Plexus Slim

Here is my experience so far with Plexus Slim. I am in my first month of taking it and I have only lost 8 lbs. I was hoping for more like so many others have experienced, but I refuse to take the accelerator pills because even though I would love the extra energy I am sensitive to things interfering with my sleep. I am always skeptical about supplements, but when a friend of mine started this and lost quickly (and she is only being 30 lbs overweight), I decided to give it a try. By the second day of trying the powder I was SOLD! But not for weight loss, but because it made me feel normal for the first time in 18 years! I have suffered from massive chronic fatigue as a side effect of Ankylosing Spondylitis and by the second day of drinking Plexus Slim I was waking up feeling refreshed, something I haven't felt since I was a teenager! I am an ambassador, but I do not sell it I only do that for the discount. I have already decided that even if it doesn't help me lose a lot of weight, I will continue with it because of how much better I feel. And even though the scale has only dropped 8 lbs, I have lost 32 inches overall, and that makes me so happy! I have also noticed that since I started drinking plexus my daily routine of going for a walk has been much easier for me. I used to walk only 3.75 miles everyday and that was rough with my energy levels. But now I easily walk almost 6 miles and am going to start walking further to see how that goes.

I am not trying to convince anyone to buy it, I think if you can avoid supplements and do things naturally on your own that is always the best bet. But after trying it myself I can say that it has really helped me in a few different ways. I have always had really bad hunger pains and it has helped cut those down and helped me control my meal portions more. And I have been experiencing what others claim with regards to not craving sweets. I don't normally eat a lot of sweets anyway, but I am a Coke junkie, and I rarely even think about drinking it anymore and go days without one. Plexus claims that their products work better with lots of water, I don't know if that's true or not because I am also a water junkie. I have been consuming between 7-9 bottles of water a day for many, many years now...but maybe that's why it doesn't produce the same results for everyone. My advice would be if you want to try something and it seems safe, give it a try. If it doesn't work for you, at least you tried it and can move on

Did you take any measurements? You could have gained weight but lost inches, muscle weighs more than fat and if your doing kickboxing your building muscle, so that could be it. Plexus works on a health BMI not goal weight number.

They denied the money back guarentee bc you stopped before 60 days? I hate this stuff too. i have majpr GI issues & was sold on hpw great this would be & get my system healthy. I took Bio Cleanse & Probiotic for 10 days, it made me violently ill. I was power puking& sweating profusely. Im hoping to get my money back but sounds like im going to have trouble with getting money back.

You had die off symptoms of Candida that can last for about two weeks. You should power through it. I have three customers and ambassador who went through it too, and now at the end of week 4, have lost 3 and 6 lbs, and combined 12 inches! Don't be discouraged! Hopefully your ambassador has educated you as to what Candida is and how getting it out of your system is crucial!

Somebody is paying these people, and that somebody should pay. I know it's not exactly the situation with MFP, but hopefully this site's owners will keep a close eye on the outcome of the case Edmunds.com v. Humankind Design. Maybe eventually these drive-by marketing companies will be dealt with as they deserve:

Websites that rely on user reviews and ratings often use filters to screen out opinions that are likely to be fraudulent. But the filters can only do so much. This week, Edmunds.com decided to file a lawsuit to get alleged spammers to stop flooding its ratings service with fake reviews of car dealerships.

Edmunds.com v. Humankind Design

I did some research, and Plexus Slim causes Mandibular Defibrillation of the left cortical steroid. Stay away!

All I can say about Plexus Slim is that it has altered my daily routine. While I haven't had significant weight loss or inches loss (five pounds, 10 inches), I have found the motivation to track my calories and to run. In my 35 years, I have never done this (run) or kept up with my calories for more than a week. This has been my routine for a month now. I feel better. I don't have the gastro issues anymore. I know that it's not just Plexus Slim that has helped me benefit, but it is a huge part.

Bad idea. Stick to a moderate calorie deficit and move a little more. Anything else is just

I just got my program in the mail so I begin today but will keep you posted! Friends of mine have been doing this and I swear look half their size. I am so happy for them . Just signed on to fitness pal,my plan is to lose a pound a week. I got a 30 day supply og the shakes and pink powder for water as well as the accelerator. Can not wait!!

