I find it funny that someone can come on here and say, oh I use the 30 day shred, or the 17 Day Diet, but she gets hammered for saying what she's doing and is working for her. Thats garbage... Just saying! I do use the Body By Vi product and have since March. I lost 26 lbs and 27 inches... it works! But thats not why I am sticking up for her.. I would do the same if someone were trying to promote something else

No problem here, she doesn't have a link to any site, her post doesn't contain anything that says buy from so and so, I also don't see a problem with it, yes only having 3 posts is low, but so what, is she has x number of posts than it would be ok? Sorry maybe a little cranky from finishing an 11hr shift, but her post title says it all, what did you think it would contain?

First, you don't look like you need to lose weight. Second you don't mention how much weight you lost and how long it took or even how long you have kept it off. Personally I was not interested in a quick fix, I wanted something that would help me make better choices and not have to do without food. I like to eat dinner with my family, not cook for them and drink a shake while they are eating food. I think those shakes are just a temporary thing because it is not good for your body to have nothing but 2 shakes a day for the rest of your life. I have 2 family members that have/are using those shakes. One lost 20 lbs, went off the 2 a day shake & put back on even more then she originally lost. This weekend she just start back on the shakes again. That is not a healthy diet. The other family member uses it for her breakfast meal but doesn't really make good food choices the rest of the day and it doesn't look like she's lost anything. Me on the other hand, will not even attempt those shakes because I think it's too much protein for your system to handle. Instead, I am using this, My Fitness Pal and have lost 22 lbs already and do not feel deprived of the foods I like. In fact, because of this tool I found that food choices I thought were not good choices turn out to be the better choice sometimes! FYI, I went through the Christmas holiday and didn't gain any weight and I was able to eat all the great food my family members brought to the table and not feel guilty or like I was cheating. Good luck to you all whichever method you choose.

I've been reading and not posting, there are many people out there like me. I look here for inspiration and support!!! Whether I look like I need to lose weight or whether I am here simply looking for support to maintain a healthy lifestyle shouldn't matter. I love this website for ideas and most importantly support and inspiration.

However, I do notice from time to time there are people who here love to jump on people and I don't think this is the place for judgement or negativity. If Body by Vi worked for you, congrats!!!! You may have motivated one person to try something new and that might be the one thing that changes their mindset or gets the scale moving which is something many of us need to kickstart our goals. I don't see an advertisement here either, just someone adding to my circle of support!!! Congrats to anyone who loses weight, gets healthy in mind and body by reading someone else's success:)

^ I agree.
