I found this site a year ago but never really used it. I just started using it daily a couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it. It keeps up with everything so we don't have to. I love how it calculates not only how many calories I need, but also carbs, fat, and protein. Can't believe I didn't start using this sooner. Oh and I am down 5 pounds in 9 days on the Body By Vi 90 day challenge! And I was impressed to find out myfitnesspal actually has my shake mix in their food list. :)

Oh and my name is Genean and I am from eastern KY. I have lost 35 pounds on the Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge. I am a customer as well as a distributor, so hit me up if you want more info. My goal is to lose 30 more pounds by summertime! Let's do this!

    Finally some other Visalus people! I'm only doing one shake a day as I find I'm way too hungry after long workouts then I eat everything in sight. Any tips or tricks to help me with 2 shakes a day but not lose all my energy while exercising? My distributor convinced me to sign up and haven't heard a peep from him since :(

    Hi Ladies,

    My shipment should be in today of my shakes so I dont know what to expect. @ Genean you was down 35lbs in 90 days? I was a little confused by what you was saying, sorry. I need ALL the help I can get. A friend of mines got the shakes told me about it and I signed up lol....

    Congratulations on starting the challenge! My advice is drink 2 shakes a day! If you want to see weight loss you need to be doing 2 a day. Here is how your day should go:

    A shake for breakfast.

    2-3 hours later a healthy snack...(this can be fruit, a granola bar, a 100 calorie pack, etc)

    2 hours later your second shake.

    2-3 hours later another healthy snack

    3 hours later dinner

    2 hours later another snack

    The best thing to do is to not let yourself get hungry...and make sure you are getting 1200 calories a day at least...You dont want to go into fat storage mode...Body By Vi works amazingly if done correctly...

    I am sorry your sponsor is not helping you. I created a group on here today called Body By Vi Challengers...Feel free to join.. I plan to start posting daily and getting more people involved :)

    Jking826,

    Yes 35 pounds is how much I am down! Congrats on joining! This is the best thing I have ever tried. I have done WW, Atkins, and others and this is the only thing I have been able to stick with! Best of luck!

    I love it too. I checked out Sparks People but it's food database can't compare to MFP and it is so confusing to use. I love MFP's ease of use. I've been here for over a year and will be here as long as they are. Thanks MFP>:heart:
