Body by vi is it a fad?

[jewelgirl 12]

As anyone tried the system body by vi? It consists of shakes, Cereal, etc. One of my friends is pushing the product so I am interested, but is it a scam? If someone forces a product down my throat I tend to resist and wonder why they are promoting it so much. Maybe because they are selling it? Is it just Protein Shakes? I am 9 months post op gastric sleeve, down 76 lbs, but I still have another 30 to go. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

I tried the shakes before my sleeve. They were ok but I obviously didn't stick with it. I don't recall how much Protein they had but you could increase the protein by mixing the powder with skim milk instead of Water but this also increases the calories. The shakes are best blended with milk and ice. I prefer convenience. I like the Premiere Protein Shakes from Sam's the best.

Thanks! I'm actually using that Protein too.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Lots of those supplement diets use caffeine to burn more calories but it makes you jittery and grouchy and obviously stops working when you stop taking it. You will be better off sticking to your plan.

The shakes have a nice flavour but are over priced and do not have a high enough Protein content. Your better off sticking with your Premier Protein. More protein and I a assuming at a better cost. Just my opinion. It was just over double the cost for me to take visalus in comparisionwiththe unflavoured powder I use now and my current powder has almost double the protein

I have a friend doing body by Vi. She has just completed 90 days and lost 64 lbs!! No lie she looks fab! Yes she did have a LOT to lose that's probably why she lost so quickly but maybe it's worth a shot. She never had any WLS. I was just banded and I plan to first do Atkins/low carb as it has worked in the past for me.

My nut said if I have the shakes I can use them. But I wouldn't buy them again.... They are pricy and you can find a good alternative.
