Advocare WASTE of Money
Seeking info re Advocare
I did the 10 day cleanse with no problems, definitely need to drink the fiber drink quickly or it turns to a jello consistency.
However three days into the second phase of the 24 day challenge my face, neck, chest and back began to get very warm and red like I was sunburnt. I started to feel very itchy and my face began to tingle like it does right before it goes numb.
Obviously I knew i was having an allergic reaction so I took Benadryl and went to sleep.
The fourth day I woke up and my face was swollen, not horribly but enough to cause concern and go to urgent care. I told the doctor I had just started this new phase and while looking at the ingredients he noticed the crazy amount of niacin in the product. Side effects in high doses of niacin yep that's right redness of skin especially in the face and neck, itchy, numbness/tingling, and dryness in the skin.
So Long story short I'm on medications for a week and will not be using this product again. **Definitely consult your physician just in case u may be allergic to something in these products!!!
On a different note I know several people who use advocare products without any problems.
Advocare Scam 24 day challenge and more
You are right that you can obtain the same nutrition results in other ways. Yes, you can be eating all those things that you indicate.
And yes, part of why you lose is because you are drinking more water, cutting out alcohol, fatty foods, etc.
However -- that's what the Advocare Cleanse plan does, it helps you break those habits, maintain healthier habits while on a structured plan. Once you are done, usually most of those habits will stick.
Is this neccessary to lose weight?
Nope!
Is this the ONLY way to lose weight and start a path towards getting healthy, and maintaining healthy habits?
Definitely Not! Everything you need to start (including the supplements, eating plan, meal replacements) is laid out for you, and it will most definitely kick start you will 5-10 lbs lost and healthy habits.
So, yes it definitely works. If you don't like it, and want to use another method, go for it!

Advocare hidden no return policy
well there is a guarantee. you can send back UNOPENED products if you're a distributor.
if you're just a retail customer you can get the distributor you bought it from to reimburse you, and THEY can send it back and be reimbursed. so whoever you're talking to is lying or doesn't know what they're talking about

I tried it and I hate the taste of the pills and they are too big. Also the drink is awful and I really didn't see any results.
I would rather stick to juicing and fresh vegetables and fruits.
Vitamins can be bought cheaper. Never again.
just completed the 24 day challenge. I lost 16 pounds.
Pretty happy. I will tell you that I would have lost the same amount of weight with or without buying the challenge kit. When it all comes down to it. It's simple.
You don't need any supplements to lose weight if you eat right and exercise. These products are no different from any product you by at a GNC or any Dietary supplement store. Not a GNC plug either (their prices are way too high). I know that people will state that you cannot flush your system without these supplements.
I say bologna. If you eat enough green vegetables, fruits, and fiber you will surely flush yourself of any toxins from eating incorrectly. At the end of the day if you just eat right and exercise you will gain your best results for losing weight. One last thing.
I never refer to eating right as a diet. I feel that diet has a negative connotation and sets you up for failure. If someone ask if you are on a diet.
Say NO, I just eat right. I am telling you it will help you maintain a healthy way of eating.
Dude your insane. I don't even know why I'm spending my hard earned free time responding, but here goes.
1-your mentor/coach was a bozo and didn't tell you what you should be doing(coach you on the correct steps to follow). 2-You eat 3 meals per day and several snacks between and the products are amazing I've been on them for 4 years and I'm a trainer and would recommend them to anybody. And yes I've tried a lot of the "normal average other vitamins out there) You do eat, quite a bit. If you don't your not going to burn calories and up your metabolism.
Yeah you could spend a lot less at some *** store and save some $$ but these r quality products and you get what you pay for. Go buy *** and your gonna get ***/ or just plain/OK... Products. Why don't u next time find a good coach who will build you up right and explain everything to you correctly.
It's very simple program just takes a lot of planning and effort :) Then you would be totally happy.
I have helped literally 20-30 people in the last.4 years loose a lot of weight AND inches and some of them didn't even have to workout to get the results. I Will put any of my challengers up on a pedestal for what they have accomplished :)

