visalus vs slim fast?

It is not a scam. MOST of the folks that will tell you it is have not tried it themselves.

I personally drink them and love them. I drink 2 per day but I do not replace 2 meals per day. I usually have one in the mornings. I also have one mid-afternoon as a snack.

Feel free to add me or message me if you have any questions.

Best of luck to you! And remember, always do what works best for you, bottom line.

I don't think it's a scam, but I think it (and every other diet shake) is an over-priced, over-processed milkshake.

No single food or product is going to magically make you lose weight, you have to find a way of reducing your calorie intake (and hopefully increasing the nutritional value of your food) that works for you. And you have to be able to keep eating the right amount (not too much, not too little) for the rest of your life.

If a packaged milkshake helps you meet that goal, go for it.
But remember, it's not the shake itself that is "working" - you are!

thats exactly the point...the point of the shakes is to serve as a platform to lower your caloric intake as well as up the nutritional value of what your intaking...as well as motivate/"challenge" you to better yourself

It's not a scam per say, but you can do better with real food. But if it is working for you, is healthy, by all means it is your choice and who cares about the rest? I would look into a good whey isolate though, it might be much cheaper.

Are you a Beatles man or an Elvis man?
Make your choice wisely.

It has protein which is satiating. It is cheaper and you get more protein for your calories to just make your own out of whey isolate.

this. There's no magic shake that makes you lose weight. VIalius is a promoter of low calorie diets...thats why the shake works...because they hardly eat any food. Not necessarily a good thing.

Are you a Beatles man or an Elvis man?
Make your choice wisely.

There are two types of people in this world....

those that like Neil Diamond, and those that do not.

Neither

Basically, if you use it as a meal replacement, and you lose weight, it's not because the shake "worked," it's because your calorie count was at a deficit more times than not. If you plan on using it after you reach your goal, to me, theres no difference than the protein shake I have for breakfast during the week when I go to work. It's quick, it's easy, and I like it.

My belief on this whole thing is this...eat now what I like, eat it in moderation, and when I get where I want to be, I'm not changing anything, just have a little bit more of everything I like.

I have never tried Visalus or Slim Fast, but I do have a meal replacement shake from another company for breakfast once or twice per week. I do this on days when I don't have time to eat breakfast, because the shake is quick easy and a better choice than the other kinds of things I used to grab on the go. I prefer to eat real food for breakfast, but the shakes are a good substitute when I need it. I don't think any of them are a magic weight loss cure, but if it works for you and your lifestyle, then nothing wrong with it.

I have heard a lot of hype over visalus. My sister in law tried to get me to purchase it off her and to sell etc so she could make money off of the commission! I did my research and saw her results and others that she's dealt with honestly not the 'best' I've seen.

Saw the bill to one of her clients said $240 for a starter kit! (canadian pricing) Holy hell! An over priced shake that's for sure.

Basically she was always about a size 12-14 for as long as I've known her and her using the product religiously didn't make for good results in my honest opinion. Reason being she didn't look fit or healthy! I know she was using it as a weight loss solution with zero hard work (working out). I honestly couldn't even tell that she lost weight because she still looked the same. I think she said she was a size 10. She's spend hundreds/thousands not worth it IMO.

Of course if you use this as a meal replacement you will lose wight because of the calorie deficit. I make my own protein shakes and have the pre made kind for work if I need a quick lunch/snack.

But this is been my experience, as others have said do your research and good luck!
