Has Anyone Tried "Beachbody Portion Control Container Kits?"

I saw an infomercial for these while at the gym this morning. I know I could probably create my own because they reveal what sizes each container is, but I wanted to be legit and use theirs since it was they who gave me the idea.

Has anyone tried them? Do they work? Are they obsolete with MyFitnessPal? Let me know what you think.

    Why when you can use a scale?

    Don't feel pressured to purchase containers that have been around for decades just because it was on an infomercial. Other types of infomercials sell plates with each section labeled for carbs, proteins, fats, vegetables, etc.
    It's NOT the container that makes the difference. It's what you're putting in the container and what container size you're using.
    I believe the kit is $99 (not overly expensive), but Tupperware with SEVERAL more containers would be more cost effective. Yes, it does come with an exercise guide and guidance on how to pack food, but that's basically free online.
    Not dissuading you from the purchase. Just letting you see that you don't have to spend as much to attain the same materials and info.

    Their basis on weight loss is the same as any other program: CICO