I tried plexus and accelerator for 1 week. I felt weird the entire time. Halfway through week it felt like my heart was racing but it went away. At the end of one week I had chest pains and actually went to ER and my blood pressure was through roof and it is usually low. They looked at the product and said it would have been the accelerator. I stopped taking it immediately and felt perfectly fine right away. I sent it all back and got my money back. Will never take it again and it actually puts me off putting anything unknown like this in my body again. It was scary! ! I do know a couple people who swear by it and seems to work for them.

I have read the majority of the posts in this thread. I am a Plexus Ambassador. I started after being on a 16 month weight loss plateau. Regardless of what I did, I was not getting smaller or losing weight. One of my childhood friends introduced me to Plexus. My initial thought was that it couldn't be any good. So, i researched the ingredients, and I was happy with what I saw. For the previous two years, I had made nutrition and label reading my job.
So, I sighed up as an Ambassador, if nothing else to get my products at wholesale. I really love it! My husband started a week after me. I am down over 40 inches since mid-January. My husband has lost 30 lbs. Do we eat perfectly, no. Some people talk about gaining weight with Plexus. It could truly be from a candida overgrowth, A probiotic will alleviate that problem. That candida overgrowth will hold you back from losing weight overall.
No product will work for every single person. Plexus isn't a diet. Its supplementation that helps you control simple carb and sugar cravings. The comment about the Diet Coke and not being related. It is. Aspartame is far sweeter tasting than sugar, and can be a powerful craving. I no longer drink Diet Coke anymore, either, it doesn't taste good to me since being on Plexus.
Some people say it's a waste of money, I disagree. Otherwise, we should all feel that way about Vitamin C, or Mutivitamins, etc.
The Accelerator+.. it does not contain DMAA. The old accelerator did, and as a competent company, they changed the formulation due to customer concern.
Is it an MLM company. Yup. So is Avon, Mary Kay, Origami Owl, Scentsy, and Nerium, to name a few, Does that make it bad? No. It just makes for a fantastic business opportunity for people who wish to live healthier lives and help others do the same.
Is Plexus for everyone, maybe not, But, it has had a great benefit for many people, including myself. I am and educated person that saw an opportunity to improve my life. Not everyone has to love it, but, they also shouldn't be ostracized for using it, either. Hope everyone has a great day!

i just started the plexus slim with the accelorator. so far it is working to crave my diet drink addiction. i am happy about that because i can drink a whole liter a day sometimes. i use and love my fitness pal on my phone and it is helping me to learn about my eating and keeping me accountable. if i can kick the diet habit my life will be better for sure, if it continues to help me i am thankful. if its not working for you then of course dont use it. nothing works for everyone. good luck to everyone and to lifestyle changes!! God Bless

I too have read the majority of the post's here. A lot of negative and a lot of positive.

For the negative responses....

Why do people keep saying stuff like "You don't need supplements/shakes/ diet pills ect to lose weight." ? I understand that some of them do not work at all and they are fads. Some of them do, however, work for a lot of people. If you keep saying that over and over again.... well that is like telling a smoker "You do not need the "patch" or "the gum" or even the perscription med to help you quit smoking... Just quit. Simple." But what you don't realize is these things avert cravings for cigarettes right? Just as Plexus only averts cravings certain foods.

It's an "aid" not an "answer". An lose weight aid, is much like a fitness professional trainer, which is someone who is constantly there to motivate you to lose weight and exersize daily. And... Plexus is an "aid to help reduce cravings and other things." Both of them are really good. You have to pay for both.... Some people might be fully motivated to exersize and actually love it but they can't quite "cut the craving of that chocolate bar" while others might can cut the cravings...but can't stay motivated to do anything else.

Some may not need either. Yes ultimately it is "YOUR" decision to do better and that will make the difference. But having some help along the way may not be a bad thing.

I mean, in that respect, MFP is also just an "aid" to "help" you lose weight. Can you do it without it? Yes. Do most people "feel" they need it? Yes. If they did not it would not be here would it?

Everyone is different.

Just wondered if anyone has ever thought of it that way before.

Scam, scam, scam. Caffeine + fiber + sweeteners = Plexus products. There is not magic pill.

You are correct, however, it never claims to be magic pill. They also encourage and recommend healthy eating and lifestyle.
But again, to each their own.
This has worked amazing for me and others... try not to discourage those who are on it, and really like it.

I will discourage it because it's everything that MyFitnessPal is against. These are non-medical supplements sold under multi-level marketing schemes that are prohibited in Canada and Australia (there's you're "potentially unsafe").
