For Those on the Body By Vi bandwagon

Remember they are meal replacement shakes. Very reasonable!

I am doing the body by vi shake thing AND LOVE IT! No I am not shoving it down throats trying to make a buck---but it is working for me.

Let's see:

2 rounded scoops (26g) yet a measly 12g of protein....and it costs $1.65 per shake. That's truly overpriced, pathetic and insulting to be honest. There are tons of meal replacement shakes out there that give far more protein and have better nutritional profiles at half the cost.

This company seems to really pursue and take advantage of those not familiar with protein shakes in general.

Soy is used in Japan solely they do not even have regular milk there.

Umm. Yes, they do have regular milk in Japan made from actual cows. Seriously....

Have been using it for over a year. Bought once and have not paid for the shake mix & my vitamins that I get every month since June 2011. I'm getting 2 free meal per day plus my daily supplements. Tell your health store (or Wal-Mart) you want your protein shakes for free....let me know what they say.

Sometimes I don't do 2 every day and sometimes I don't do even 1 a day. I refuel my body every 3-4hrs and incorporate the Eat Clean lifestyle with Vi. It is not for everyone but I would not discard this simply based off of other people's perception...even mine. Get educated by digging into the research of it yourself. The 90 Day Challenge is simply a goal that is broken down 90 days at a time. Not to be confused with your total goal accomplished within 90 days. 90 days is an obtainable goal the most people can comprehend. If you tell most people that it would take a year to achieve their health goal then they would probably be so discourage they would give up after a few weeks. The idea is to set small goals in several short periods of time. It's all a mind set.

The doctor told me too much protein is a bad thing. The liver cannot break down but so much protein daily. Too much protein can ultimately lead to liver failure. "Eating excessive amounts of protein can and will put you in Negative Nitrogen Balance - and can cause uric acid retention and kidney, bladder and liver problems. Forget man's so-called logic and find your own metabolic needs - Vince Gironda, aka "The Iron Guru."

Not all protein is treated equally just as all calories is not treated equally. Get your numbers checked by a professional. And as someone above stated..."Let's agree to disagree" Go out and buy what you want, just research the products you use. A good product should be able to withstand scrutiny. So do the research and decide for yourself We are all here with the goal to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Don't be nasty just because someones opinion doesn't coincide with yours. People Who Say It Cannot Be Done Should Not Interrupt Those Who Are Doing It... cliche I know, but true. Yes, I promote the 90 Day Challenge. Before anyone rips through my post with their fangs, note that I am simply stating how it works for me and what my research has found. I am in no way trying to sell you the product.

I have been on the BBV challenge and promoting it for a year....I haven't personally had any issues nor have my clients...actually none of my team or cross line has had issues. It isn't just a "weight loss"solution, this is a LIFESTYLE CHANGE and you must be willing to make that change. You have to "want" to make the change in your life and diet, and without commitment and dedication at its fullest you will not get the success you were hoping for; which would lead to negative comments and posts about a product such as this one.

Way to drag a moldy oldy out to get your promotion in! High five!

I started using Body By Vi on May 23rd and I am on day 26 of my first 90 day challenge. I have lost 29 pounds since May 23rd. Sure, I am having that shake for breakfast and shake for lunch, but I am also very interested in changing my lifestyle. I work out almost every day now, doing 60 minutes on the elliptical we got on Craigslist and actually have started eating healthy. We grill our meats for every meal to lessen the fat content and instead of having pasta or bread as a side at dinner we have a huge pile of veggies and I have replaced soda and sugary drinks with water. Sure, I splurge every now and then, twice a month we have pizza and every once in a while I split a soda at the movies with the family, but my calorie intake has dropped dramatically and I am not starving myself because the foods I now eat, for the very very most part, are super low calorie, like spinach, onions, lettuce, squash, tomatoes, etc. So, although I know that I would be losing weight even if I were not using the shakes, the shakes are great because they really do fill me up and give me all the vitamins and nutrients my body needs. I do not sell Body By Vi, I'm just a consumer. But I totally believe in this product. It's amazing. I am working hard to change my lifestyle, and am doing great at it, but I get to do it with two yummy strawberry shakes and faster than I would be with just the hard work alone. You should try it before you knock it. You might surprise yourself.

So you are exercising and eating better......must have been the overpriced shake.

I have no desire to try Body By Vi. It doesn't seem like a healthy, long-term option.

They actually DO work.My friend is a promoter for this Product and I have Met MANY of her clients that are losing weight fast.But she includes a meal plan for them and weekly support.I drink one Occasionally.What I can say is that its not as gross as other protein shakes...

Uh huh.

Well, yeah, they work like any other drink or program would if you're depriving yourself for calories. Why does someone need to pay for an overpriced shake to do that? Make your own way cheaper, or just adjust your diet, and get your support here. Oh, but wait, that doesn't line the MLM pockets...
