    Default Body by Vi

    Just wanting to see what people think about this. I know my opinion but will let it stay unsaid for a bit here.

    Since I haven't a clue what this is about, and it hasn't entered my world, and I am content with where I am, my opinion is that it must be too expensive for me but great for those malcontents with more disposable income and time than me. Wow, that made me feel like a journalist who writes an article with no research into the subject. (but I suppose that is a thread of another color.)
    Clueless as usual.

    I hadn't heard of this one but it is probably just more snake oil.

    If it's a diet, it will not work. I've been on too many not to know. It takes a life style change.
    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    Everybody wants to be skinny the easy way. It's a simple formula: burn what you eat. People want to eat more and burn less and fix the difference with a quick easy fix. That's how stuff like this exists.

    As Lotech said, you gotta change your lifestyle. Starving or taking supplements is not the answer.

    OK from what I know:

    -You buy food from your sales rep who buys it from their district rep who buys it from their higher up who.... you get the idea. Pyramid scheme diet stuff. It's all the rage with the easily-impressed crowd. Sales reps get BMWs as enticement...which I'm sure they are now on the take for buying if their sales don't keep up.
    So the sales reps are now buying food and getting a cut of the sales plus they are buying a car. So the person that started the whole deal is basically selling food............. and cars.

    Amazing what people will let themselves get into.

    I got a body by, years of over drinking, over eating, over fishing, over motorcycling, over indulging and over enjoying life. Yeah, it will likely kill me early but I enjoy life and life seems to me to be the leading cause of death so you might as well enjoy it. Anyway, I have no use for a body by vi. No one would believe me anyway.
