Isagenix opinions

passionately_kate

I'm wondering if I can get Isagenix opinions? I won't be drinking 2 a day as recommended but I'll be drinking 1 a day. How did it make you feel? Did it help with weight loss?

It's expensive and Isagenix is actually really low quality protein and vitamins. I think it tastes horrible. I suggest you look into just a regular protein powder. You'll spend less, get better quality, and it should taste significantly better. Any possible weight loss benefits from Isagenix are simply that protein shakes are relatively filling and many people find protein keeps them full for longer, which helps you reduce your calorie intake. That's all the magic there is to the shakes.

Multilevel marketing diet scam. Pure woo. The only one who benefits from it is the seller peddling their overpriced garbage.

One shake a day? You'll be wasting money half as fast.

I lost 60 pounds with Isagenix in 2009. I gained a lot of energy and felt great. I still use the products and have maintained my weight loss and high energy since then

I agree with this.

I tried it (got suckered into it). Gained weight while on it and hated life (was starving constantly and because I was doing two shakes a day, I missed FOOD).

If you want an easy meal replacement, just get a decent protein shake. Most seem to have less sugar and less calories and just about the same protein as Isagenix for a fraction of the cost. I keep Orgain or Vega One in my house specifically so I have something quick and easy on hand when I need it.

Meal replacements DON'T deal with the issue of how you got overweight in the first place.................................food consumption. That's what you need to address and how to learn what to do when eating to NOT regain weight and stay closer to maintenance once you reach goal.
As mentioned, ANY weight loss program that involves meal replacements, shakes, supplements, etc. is just a waste of money for about 90% of the population.

I have been doing Isagenix since February of this year, and I have lost 27 pounds. I love the products. I have used Beachbody's Shakeology, ItWorks Shakes, and many of the OTC protein shakes, but I like Isagenix the best. I understand the reservations about network marketing, but network marketing has it pros and cons. Some of the network marketing companies have really good products, and I believe Isagenix is one of them.

Bottom line: you have to do what is right for you. You are going to find good and bad things about any company you research. Try it. See if it works for you. You can cancel and get your money back in first 31 days or cancel anytime. You also don't have to do an an autoship if you don't want to.

ALL products "work" if you follow the regimented program they have for weight loss. The point I'm making is that HOW LONG does someone want to keep doing that? If one has free money at their disposal and can live off shakes as meals THE REST OF THEIR LIFE, then more power to them. The general population consensus is that they WOULDN'T wanted to do that, hence once they are off a program like that, weight REGAIN occurs because again these companies DIDN'T teach the behavior of how to consume food to keep weight at maintenance.

Isagenix = protein powder with vitamins and sugar added. Nothing else. Calories 290. 13 grams of added sugars !
My protein powder (gold standard) only has 110 calories and 1 gram of sugar! For about 10 times less cost.
