Popping open a can of tuna and going at it with a fork is faster, easier, and has more protein than a shake0 -

Growing up, my grandmother would make tonno (dark tuna in oil) with just a splash of vinegar and some onions. Learned to like it. Now solid white in water is just delicious straight out of the can.
Turkey Perky Jerky is a good protein source too .. very low sodium for a jerky (matters to me).
eta: they make a caffeinated version too. I find this odd.0 -
ok- here is my story on Advocare.
I did the 10 cleanse last year, and loved it. I think I lost 8 pounds. I was eating super clean, no carbs, and drinking TONS of water. Guess what, I could have saved the 40 bucks, changed my diet and still lost the 8 pounds. But during those 10 days, i thought it was all because of Advocare. (stupid me!) After those 10 days, i slowly gained the 8 pounds back. You know why? I started to eat carbs again. My clothes still fit the same, so whatever! I didnt lose fat on the cleanse, I lost water. And I didnt gain fat back, I gained water.
Ok- so a few months later, I dont know maybe 6 or 7, I was stupid again, and spent the money on 24 day challenge. Well I had been eating better than I was before i started the 10 day cleanse. I continued to eat well, workout and take a crap load of Advocare pills. Guess what, I didn't lose anything. Well maybe 2 or 3 pounds. I could have done that on my own.
Really- please save your money.0 -

0.82g of protein per lb of bodyweight would suffice.
1g of protein per lb of bodyweight if you want to feel re-assured.0 -
Did aimee send you a message too? Please stay away from that "cleanse" crap. It's BS.0

I've used the Advocare shakes before and found them to be quite delicious but expensive. I learned to make my own shakes with frozen fruit, protein powder, and almond milk. The reason I drink shakes is because in the morning eating hurts my stomach...literally...(I have multiple medical conditions that affect my entire digestive system). I found drinking gets me full, jump starts my metabolism, and I don't miss the best meal of the day
My mom took all their supplements and didn't loose any weight at all now shes on MFP and eating right and she' lost almost as much as I have!0 -
I have 3 friends on Facebook that lost weight and sing the praises of advocare. I always think they could do the same just by eating right. Now that I see how expensive it is I think they are all crazy, but at least they've gotten good results.0