It helps many people! It may not of helped you but your body is different.
#1: this "$300 placebo package" costs WAY less than what you stated. Not even close to $300.
#2: I'm sorry you didn't eat much, I ate A LOT during the whole challenge including the cleanse.
Basically every couple of hours. Drank a lot of water too! Whoever gave you the idea that you shouldnt eat is COMPLETELY wrong. Maybe that's why you didn't lose anything...
Your body NEEDS nutrients and you will actually gain weight by not doing so.
#3: the scale doesn't always give you the answers you're looking for. The first challenge I did, I only lost 7 pounds but an overall TEN inches. You should have measured yourself and went by that rather than the scale...
#4: this program absolutely DOES push exercise.
These aren't magic pills. You need to put in a little bit of effort yourself if you want to see results.
I'm just saying that its not fair that you give these products a bad name when you clearly didn't follow the directions.
I lost 12 pounds on the Cleanse and total of 28 pounds on 24 day challenge. I thought day 3 and 4 were tough.
I had a little headache and was drained but after that I've felt incredible. And I don't understand anyone starving on the diet. I've ate more food than ever. Just a different eating schedule than before has made all the difference.
Was a life changer for me and nope I'm not a distributor.
I think you possibly did not follow the directions correctly. Because I ate.
I ate a lot. Every 2-3 hours I was eating and I was FULL. and I did *** a lot because I was drinking a lot of water. This is SO good for your body to drink water whether you are on the cleanse or not.
I am not sure if my 10.1 pound weight loss during the cleanse was better, or the cravings I got rid of while doing the cleanse (dairy and sugar). Maybe you should just do the cleanse and see how you fair following the directions...
This is most definitely NOT a scam!!! Most likely you
Had a bad experience because the person coaching you
Probably didn't explain anything to you not guide you
In the eating process.
You are suppose to eat and if you
Didn't nothing would work. All that would do is cause your body to starve.
So I'm sorry you didn't have a great experience but I did several fitness Challenges where I had a trainer and good delivered to me and it took Me 3 months to get the same results in less than 24 days with Advocare.
It's nutrition. Sad you weren't informed!
I ate really healthy for several years, and had lost the first 40 pounds or so by the time I started this, but had plateaued and struggled for over a year before finding Advocare - I was biking 30 miles a day, lifting 5 times a week, swimming 5 days a week... maybe overtraining but that is what it had built up to in my futile efforts to crack that plateau.
The diet certainly plays a major role, so I can't say it was just the products, but Spark is a definite boost. I can't say what is the definite cause... but I know I lost like 4 stubborn inches off of my waist in less than a month, along with 14 pounds. I have a six pack.
After 10 years, I have that back, and I had only used this for a month. And most impressively: I am doing it in the dead of maybe the worst winter in the upper-Midwest in several decades! Anyone who deals with REAL winter knows exactly what I mean. Smashing a plateau in January is unheard of.
For now, I like supplementing with Advocare. It has helped me get the results I wanted. I still want to lose another 8-15 pounds (we'll see), and they are going to be the hardest, so I'm restocking today in hopes I can keep making progress. But so far, it has definitely outperformed anything else I tried in helping crack a stubborn plateau (including pre-workouts and post-workouts and protein powders and all those other things which, scientifically speaking, work; but may not work for everyone).
And p.s. I have lost no strength - I have actually been training hard right on through and have gotten stronger while dropping weight fast. For me, and for those who actually put in any WORK to lose weight (and it will take a lot of that, there are no magic pills), this is not an expensive product. Not compared to how many hours you can work fruitlessly trying to lose weight, when following this strict eating plan (and supplementing with Advocare, I think, helps prevent deficiencies when you cut back on diet - that is the point, and it is why I have lost weight AND maintained strength and energy) can give such rapid and impressive results.
And they have been impressive, for me; I don't post pics but I do look good, and that is not something I would have said even four weeks ago.
So please give this a shot if you are desperate, as I was. It is an investment in your body (what could be more important?), and a relatively small one at that, and if you follow it to the letter, it just might change your life and outlook, as it has certainly changed mine.
All products like this whether mail-order food ***, drinks, pills are just scams. Another thing; you don't need cleanses.
Your own body cleanses itself; that is what a liver and other organs or for. Just because you *** from some drink doesn't mean you are cleansing your body any better. The people who invent this stuff make the money off the *** public that by it who lose their money in the process.
Eat healthy, drink healthy and exercise daily.
Buy a good pair of sneakers and jog or walk each day. Don't waste your money on all the gimmicks out there.
