Maybe they think you are trying to sell shakes and maybe they think I'm trying to sell books as both our posts got zero replies.

Guess so.

i dont want to do the shakes as weight watchers is working for me . but i sure would love to know how it goes for you if you wouldnt mind letting me know hugs jo

Wishing you well with this, but, I don't believe in weight loss methods that involve anything other than just making healthy food choices, learning portion control and having a regular exercise routine. Of course just drinking a weight loss shake will make you lose weight, but, the real test is keeping it off.

I really do wish you the best though.

You need to research visalus sciences because it was formulated by a doctor.The amount of nutrients you are getting from the shakes is far more than people take in on a regular day bases. We don't eat our fruits and veg's anymore we are not getting the trace minerals and vitamins we are suppose too.

But, that's my point, adamrach - I think an important part of losing weight isn't just to see the numbers on the scale drop, but to learn to make healthy food choices. Getting back to incorporating fruits and veggies as a regular part of our diet is part of learning to make healthier food choices.

If the shakes work, that can only be a good thing. I'm just saying that you can't use the shakes forever. At some point, you're going to have to eat your fruits and veggies if you want to get enough fruits and veggies into your diet. Plus, I'm sure those shakes can't be cheap.

I do agree with your comment about the trace minerals and vitamins, but, those can be replaced with a simple vitamin, which I'm sure a lot cheaper than the shakes.

I guess my point here is that we just need to learn to make good food choices. A shake isn't the answer. The answer is getting to the root of why we're emotional eaters and use food to fix or try to deal with non-food issues.

Of course the diet industry is going to try to make us believe that, left to our own devices, there's no way we can succeed at losing weight by making healthy food choices and addressing our food addiction issues; their shake or their pill or their book or their fat blaster is the answer. That's why the diet industry has made a gazillion dollars selling us their products - and we're getting bigger with every passing year!

I really do wish you well, hon. I really do. Just don't forget that, at some point, bodybyvi will be out of the picture and it will all be bodyadamrach. The great thing about that is though, your program won't cost one penny.

Hugs,

Well the 90 day challenge is just meant to be that 90 days, some people who have more weight to lose may do several times. But the shakes are not meant to be a lifetime thing. Many people will stay on a shake day after the challenge just to have energy and replace a meal and get nutrients. I grew up vegetarian so I understand what you are saying about needing to eat right. I have gained weight from being on steriods from having a autoimmune disorder. Sometimes I can't swallow regular meals so I use this to help me with the swallowing issues and get nutrients. :)

You make a good point about the nutrients, hon. Especially when we're so focused on "...I gotta lose weight, I gotta lose weight, I gotta lose weight...", I think we can forget how important the trace minerals and nutrients are, so, if the shakes are full of those, that can only be a good thing.

Wishing you all the best. Oh, and by the way - your picture is adorable. : )

Hugs,
Janice : )

Thank you Janice, you made my day, I have struggled through a horrible day of treatments and I have one more to go tommorow, and I just feel the pits and feel so bloated and puffed up from the meds. :)
