What is Terry Simpson's ViSalus weight loss challenge based on?
ViSalus is a nutritionally rich protein and vitamin supplement shake mix produced using the highest standards. It is designed to replace a full meal. It contains a concentrated and absorbable blend of non-GMO soy proteins processed to remove fat, lactose, carbohydrates and isoflavones. It contains prebiotics and digestive enzymes to aid digestion. ViSalus also contains a full serving of fiber in a form that will not cause you to have gas. Vitamins and minerals are in their most bioavailable forms so they are easily absorbed by your body. ViSalus is designed as a source of protein and nutrition for body building or weight maintenance. This means that a body builder may use ViSalus as a high quality protein source to feed and build muscles while taking full advantage of its vitamins, minerals and fiber. Our weight loss patients will typically use it as a meal supplement to burn fat and lose weight. But it is our sincere desire that you take up exercise if you already don't. Always remember, weight loss is best accomplished using a combination of diet and exercise.
Why did weight loss doctor Terry Simpson choose ViSalus over other meal supplements?
ViSalus may be the most available protein supplement shake there is. Availability makes ViSalus a tool for weight loss, health and fitness that you can easily plan on using for the rest of your life. For years we have offered more obscure brands of meal replacement protein shakes for our patients to use to lose weight. Shake mixes that were considered to be the best but at a cost that made it impossible for all of our patients to use them. At the time of this writing ViSalus can easily be purchased for a little over $1.50 per meal. That is as inexpensive as it gets for nutrition at this level. Actually that is inexpensive for a meal at any level. Very expensive medical grade protein supplement shakes are only available through medical organizations such as our office. But ViSalus is available everywhere because everyone can sell it. Someone very close to you is selling it right now (you can sell it if you want). So you are not dependent on your local grocery store deciding to stock ViSalus or not. We did the analysis and while this is the least expensive meal replacement shake at this quality level, it is also nutritionally superior to almost all other shakes. It simply offers the highest grade quality for much, much less money. We could not find a better deal for our patients.
Dr. Simpson has done weight loss challenges for a long time
ViSalus 90 day challenges have existed for about ten years. While we could have called this challenge another one of Dr. Simpson's challenges, it only makes sense for us to use the ViSalus 90 day program. Everything you need to use the program has been perfected and in place for years. So why reinvent the wheel?
What exactly IS the ViSalus 90 day challenge?
For 90 days this is how you eat:
Breakfast - Sweet and delicious ViSalus shake or smoothie
Snack - low fat protein, vegetable, fruit or other low glycemic carb
Lunch - Sweet and delicious ViSalus shake or smoothie
Snack - low fat protein, vegetable, fruit or other low glycemic carb
Dinner - full meal (avoiding fats and high glycemic carbs)
It can't get any simpler than this to lose weight. This is why it works - you are eating many times in a day. ViSalus shakes for breakfast and lunch suppress your appetite so the snacks easily satisfy you. Having eaten four times before dinner makes it easier to eat less food and avoid overeating. You can safely eat less at dinner because ViSalus is nutritionally complete. You don't need to depend on one single meal for all of your nutrition. You eat a lot. You actually lose weight by eating all day. ViSalus satisfies your hunger and takes care of balancing your nutrition so you don't depend on one big meal for all of it.
So what did we do during our ViSalus 90 day weight loss challenge?
Well, it started with Terry telling you all about how he began to use ViSalus to lose weight himself. That was certainly a funny story (we've included videos - links are above). Then Jackie talked about how her husband used ViSalus to lose weight. That was pretty interesting because although she is a personal fitness trainer, he does not find pleasure in exercise. Then Jackie, Terry and everybody else opened up and talked and talked and talked about everything. What makes these events particularly nice is the open access to the Doctor and his staff. You can get answers to questions that you might have to pay for anywhere else. You also get to meet and socialize with a lot of interesting people. Some of them are our patients and others are people just looking for ways to improve their health. Through the whole thing we ate desserts and smoothies made with ViSalus. That's what we did most of. We ate more desserts than anything else. So from that we learned that the ViSalus challenge isn't really much of a challenge. It's pretty easy. It's simply a delicious slam dunk for weight loss
