BBV vs IT Works

Jazzercise

This,

Jazzercise plus It Works! wraps (there is an exclamation in the name, please don't forget).

Those two are responsible for this awesome tattoo I developed!

The problem I have had with BBV is that I was super hungry on it... the shakes did not fill me up or keep me full very long (they are full of fruit, quick carbs!)... However, I've watched some video's on Youtube from a guy "CoachWilliams" and it makes sense on how to eat with the shakes... It hink what most people don't understand is that the shakes are a supplement, not suppose to be the only thing you eat.

CoachWilliams described a typical day:

SHake
Workout
Breakfast (like 5 egg whites!)
Snack
Shake
Snack
Dinner
Snack

Never once did he say to only shake and I think that is where I went wrong in the first place, and most people fail on the program.. and are also mislead to believe it's a fad diet... the shakes are suppose to be PART of your eating, not the only thing you eat!

I agree with this but that certainly isn't how it's being promoted. It is being sold as a meal replacement.

Agree 100% - the advertisements as well as the people promoting it are very misleading

Bugger all the stuff that's already been mentioned. What you really need is a tug toner!

Thanks Guys, I loved reading this thread.

Also, I'd love me some shakeweights. My bf has one built right in so I just use his.

Just remember Jazzercise only works if you're dressed like this:


I mean really, they can't all be wrong, can they?

Can you imagine how embarassing it is to be this woman? HAHAHA. To have this fashion faux paus immortalized in such a way?

why would you not want to hear negative experiences? that doesn't even make sense. if a product gave many people an allergic reaction or didn't work as specified I would want to know. why bother asking anything if you are only going to read what you want to hear?

I was basically going to say something like this. Basically he is saying "I want eveyone's input so long as it is an endorsement of what I have already decided to do."

Because this was supposed to stay upbeat and positive. Leave it to all these trolls to ruin that. I have not decided on one yet which is why I want input. I'm not as worried about the negatives because people tend to exxagerate those. like with those alli pills......People were always talking about how it makes you crap yourself but it doesn't. A little leakage is far different from a full on load in your pants.

Yes, a little anal leakage is definitely not an issue :sick:, and certainly not worth talking about.

We'll agree to disagree......back to the topic at hand. Anyone used either. Great stories about either one?

If you want to hear good results why don't you call a BBV promoter or someone who sells the wraps? They have PLENTY of success stories for you. I think they fact that you aren't getting the response you want should be answer enough. Are you that dense? If you want to starve yourself, BBV. If you want to lose some water weight and "look thinner" use the wraps.

Best of luck in your "weight loss journey".

This is exactly why it's so easy for people to make millions in the weight loss industry. Everyone is willing to pay too much for a magic fix. There is no magic fix.

While I find this thread COMPLETELY amusing and I also agree that the best way to lose anything is slow and steady through diet and exercise, I figure I'll chime in on this for It Works. SAVE YOUR MONEY! My cousin is a distributor and she seriously will not shut up about this stuff. She badgered me so much, that I tried it to be supportive. It didn't do anything. I followed the directions and even had her perform the wrap....nothing. She and some of her friends have used this stuff RELIGIOUSLY for a couple of months now (wraps, the pills, and the shakes). While they claim otherwise, it hasn't changed their appearance one bit. They post these ridiculous before and after shots of "actual clients" (obviously provided in their marketing materials) after three wraps, going from a pudgy fat-*kitten* to slim with a six-pack. It's just not realistic.

I completely understand wanting to drop holiday weight quick, and I know nothing about BBV, but it works is a pyramid scam at its finest and is not something that actually works.

Binge and purge!

Get over the vomit to get into the dress, you know you want to Jac.

Nothing wrong with a good healthy release.

.

I'd like to hear from someone who has PERSONALLY had a positive experience with either. I have yet to meet someone (who isn't paid) who thinks a product works better than good ole diet and exercise.

I love how when this post hit the thread nobody responded. That kind of silence speaks volumes.

Mhmm...strange isn't it?
