I started MF today and really can't stand the oatmeal and the chicken noodle soup. Can I substitute a bar or shake for these items?
I'm a little discouraged because I had such high hopes for this plan...maybe I just need to find out which items I like and which ones I don't

You can absolutley substitute any of the medifast meals for the oatmeal or soup. All of the meals are interchangeable. As long as you eat 5 per day it doesn't matter which meal you have. You can do the same thing for each meal if you want to.
I would NOT recommend that you buy oatmeal at the store. It is not the same. This is a very low calorie diet and it is heavily fortified to ensure that you get the nutrition that you need. The oatmeal from the store isn't.
Also...you can return any boxes of food that you don't like for a full refund as long as there is only one meal missing from the box. So just find what you like. Send the rest back and just order the things that you want next time.
Medifast works great as long as you can stick to the plan. You can drop alot of weight quickly and it really controls hunger and cravings. But if you don't get the meals in every day...you could really mess with your health.
