Body by Vi

I can not say my weight loss has been from Vi but I usually only due 1 a day. I do however have coworkers who are working the challenge program and doing awesome! My reason to use it is I am a diabetic who hates to eat first thing in the morning and work 62 miles from my home. I drink one on the way to work and it helps keep my sugars under control. It is great tasting. You can mix it with milk, soy, almond etc. OJ, coconut juice etc.

Hopefully you don't gain all the weight back when you start on real food again.... Good luck.

ViSalus isn't just another quick fix, it works. The shakes are not traditional "diet" shakes like the other junk on the market. It's a nutritional shake that is meant to provide you with all the essential nutrients you need to fuel your body accordingly. Add this to a healthy eating plan and you're bound to succeed. As with anything, do something consistently for 30 days and it becomes habit. After 90 days, it's a lifestyle change. (Hence, the 90 Day Challenge)


What exactly is in the ViSalus Shake Mix?:drinker:

i use the shakes occasionally. they have helped me cut out fast food and soda. however if you do not change your eating habits along with drinking the shakes they will not be beneficial. you have to say to yourself if i stopped doing the shakes "would i be able to maintain a healthy lifestyle without them". I am down over 40lbs since first trying the shakes but i also eat very healthy as well.
