hours even gives a solution to the midnight snacking-- something that is always an issue when you live in a household with little kids who tend to wake up a lot!

Any other medifasters have any meal spacing tips out there?
