2. How is this different than the ViSalus TSS™ program?
This program combines the best of ViSalus. It utilizes key components of the Trim Slim Shape™ Program, combined with energizing ViSalus NEURO™, and health supporting Omega Vitals for essential oil support from the Vi-pak®. For those that want all the life enhancing components of the Vi-pak, we have a simple ‘upgrade’ option that can easily be added for a discount, too.

3. What is in the kit?
There are three kits in the Body by Vi™ program.

A. The most preferred kit is the “Transformation” Kit, which gives you the best value and the most product and tools to help you towards your total body transformation. This kit combines 2 pouches of Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake Mix (60 servings for 2 meals per day, for 30 days), 1 bottle of Vi-Slim® to help burn fat and support lean muscle, 1 box of Vi-Trim® to control hunger, 3 of our most popular Health Flavors for variety, convenience and flavor, Omega Vitals to provide essential oil benefits, and 2 boxes of ViSalus NEURO™ (1 of each flavor) to assist in energy and hydration. The kit also includes a simple log on process and free access to the Vi-Net™ Health Membership site for 30 days, to provide tips, tools recipes, exercise videos and more.

B. The “Shape” Kit is for someone looking to use the Vi-Shape® shake from our TSS Program to help them slim down or tone up. This kit combines 2 Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake mix pouches to provide 60 balanced meals over 60 days. It also includes two boxes of Health Flavor Mix-Ins for variety and nutritional support, along with the Vi-Net™ Health Membership site for 30 days, to provide tips, tools, recipes, exercise videos and more.

C. The “Balance” Kit is for someone that wants to embark on the journey to healthier eating habits. This kit has 1 Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake mix to provide 30 balanced meals over 30 days. It also includes 1 box of our Health Flavor Mix-Ins for variety and added nutrition, along with the Vi-Net™ Health Membership site for 30 days, to provide tips, tools recipes, exercise videos and more.

4. Does purchasing a kit provide more value?
Yes. Because we want everyone to experience the life enhancing transformation, the “Transformation” Kit has the largest value by saving you over $123 off of normal retail prices from ordering the products individually. The “Shape” Kit saves you over $56 from normal retail, and the Shape kit saves over $32 from normal retail prices.

5. Is it expensive?
No. In fact, it can SAVE you money. The program provides 2 full meals, and all the nutrition you need to be healthy and help transform your body. The cost per day for the program is less than many people spend on ONE fast food lunch, or breakfast on the go. And it provides much more nutrition and health support, for maximum transformation.

6. Do I need to exercise?
The program is designed to help you lose weight, even if you don’t exercise. However, to really transform your body and get in great shape, we do recommend exercise. This is why we provide two types of exercise plans – one for the person just getting started, and one for the person that wants a firmer physique. There are also instructional videos online for more information and education on how to exercise.

7. How do I maintain my weight?
It’s simple! Once you have reached your goal, transition to our “Core” Kit, and save $105 off normal retail prices. The Core kit provides one 30 Serving Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake Mix to help provide balanced nutrition to start your day. Starting your day with the shake for breakfast helps fuel the body, and helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels. The “Core” Kit also includes one box of our Chocolate Cardia Care Health Flavor Mix-In, and one box of Banana Energy Charge Health Flavor Mix-In for added flavor, variety, and nutritional support. There are 2 boxes of ViSalus NEURO™ (one of each flavor) to help you maintain healthy energy and stamina. We then combined this with the life enhancing Vi-pak® for cellular support and defense against aging free radicals, with omega rich oils, glutathione, grape seed extract and more to help you live healthier, and live younger. Once you are at your desired goal, this “Core” Kit can help keep you vitalized.

8. Can I buy the products separately, and not in the kit?
For the best value, the kits provide savings from $32-$123 off normal retail prices. Should you wish to add more products, you can always do so.

9. Can I use only water for the shake?
The shake is great mixed in water for a low calorie, nutrition rich snack. For meals, we suggest that it be blended with non-fat milk, or soy milk for extra protein and nutrient support.

10. Who should take this product?
Anyone that desires to have a better shape, to lose weight, to get fit, or to build lean muscle!

What the heck is Zumba?

Well… when you take a Zumba class, essentially you get to do some wild and crazy dancing in the morning!
I can’t imagine where else you could dance to Latin, African, hip hop, belly dance and trance music, all within an hour, and NOT end up with a hangover!

Zumba is a high energy aerobic workout done to a fusion of Latin and International Music.

You’ll start to take a Zumba class for the health benefits – you’ll continue because it will become the highlight of your workouts! Its truly a fun workout that leaves you feeling really happy!

Find a Zumba class if you think exercise is boring – a guarantee you will change the way you think about fitness! Try Zumba and you will want to work out, will love working out, and get hooked. You’ll achieve long term benefits while having a blast in one exhilarating hour of body-energizing,caloric-burning,awe-inspiring movements that will totally keep you hooked!

Day two of the challenge almost didn’t happen.

You see, I’m a home based business owner and have a major aversion to alarms. Don’t like em, don’t use em. No alarm clocks, don’t wear a watch – you get the picture. I prefer to wake with my kid’s smiles, or on my own time…

Well, this morning ‘my own time’ was 9:26 and I needed to leave the house by 9:40 to get to my class ON TIME.

I got up, kinda showered and got dressed – in 8 minutes.

Then I made my Vi-Shake in the blender in about 3 minutes (you cannot say you don’t have time for this!)

Blueberry Banana Super Energy Shake
1 cup plain almond milk
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 frozen banana
2 scoops Trim Slim Shake mix
1 Banana Energy Charge Shape-up

Yum!

Hopped in the car and…

I totally made it through a ‘body flex’ class at the YMCA.
It’s a full strength training class that targets every major muscle group in one hour.

Did a little swimming in the afternoon too, for good measure.

Fantastic day!

Tomorrow… Zumba! Lovin it!

I’m undertaking the 90 Day Body by Vi Challenge to reach the fitness goals that have been just out of reach ever since I had my second child!

I’m a 34 year old mother of 2 young children, and I thought for sure I’d always be stuck at 136 lbs. No matter how much I worked out or thought I was watching what I ate, I just couldn’t get below that 136lbs! I blamed it on my metabolism changing after the second baby, or my age.

~ But just 45 days ago I started on ViSalus’ 1 shake a day program and plugged into their health tracking tools and have dropped down to 124lbs!

I have just 4 more pounds to lose to reach my weight loss goal and I absolutely will do that easily over the next 90 days. More importantly, I intend to increase my lean body mass – that is, increase muscle mass and lose inches! I’ll do that with the Transformation Kit and a workout regimen of 2 days of cardio and 2 days weight training, with a liberal dose of swimming for good measure.

Support me on my challenge! Better yet, join me and reach your own goals!

Day 1 of the challenge, and I almost didn’t make it to my Kickboxing class! I could easily have rolled right back over in bed when I realized I had less than 20 minutes to get ready and make my shake… but, well, watch for yourself!

Now, I have an amazing advantage in that I have an incredible YMCA. Over the coming weeks, I’ll share with you the variety of classes I’ll take to reach my goals.
