| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Medifast,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim reporting and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and notes that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included and management believes the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the 2024 audited consolidated financial statements at that date included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the 2024 Form 10-K.

| Presentation of Financial Statements | Presentation of Financial Statements - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
|
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
|
| Commitments and Contingencies | The Company is, from time to time, subject to a variety of litigation and similar proceedings that arise out of the ordinary course of its business. Based upon the Company’s experience, current information and applicable law, it does not believe that these proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity. However, the results of legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more legal actions.
|
| Advertising Expense | Advertising Expense - The costs of advertising efforts are expensed as incurred. They are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. |

ASU 2023-07 was effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted the standard for annual period during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, and for interim period during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Company's segment disclosures are reported in Footnote 9. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Pending Adoption In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”) to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, including jurisdictional information, by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and for all other entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Prospective application is required, though retrospective application is permitted. Entities are permitted to early adopt the standard. The Company has not early adopted the standard. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03—Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”) to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted.
