I'm doing this mostly on my own. I buy my Medifast through Take Shape For Life, which is like a sister company. They set you up with a health coach who is supposed to help you out. I'm really lucky, my coach is an old friend, so I can tell or ask her ANYTHING. I find the online support really helpful. I don't even have a Medifast center nearby, so it was not an option for me. I work a crazy rotating schedule, so I don't think it would be convenient for me if it was available.
Do what you think will work best for you. If a weekly meeting helps keep you motivated and honest, then the money spent at the center may be well worth it.
