Why I chose Visalus to help with my weight loss for 2012
So why I chose visalus to help reach my goals for 2012?
With the new year barely starting up many people out there have probably chosen some sort of weight loss goal to try and obtain for the new year. If you have gone to your local gym lately you’ve noticed how packed the gym is with all these new people. At this time of year everyone is eager to hit that goal. The unfortunate thing about that is eventually most will fail to reach that goal. Some will even be worst than when they started the year. Then as the year passes they opt in again to eventually “try” to lose that weight and then some more for the next year. Pretty soon you start to see an eventual cycle where these people are simply spinning their wheels.
For 2012 my number goal was to hit my weight goal of 200 pounds. I regularly go to the gym so the gym wasn’t the problem for me but it was the diet. It is definately true that the gym is only a small portion of weight loss. I knew that in order for me to have a different 2012 in weight loss I had to change my diet. So to the internet I went to figure out what I wanted to do.
I ran through a bunch of different things out there from cleanses to taking drops etc… You name it EVERY single weight loss technique or gimmick is out there, especially in internet land. This made it very difficult to chose what I wanted to do.
So a couple weeks into the new year I start hitting the gym again because I couldn’t go for 2 months (torn calf took me away from any activity). I knew I had to start eating better and every couple hours instead of eating a couple big meals a day. So I started doing this but no real weight loss for me. I wasn’t mad at all because I knew it would take time and being out for 2 months certainly didn’t help as well.
Then I get an email from a friend talking about an opportunity, normally I just turn the other way but this thing called a 90 day challenge caught my attention.
I kept an open mind watched a couple videos and it made sense to me. It was then that I decided
Why I chose visalus to help with my weight loss
Reason # 1 The 90 day challenge is a great way to start my diet.
If I didn’t get results in 90 days no harm because it was only a short 3 month span. I can always adapt to something totally different if I wanted to.

Reason # 2 It would actually save me money
The shakes totaled to be less than 2 dollars per shake. When I go to work I at least buy lunch which cost me anywhere from 6 to 10 dollars at a minimum. There are times that I also buy breakfast which also puts me down another 5 bucks. So 5 days a week I was spending between 50 to 75 a week just on food for work! Now that’s a very low estimate because I know I can have weeks when I spend double that amount just on food alone. The fact that I was actually saving money alone was another no brainer.
Reason # 3 Why I chose Visalus: It’s a lifestyle change
By drinking 2 shakes a day to replace my meals is a true lifestyle change. I was hesitant because I’m a meatasorus rex. I love food and simply drinking a shake to replace meals didn’t sound like it would be enough. But boy was I wrong. A couple of days into this 90 day challenge and I’ve noticed how much this shakes actually help me feel fulfilled not stuffed. That was a problem I’ve always had with eating because I would be eating something good then tend to over do it. But with the shakes I feel satisfied and not craving more food.
These shakes makes it a lot easier for me to always be on the go. Since I still have a job I have to workout real early and get ready for work. So I don’t really have time to make breakfast every morning. So these shakes are perfect because it takes less than 5 minutes to get my shake ready for breakfast as well as my lunch shake.
Why I chose Visalus Reason # 4: IT WORKS!
Yup that’s right it freaking works. I am now in day 5 of my challenge and I feel excellent. I haven’t felt this great in a long time. I have more energy througout my day and I don’t have that sluggish feeling that I do when I eat too much food. PLUS in 5 days of the challenge I have now lost 10 pounds which puts me at a weight of 222. This makes my goal of 200 very attainable for this year. I can’t remember how many times I’ve put that goal down for the year but this year is the most confident I’ve felt to getting to that target weight. I feel that I can definately attain that goal in this 90 day challenge. Now of course it’s still very early on in my challenge and I will definately go through ups and downs but Visalus has taken the guess work out of a lot of things.
