Has anyone tried Visalus Protien shakes?



Recommended Posts

has anyone tried the Visalus protien shakes. I have been taking them for a bout a month and they are REALLY good. Mixed with soy milk and 1tsp coffee and ice tastes just like a frappacino from starbucks. I drank them twice a day for the 2 weeks before my suregery and lost 8lbs and then have been drinking them - much smaller portions though- since my surgery last week and I've lost another 8 lbs since my surgery.

I did. It is the most disgusting thing I have ever drank. So bland and bitter I don't know how anyone would have the nerve to even take them.

Yes it is MLM and it's not that it's bad that it is an MLM business, but if you're going to be in that kind of business your products should be top notch and easy to take. First the shakes, with or without flavors, they're HORRIBLE! Another thing are the products to take for the Transformation pack. You have to take 10 separate products! I don't mind taking a few but I'm not a pill popper or human disposal for products. Definately NOT worth the money nor the results you probably get out of it.

me too. I'm not crazy about them when I have mixed them with Water, yogurt or skim milk, but the key for me is mixing it with soy milk - very vanilla or chocolate are my favorites. They are really good that way!

I use the almond milk or a fruited yogurt and just a little ice to make them cold.

Yes, they are AWESOME!!!!!

Try 8 Oz Almond Milk,

2 Scoops of Body By Vi powder

1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1 Tablespoon of Honey

6 ice cubes and blend

SNICKERDOODLE...is it so good...no aftertaste or grit...this is my 2'nd week on them.

Also, the BUTTERFINGER

8 Oz Almond Milk

2 Teaspoons of Instant sugar free butterscotch pudding mix (dry)

1 Tablesspoon of Reduced Fat Peanut Butter

6 ice cubes

It is really the only Protein shake I have found that I like....I did the muscle milk that first two weeks post op and now if I even see in in the isle at Wal-mart I want to puke!!! Ha Ha

The girl I bought it from gave me 5 or 6 pages of recipes....I have liked all that I have tried so far.

Good Luck!!

Any shake over the counter can be good if you mix up all the recipes mentioned. Drink Visalus straight wit milk without anything and it's the most disgusting thing on the market. Visalus products is basically overpriced hype. There's really substance to their claim.

I'm just saying I like them. If you don't that is OK. For me it is the only one I have tried that I liked. Believe me, when your starting weight was 357 you have tried your share of shakes over the years. LOL

Good luck!

I tried them and they do taste good but IMO, they don't have enough Protein in them for a Lap Band patient. My other problem with them is they are soy protein. I have thyroid problems and I was told by my doctors to steer clear of soy and use whey protein instead.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
