You may recall our coverage of NFL head coach Andy Reid of the Philidephia Eagles losing weight with Medifast last summer. In August of last year Andy had lost around 75 lbs using Medifast. Now, we have another coach who has had great success using Medifast.
Now the University of Maryland head football coach Ralph Friedgen is joining in on the fun, dropping 105 lbs using the Medifast diet plan. Thats right, 105 lbs! Pretty impressive. No football coach likes losing, but we think Coach Friedgen made an exception in this case and enjoyed losing every pound. "The Fridge" as he is known in College Park decided it was high time to drop some weight and drop down into the ‘Cooler’ class perhaps.
In nine months, Ralph was able to make some serious headway toward making his nickname far less fitting.
Not only has Ralph lost a ton of weight and has been keeping it off, his two daughters are now using Medifast as well with great results. His first daughter to try the plan has already lost 45 lbs. Pretty sweet.
One of the biggest bonuses of Medifast for Ralph was the structure of the diet and having the meals mostly prepared and ready to eat. Finding time in an 18 hour day during the season to cook and prepare food can be quite a challenge. But with Medifast everything was structured and laid out for him.
