My name is Pam, and I am a satisfied TSS product user from Southern California. I started on the TSS program on April 18th, 2009. I have two shakes a day, replacing my breakfast and my dinner. I’ve been on diets, and have tried many shakes, so I just didn’t know if replacing two of my meals was something I was going to be able to do for very long. It’s been about 7 weeks now, and I am STILL drinking two shakes a day for breakfast and dinner, and am extremely satisfied! I’m shocked!! I love the program. Nothing has worked like this for me before.
Most people are concerned with the number that is on the scale. That’s how we know we have lost weight. However, I have discovered that on TSS it’s not all about the scale, but the way you look and feel as well.
I was not very good at keeping a record of my weight when I started on the TSS Program. However, I would tell you that by guessing on how I looked and felt, and the way my clothes fit, that I had lost at least 10 lbs.
I was a Jenny Craig member for a couple of years. I go back to visit once in awhile to see my consultant because we have become friends. So I went in to Jenny Craig to see if I was in about the same time I started ViSalus. We looked it up, and I was weighed in the week before. So I got on the scale expecting to see 10 lbs gone. Well, I was wrong, it was about 5.4 lbs. I couldn’t believe it. It’s never about the number on the scale! Now I make sure to tell my customers to measure as well as weigh. I’ve realized how important before and after pictures are.
These shakes are so amazing, that with all the inches and weight I have lost, I have been able to keep my muscle mass, and all that’s important. My bones are stronger because of the milk I have in my shake twice a day, that I haven’t had in many years because I am not a milk drinker.
I am almost 39 years old, and I don’t remember a time that I have felt so good and have been so happy with the way that I look. It really has changed my life, and I want to show everyone else how it can change theirs too!!!

ViSalus Sciences® strives to give you products that are more than ordinary, and anything but average. We say this because we search the world over for the life enhancing ingredients, to give the best results. While some companies may focus on one ingredient, or one country – the world has too many hidden secrets that need to be shared. With ViSalus™, you can share the secrets of the world, and help others improve their lives, health, and prosperity. A few of the countries that our unique and potent ingredients come from include: Japan, China, Russia, Switzerland, Sweden, France, Italy, India, Spain, Latin America, and the Amazon rain forest, including Brazil.
Not only do we strive to bring you the ‘best of the world’ in science and nutrition, but at ViSalus, we also strive to provide new tools, new programs, and new avenues to build your business.
Even in a recession, we all want great health, vitality, and the body of our dreams. Saving money while eating better is a goal for many! So share the TSS story, share Vi-pak, and share NEURO! With our Vi-Shape™ Nutritional Shake mix, having just one a day for breakfast can save you up to $4 per day on your groceries, and give you better nutrition! With a full serving of protein, vitamins & minerals, prebiotics, fiber, and calcium, you can’t compare the power packed nutrition and hunger busting energy you’re going to feel versus an ‘average’ breakfast of cereal, muffins, toast, bagels, or other sugary and starchy foods.
The Vi-pak, loaded with chelated Vitamins and minerals, is packed with healthy nutrition, including Glutathione: produced in the body, an in every cell, this ingredient is a powerful antioxidant, immune system supporter, and anti-aging defender. Vi-pak® contains not just glutathione, but precursors like n-acetyl cysteine (the ingredients that help your cells make more glutathione) and other ingredients to help it stay active in your body. Glutathione is a hidden secret, because this antioxidant is “inside” your cells. Other antioxidants may kill free radicals to help prevent them from getting into the cell, whereas glutathione is your body’s cellular defense.
NEURO is ‘smart’ energy that you can taste, and feel! Most energy drinks all use the same three ‘average’ ingredients of caffeine, high levels of taurine, and sugar to give you a jolt, a rush, and can make you feel jittery. NEURO uses nutritional ingredients to help you lift the mental fog that can prevent you from feeling alert, and energized! One of our ingredients includes Rhodiola – found in Russia, and Scandinavia, this plant has been used by Russian Olympic athletes for over 30 years, and for hundreds of years globally to support stamina, endurance and energy.

