People really need to understand Isagenix before bashing it. Here is the thing, people are always afraid of the unknown, so the way to get over that is to face it and try it. I went to an Isagenix siminar in Arizona back in Feb, and it was awesome!! I learned so much more about this product that I can t even imagine ever stop using it. You have nothing to lose by trying it, because you get your money back if you dont like it, truthfully its a no brainer.

Kane-
I merely contend that there are healthy alternatives that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg. If someone has enough discipline to follow an Isagenix plan then they should have enough discipline to just throw out the junk food and stick to healthy food and hit the gym a couple times a week. I don't think it would "hurt" to use Isagenix but it doesn't make much financial sense to me. So it goes.
I believe that a lot of Traineo users (including myself) are tired of people trying to market products on here. The marketing schemes already infest the search engines and late-night tv commercials. This is supposed to be a forum for open discussion and advice, not a place for business.

Like any other program, Isagenix is a tool that you use to accomplish your goals. It isn't going to work for everyone. No product, system, program, etc is a guaranteed fix for everybody. If you use it correctly, with a commitment to success, you will most likely find that success. Personally, considering my current weight and height, I don't need to lose a pound, but I continue using a variety of the Isagenix products because I believe they provide me with necessary nutrients, and assist my body in performing its functions correctly. Revitalized is the word I use to describe how I feel after just over a year. In addition, my association with Isagenix has helped me refocus on a healthier lifestyle. I am a success story.

Quoting: Linaeve ... Go back and check the constitution before you quote it...
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
I don't think peoples opinion on weight loss is included in that.
Sorry, it just bugs me when people quote "Freedom of Speech" for everything when it in fact does NOT include everything.. Off topic but still felt a need to mention it.
Linaeve, I understand your sentiment, but there is no singular phrase that I detest more than "what right do you have..."
There is no such thing as a "right" to free speech, only the right not to infringe on another man's liberty by stopping his expression. True, I have no right to speak evil, just as the intrinsic rights of man do not permit you to stop me from expressing such evil.
You cannot enforce me into silence, by whose authority? That is the purpose of the Constitution, not to permit man to express himself without fear of being restricted, but to restrict the man's ability to censor fellow man.
The caviat here is "so long as you do not infringe on the liberty of another." Because there can be no right to censor someones freedom, there is no right to slavery and no right to impose your will on another. So is Saved by Kane really infringing on the liberty of Dave here? Come on now. This is an internet forum. Opinions, bad language, and chest-beating is prevalent. If we don't like it, we don't have to read it. But trying to trot out the Constitution in environments like this is just ridiculous.
Besides, it is a private forum owned and operated by a non-government, so since they own the property on which we post, they can pretty much say what goes and what doesn't. As long as we are guests on their forum, they choose the rules by which we post.

Bour.. I think there is some confusion.. In my last post on here, I wasn't trying to limit anyones right to state things or not. I was just pointing out that someone was trying to state "freedom of speech" and quote the constitution but was not doing so in correct contex.
It was not directed towards any other details regarding the topic.

True that. I agree with you about the selling nonsense. This is a thred for people who USE Isagenix and should be used as a support tool ONLY.
We (Isagenix) users, however are being lambasted on the regular for the few that are here to "sell" it. I also see your point about throwing out the junk food as well...that is all part of this system. It is designed to get people healthy and to detoxify your body.
The primary function is not weight loss.
Have a good one.

Kane, you are correct i have just finished my Isagenix program and its BS ! Its basically a liquid diet ! You need a lot of will power and not to eat and it doesn't at all suppress your hunger ! And who isnt going to loose weight if you don't eat once a week! IT REALLY TELS YOU "YOU CANT EAT FOR ONE DAY ONCE A WEEK" is that even healthy I DONT THINK SO. It really is a huge PYRAMID scheme. I really regret ever buying this product. I know I could have saved my money and just bought Slim Fast or any other liquids to supplement my meals. IF ANY ONE IS LOOKING INTO THIS STAY AWAY.....THIS IS NOTHING BUT SKETCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please just believe in your self and do it on your own. BUT if you can throw money in the trash this is a good program for you ....oh yeah and they ask for a life time commitment by pressing you to buy life supplements ...WTF is that... just stop eating fast food...dont eat anything fried... and exercises.. basically make sure you do not intake more then you out take....DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT >>>>>>IT IS A LIE<<<<<<<<<<<<<< and yes i did follow the ridicule's regiment and lost 12lbs but would never do it again its just to simple and you can do it on your own....

[Rob....
Please don't agree with me in one sentance and then turn around and say that the product doesn't work. You are wrong. I'm sorry if someone forced you to get involved in a way that didn't work for YOU.
You are the exception and NOT the rule.
To compare Isagenix to Slim fast is INSULTING and you are not doing the product any justice what so ever.
quote=seis29]>>>>>>IT IS A LIE<<<<<<<<<<<<<< and yes i did follow the ridicule's regiment and lost 12lbs but would never do it again its just to simple and you can do it on your own....[/quote]
This statement above shows how redickulous you are....It's a lie and you just happened to lose 12 lbs.? Any clue how retarded that sounded?
IT IS NOT A WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEM!!!!
I will kindly ask you not to be a moron.

I have a suggestion for all you Isagenix folks: why not start up a private group so you can discuss your plan and progressings in peace? I reckon it'd beat the constant zenlessness of all this rebutting, non?
Just a thought...
peace,
M.

Heh.. well... I'm on here because as a women i'm naturally drawn to drama lol. Plus people like you facinate me. So I figure, I keep poking at you and get reactions out of you and frankly it keeps me entertained.
Quoting: Adamevolution Go for a walk, get laid, stop stessing out about what Isagenix users are talking to EACH OTHER about!
Well. I go on walks often and get laid usually twice a day, tmi? oh well. lol no matter what you hear me type on here, trust me, i'm not stressing out about you guys. Just keeping myself entertained.
Quoting: Adamevolution I LOVE your Avatar! Is that a want more energy drink, by Isagenix? LOL
As for my avatar, nope... not any sort of energy drink. It was a margarita on the plane on my way to Florida.. Would have been healthier for me if it was an energy drink, but at the time, margarita was more tempting. lol

I got focused on my weight at the late age of 30 after haveing two kids. I made sure to eat right and I started yoga doing it everyday. My body looked awesome!! I was not useing Isagenix at this time, now 8 years later, I still eat good and do yoga, but for some reason at the age 36 which was two years ago, I started to gain some weight, didnt under stand why. I was just about to try Ultra 90, because I so wanted to lose the 8 pounds I gained, but then my friend told me about Isagenix, and I learned it wasnt about what I was eating, it was about that my female body wasnt getting certain things it needed to function properly. Isagenix is a dream come true for me. As a mothere of two boys, I dont have time to think about making my own cleansing drink. THIS PRODUCT ALSO HELPED MY ACNE.

.... I'm sorry.. I don't think I can talk to you anymore.... Patron is meant to be drank in shots or straight.. To talk of ruining it with ice and margarita mix is blasphemy!!!! lol...
Mmm.. Tequila... I still have a little Patron at home.. I should drink that tonight. Tequila is definately my drink of choice. I prefer just to take shots of it. But on the plane that wasn't an option for me so I just went for the margaritas
I'm a cheap date (well besides the Patron), I drink cheap beer... Coors Light! Haha.. I get trashed on for drinking it, but it tastes decent to me and helps keep my buzz on, so that works for me.
