First of all What is a good Medifast diet plan to lose 10 pounds each month in 3 months? Thanks in advance for any response. 2nd question I got is.. Well I'm going to be doing my first raw weekend this weekend with another couple of online pals who are vegans and as it's a spur of the moment decision, I don't have a dehydrator, or Medifast food processor. I will actually get those as I intend on going more and more raw as time goes on, but does anyone have any easy recipes to get me through my first weekend, till I become more familiar with the raw lifestyle that don't involve a dehydrator or Medifast food processor? I do have a juicer that I use all the time..

Thanks!..

Good question... I dunno what is the right answer to your question. I'll do some research in Google and get back to you if I find an decent answer. You should email the people at Medifast as they probably could give you help..

Cut the kernels off a fresh cob of corn, cut up one avocado, juice of 1/2 lime, some chopped green onion or red onion, some sweet red pepper, some hot red pepper, some cilantro, some chili powder, salt, pepper, hot pepper such as poblano, ... stir..

You can make a dressing if you like, but if your avocado's nice and ripe, some of it will sort of smush into a dressing with the lime juice...

These are brill. Thanks everyone. Well I started off half a day early and have my blender now..

Will be putting those tips to good use. Tried raw corn straight off the cob today and can't believe how amazing it tasted. So much more flavour and substance...
