Hey y'all!
Have any of y'all tried the Plexus Slim products? I just ordered the 7-day trial (mostly because family was selling it). I was curious to see if any of y'all had tried it and what y'all thought about it? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

I've been on it and haven't once changed my diet or exercise and lost 12lbs in two weeks. Reason I can't exercise is because I've had 3 surgeries this year (Feb, Apr, Aug) and can't honestly do anything and am restricted by my doctors. So I was turned onto this after my hairdresser who is very short started losing weight rapidly. I asked her what she was doing and she shared her Plexus story with me. I know many ppl are skeptics and I've read posts on mfp but it does work and I say to each there own. Also I got the results I did by detoxing my body first since I'm not "regular" and than took the plexus. I eat as usual and the weight just came off without me spending my time in the bathroom peeing or #2, cause who has time for that. I will say it works differently on different ppl. So you may see weight loss and maybe not in 7 days. You may lose inches however. I wish you the best.0

Isn't this another MLM scheme that swears it's herbal?
Why can't people ever learn that weight loss isn't that difficult if you have a calculator and can input data.
People on this site are pretty much anti-assistance/drugs/"weight-loss-supplements". In the end you have to eat less and move more. Preferably without spending money on some "diet scam".0 -
Oh goodie, something new! Now we don't just have to hear about the wonders of Shakeology, Visalus and Herbalife all day!0

What are the stats on what happens to the weight loss when you quit the pills? Most people can't afford ($-wise or health-wise) to be on them indefinitely...0

Uh you're not suppose to eat less. You eat more in smaller portions to increase or speed up your metabolism. Especially if you work out as well. Your body will burn more fat caloried if it knows it's getting the nutrition it needs, 5-6 small meals a day. As for the plexus stats I say do your homework and research the vast internet for answers. To each there own.0

This is the most hilariously wrong thing I've read in a while on these forums.
So - keep eating the same amount! Take this magic Potion. Eat 5-6 times a day. Lose 12 pounds in a week.
Don't tell me, you will be happy to sell us some, right?0 -
Oh, sorry. Lose 12 lbs in two weeks.
Sure. Why not.0 -
Eat at a sustainable deficit and you will lose weight.
Don't waste money on fad diets/pills/drinks that are NOT sustainable.0 -
spending my time in the bathroom peeing or #2, cause who has time for that.
I just have to say.... I generally make time for peeing or #2.....
'cause Depends are so expensive.

And why on earth would eating the same amount of calories you ate before cause you to lose weight, just because you are eating them six times a day? If I gas up my car six times a day, it is not going to burn more gas.

It's working for me. I eat primal (was doing so before Plexus). Say what you will, but I'm 30 pounds lighter than I was in June. I'm not starving myself, but diet and exercise alone WASN'T WORKING.
I know, I know. Calories in, calories out, right? A calorie is a calorie. Blah blah blah. Eat less, move more. Only it's not that simple for everyone, but you guys are obviously the lucky ones.
I'm not and have no intentions of selling it. I'll continue to take it.0 -
I love my plexus. I started off only interested in the weight loss. I ended up with so many more benefits! Not only did I lose 18 inches overall the first month, but I also lost a few pounds (8 I believe). During the first two weeks I did nothing but add more water to my diet..no exercising and no dieting. After the first week my food cravings were gone, and I felt wayyyyy more energized--so I started adding a measly 30 minutes of workout time a day. (Lunch breaks).
I found that along with the weight loss/inches lost....I was feeling better in other ways. I have the following that HAVE been diagnosed by my doctor: fibro, arthritis, carpal tunnel, tendinitis, water in my knees, degenerative disc disease, rls, chronic light-induced migraines.
While being on plexus, I saw all of the pain caused by the above diminish. I'm sure it had something to do with being more active as well, but I believe plexus was the main reason.
I then started selling Plexus. (TWO DAYS AGO)...and ONLY because I believe in this product.
I will always believe that there will never be some magic pill, or drink to fix all of your ailments, but I DO believe that Plexus may be the closest we'll ever see to that.
If you're skeptical--try it! NO, I'm not trying to sell it on here--I do that on my website and FB page---so no need on here :-)
But I AM suggesting that you can't knock something before you try it.
Like me, you may be losing just more than weight :-)0 -
If anyone wants a good laugh, go to the website and look through the "11 ways to earn income with plexus".
At least they don't call themselves "coaches", they are Ambassadors!0 -
Oh, and looks like Canada and Australia don't want you to be healthy!

This is wrong on so many levels. Please do your research.0 -

Here's the "Proprietary Blend" (aka the easy way of saying a bunch of stuff mixed together)
"Proprietary blend of Chlorogenic Acid (from Green Coffee Caffea arabica Bean) Extract (contains less than 2% natural caffeine), Garcinia cambogia Fruit Extract, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Hoodia gordonii Whole Plant Extract."
Of course this is going to give you energy but you want to know an easier way to get practically the SAME energy for about $6?
Drink 2 to 4 cups of green tea spread out throughout the day...when that starts to not work as hard switch to stronger brand or an oolong tea.
This is jus another MLM scheme.
You can buy all the same ingredients through supplements via BodyBuilding, Supplement Warehouse or other trustworthy suppliers for A LOT less.
Also you can not lose weight and sustain it without a good foundation of knowing HOW weight loss happens and WHY food is important to success. These companies teach "Drink this over hyped caffeine blend and lose weight!"...of course you will drop water weight because green tea & garcinia cambogia will make you PISS like no other, it's a natural diuretic. The weight you are losing is not intramuscular fat, subcutaneous fat or visceral fat. You are merely pissing out water which will show on the scale that you've lost weight but will not reduce body fat.
Diet & Nutrition > Exercise > Supplements in that order for weight loss and supplements are not even necessary in most cases.
These people are ripping you blindfolded people off left & right...0 -

I successfully lost weight on Plexus Slim.
I also successfully gained it all back when I stopped using it.
It was nasty, made me feel sick (too sick to eat), and so tired that I couldn't function properly. I know so many people who lost weight on it, and they, like me, gained it all back. Using the product is definitely not sustainable. At some point, a person has to start holding themselves accountable for how much they eat instead of depending on the latest fad diet to do all the work for them.0 -

I am currently on Plexus Slim, my first week on it, I lost 10 lbs, but I also didn't eat hardly anything and like many posts, I was spending more time in the bathroom. My fight right now is trying to eat things that will help with weight loss while on this. I am finally 2 lbs from my original week, but then again I have only been on this for about 3 weeks. I see the inches coming off and I feel better, I am currently looking for a meal plan that will work with me and my family. It sucks having to make two different meals each night. I do have to say, before starting this I hardly drank any water now I am drinking at least 96 oz of water a day. I am now needing to find a workout plan that isn't going to ask for more than 20 minutes a day that I can do at home.0

This caused me to facepalm so hard I may have a concussion, so much fail right here.
OP, diuretics and stimulants are not the answer, you'll lose some water and waste weight in the short term, but you're not going to speed up your metabolism with some magic concoction. Calorie deficit is what works, not MLM schemes.

I don't eat anything with "slim" in it. I try to eat food that's been cooked by me or if not, food that is not TOO processed.0

"Their." sorry I'm a jerk about that.0 -
Yep. I heard on the internet if you wear a batman costume while you work out. Your metabolism speeds up and burns all your fat while your muscles inflate and you turn into Christian bale. You can purchase these on the Dr Oz show.
I'm laughing so hard right now. Seriously!0
