Isagenix?

I am 10 days into Isagenix, I just did a 2 day body cleanse. The cleanse left me 4.5 lbs lighter and 4.5 inches less all around. Total, in 10 days I've lost 8.5 lbs and 6 inches. I find that isagnix curbs my appetite and gives me SO much energy and improves my mood. So, don't read one crappy article and make up your mind.

Thank you Barbie Cat!
And congratulations on your loss!

You know...There are scoffers with any program. But if it works for some and make them feel better why do others feel the need to act superior?? Like what works for them is better for everyone! We are all on here for the same goal but there are very different ways to get to that goal. I still use MFP every day and watch my calories/fat/carbohydrates and protein breakdown. Why does it seem to bother people that I and others try a system??

And there is nothing wrong with cleansing or fasting every so often. It does energize people. I did a 10-day juice fast once and felt fabulous!

I'll never understand why people feel the need to judge.

It's not scoffing when actual scientific evidence hasn't shown that "cleansing" has any other effect than a calorie deficit. On a public forum, people who get desperate will do programs that may be expensive and get the same exact results as just doing calorie deficit without having to fork out extra money.
Being in the business for a good amount of years, programs sold as "the way" all have the same thing in common......calorie deficit. There's no secret to weight loss. I've seen my share of "magic" programs and as I've stated before, 90% of those who take it on fail in the long run because it's usually not a lifestyle change, but just a temporary eating change. Choosing to do it with this program is a choice you care to take on. But letting the public know that the ANY dieting program isn't really needed and extra money doesn't need to be spent is just being informational to those who really may want to know. Especially if the 30 day program is $269.00

8.5lbs of fat calories would be 29,750. That would mean that you had to be in 2975 deficit calories per day...........................yeah probably not. But water weight.............absolutely. That's the actual numbers not crap. Guaranteed you don't see a 16lbs loss in 20 days, but if you do, then you're doing it wrong for safe weight loss.

Plus I thought there was only a set amount of weight a person can lose per week before it becomes both fat and muscle being lost? 8.5lbs in ten days is either a lot of water weight or you saying goodbye to some muscle too, IMO.

Cindy,
Isagenix is more than a diet or just a cleanse. There are lots of supplements, and I just don't mean vitamins, I am not using their daily packs of vitamins since I take specific ones. But there are supplements meant to promote a feeling of well being and have you feel less stress. This is much more than diet deficit. I've been on this program 5 days and have only lost 1 pound but I feel better! I feel actually energetic when last week I was like a lump on the couch.
I started this post to get opinions of people who have used the program, not people who want to tell me I can do it myself. I have 15 pounds to lose so if I want to spend some money because just plain calorie deficit isn't working plus I couldn't get off the couch because even eating my vegetarian organic diet didn't have me feeling good then why do you feel the need to tell me I'm wasting my money. Maybe I will be but unless you've used the system then your opinion wasn't exactly the one I was seeking.

It's funny... I've never heard of people scoffing at eating a balanced diet at a modest deficit and getting some exercise?