We’ve all heard that breakfast is the ‘most important meal of the day.’ Yet almost half of all Americans don’t eat breakfast each day! Of those that do eat breakfast, the nutrition tends to be high carbohydrate and low on key nutrients that can help you feel great all day.
Not eating breakfast can slow your metabolism. Just as you can’t ‘train’ a car to run without gas, we cannot train our body to run without fuel. By not eating breakfast (after having had dinner the night before), our body will have gone for 10-15 hours without ‘fuel.’ This can cause your metabolism to slow down, as the body tries to maintain weight, which can affect your ability to lose or maintain weight. Studies also show that those people who do eat breakfast tend to eat less throughout the day, and are on average thinner and healthier.
So we know that breakfast is important, but equally important is what type of “fuel’ you put in your body to start the day. The ‘average’ breakfast is heavy carbohydrate (cereal, pastries, and breads are 78% of all breakfasts), which can impact your blood sugar levels and leave you feeling sluggish or hungry. These breakfasts are low in protein, low in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and can be high in sugar, salt and fat. If we look at a typical breakfast of coffee with non-fat milk, a small orange juice, and a bagel with cream cheese… this breakfast can deliver 714 calories, 881 mg of sodium, and a lot of saturated fat. If you’re a woman on a diet trying to get to 1200-1500 calories per day, you just blew ½ of your calories for the day at breakfast, and did not get a lot of great nutrition.
The Vi-Shape™ Nutritional Shake mix is a great way to start your day, and is far superior to the ‘average’ breakfast or the ‘average’ competitor’s shake. It’s why we say it should be used by everyone, whether trying to lose, gain, or maintain weight. It’s a healthy way to start your day! A Vi-Shape™ Shake will provide a full serving of protein (nutritionists recommend 20-25 grams per meal, which the shake delivers), calcium, fiber, vitamins, minerals, digestive enzymes, prebiotics, and more. The proteins were specially processed to remove fat, lactose and carbohydrates in order to provide a clean, grit free, great tasting meal that is low sodium, low carb, and zero saturated fat. With our special proteins and fiber, you can help keep your blood sugar in a normal range, and feel great.
You can also save money with TSS. The typical ‘breakfast’ at a fast food place, or even at home costs far more than our Vi-Shape. Blended with non-fat milk or soy milk, and adding in some frozen fruit brings the cost to about $2.00. To get a comparable breakfast you’d need to have 5-7 egg whites, tomatoes, broccoli, toast, milk, milk, juice, and more.
Save money, live healthier, feel great, keep blood sugar healthy… and see how great you’ll feel starting the day with great nutrition.
Did you know?
The Vi-Shape shake mix contains a digestive enzyme called Aminogen®, to provide extra nutrient benefits. Aminogen is a patented, designer enzyme which breaks down protein and improves amino acid absorption. A natural, plant-derived enzyme, Aminogen is ideal for increasing lean body mass and strength and promoting deep muscle recovery. And Aminogen does all this while supporting protein digestion and reducing or eliminating the gas, bloating and constipation protein can sometimes cause.

Not Your Average Financial Opportunity…
When ViSalus announced a series of Compensation Plan enhancements in early February, we knew that there would be plenty of excitement across our community.
What we never expected, however, was to see so many records broken so quickly by new Distributors taking action towards their goals. We have seen a surge in new Bimmer Club members from coast to coast, massive increases in both Customer and Distributor enrollment, and new markets are popping up at an unprecedented rate.
Whether you know all about these enhancements, or you’re still getting acquainted with them, we wanted to provide you some resources so you can take advantage of benefits like these:

These are just a few of the reasons why ViSalus leaves any other industry compensation plan in the dust!
At ViSalus, our internal mantra is “Don’t Be Average!”

When ViSalus launched a series of new Compensation Plan enhancements, the obvious next question was who would take advantage first? That question has been answered beyond a shadow of a doubt by new Ambassador Bill Hoffmann. Bill and his wife, Anne, have recently shattered perhaps the most revered record in the ViSalus community, reaching the position of Ambassador in just 17 days!
We recently caught up with Bill as he was enjoying quality time with his family, and he took a moment to share with us what makes ViSalus so special, and how he was able to reach the top.
Q: How were you able to build your business so quickly to Ambassador?
Hoffmann: For starters, I sampled $2,000 worth of product. The March to a Million is more than a cause, it’s an extremely effective way to build a business. Next, I found 3 key people who had goals as big as I did. I know I can’t do it all myself, so it was important to find key leaders who could follow the ViSalus system. All the pieces are in place with Vi-Net and the Share DVD, so all I did was use those resources and teach my team to do the same. I wish I could tell you there was some big strategy that took all my years of experience, but ViSalus really makes it simple. I just Shared, I didn’t have to do much more.
Q: To share $2,000 worth of samples you must have talked to hundreds of people. How do you find key leaders in a group that large?
Hoffmann: The thing about leaders is that they have a way of finding you and making their presence known. What’s important is to let everybody with a desire have the tools they need to succeed, and the true leaders will emerge. It’s also important, and this is true at every level of our business, to work with like-minded people. Don’t focus on the “no’s.” Sure we have a wonderful offering at ViSalus, but it may not be the right time for everybody. “No’s” will happen, and when they do, just move on and spend your energy on the people who are ready to go today.
Q: What excites you most about ViSalus?
Hoffmann: The Culture. The three Founders of this company have developed a family-like atmosphere unlike anything I’ve seen before in this industry. Everybody helps everybody be better than they could be on their own. I know that I was only able to accomplish what I have so far because of the Ambassadors who paid the price and paved the way for me. Those are the pioneers of this company and the foundation of my success, and the success of anybody who comes after me.
