Talked with a coworker this morning that is doing the full thing now with all the pills.

Told me that he has done just the meal plan and it was pretty significant results.

Not a big supplement person, but I am thinking about the meal plan.

I imagine it probably does work.

I also imagine a clean diet and exercise works too, and you don't have to enter into a cult and buy a shite ton of products going that route either.

It made me feel better and my digestive system was definitely on a much better schedule. But that can be attributed to following the healthy diet. The pills are all things you could just pick up at GNC really. Its just fish oils and stuff. The cleanse really just gives you the shits for a few days then loads you up with fiber to get you back on track. I lost about 6 lbs, but fell off the wagon due to drinking. 24 days is a long time to not drink and to have planned meals and pill packs with you all the time.

It works, my wife and friends have done it and on average they have lost 10 to 15 pounds if not more. However, they complimented with a cleaner diet and exercise.

Be prepared to hang out by the toilet. Hahaha

You'll notice results and then gain it all back after you finish. Then you'll just wonder why you spent $180+ on some 24 day fad diet. Don't worry though, the Advocare cult will be here to give you the recited propaganda. Tell you how the products are created/approved by a panel of doctors and so on and so forth, but then can't tell you why it isn't FDA approved since it's such a great medicinal breakthrough. Oh and don't mention to them that it's a pyramid scheme either, they don't like that and freak out. Poor souls don't realize that they are being fooled by some $2 accounting trick.

Just finished it and ended up losing 15 lbs. However I continued eating right after and lost 5 more and still going. I found that the meal plan was the most important part. It severely cuts your calorie intake AND virtually eliminates any carbs. The supplements did help curb the hunger but I really found them more of a hassle since I had to take them 30 minutes before a meal. I really used it as a kick-starter for eating healthier. No way I'm going to give up on something I just spent $200 on. Save some money and go buy some fish oil and vitamin packs at GNC. Then cut you meal portions, eat proteins and veggies for you big meals, eat healthy snacks throughout the day and that's the program. They make some good stuff that's sold individually but the 24-day challenge is a just a really good marketing ploy.

No, but I did do the 15 day Nature's Secret Cleanse & Flush - I was in Smoothie King and am a terrible impulse shopper. Lost about 5 lbs but was also eating less.

Did it last year and it does work. However, if you want to save money, get some fish oil pills, eat a paleo diet and start working out. Thats really all it is. Eat lean proteins and vegetables. Cut out the carbs.

I've always wondered what is the plan one has after doing a bitch diet like this. Like, what happens on day 25+? Or do they just plan on being on that shite forever? I don't get it.

why humans continue to pay excessive prices for diet information that is readily available and FREE to them in the internet is beyond amazing.

I don't do it but I am fully for these types of diets and supplement companies. Yes, you could do all this stuff yourself for free but some people need to have a structured plan and be invested into it for it to work.

Overpriced Pyramid scam designed to suck you in. Proceed with caution.

i was going to do it, and i ordered it, and then i read the diet. Its basically a paleo/protein diet for 24 days. Then advocare mixes their products in with it. In my opinion, you lose the weight from sticking to the diet, not from the products advocare sells

lost 15 lbs but I think you can get similar results for less money without the gastrointestinal distress that comes from the cleanse. Basically eat right take uppers and workout a lot the weight will melt off.

It's a diet plan where they give you a book that tells you to eat no more than 1200 calories in 3 meals over 24 days. You pay 200 dollars for it. You could also download the meal plan, have the same results, not pay 200 dollars.

Your choice
