A Doctor Talks About How Plexus Slim Helps Weight Loss

Everyone talks about how healty Plexus Slim is but, not many of us, even when presented with the ingredients in Plexus Slim, know what these ingredients really are.  Here is a very information video made by a doctor, where she breaks down each ingredient so we will all better understand the healthy value of Plexus Slim and why it works so well. It is nine minutes long because she goes into detail about each ingredient.  It is well worth the listen!  






I, personally, am losing weight, my blood pressure is going down, and my sleep apnea has all but disappeared in the last month and a half.

The 10 Pound Milestone

YaY!  I have lost 10 pounds as of today!  I am beyond excited!  When I began Plexus Slim in November, I set a personal goal.  I hoped to lose 10 pounds before Christmas.  Ok...so, I cut it close, since today is Christmas Eve.  But, all that matters to me is that I am losing weight during the holidays.  That amazes me each time I see one less pound showing on the scales.  


Have I given up any holiday goodies or meals?  Nope.  I have eaten any and everything I have wanted.  I've baked for several days and am going to again today.  (My favorites are peanut butter Hersey Kisses blossom cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, and sausage balls).  Tomorrow my favorite dessert on Christmas day is Pecan Pie. Believe me when I say, I will be eating it.  Since this week-end, I have eaten out at O'Charlie's and Zaxbys.  I have had cheese dip and chips and have grazed on all the good things lined up on my dining room buffet. Tonight it is home-cooked ribs, courtesy of my husband.  Tomorrow it will be a large, traditional Christmas breakfast, followed by a traditional Christmas supper.

Well, how in the world do you loose weight eating all that?  Willpower!  Plain and simple.  Do I typically have the willpower to lose weight at anytime of the year, especially during the holidays?  NO!  This is why I love Plexus Slim!  It has given me the willpower I was lacking.  The best way I can describe it, is that first, my cravings for sweets are not very strong.  Second, I get full faster.  Third, if I do go to reach for a third or fourth cookie, I can resist...the willpower is there.  

I have not given up even one outing, one meal, or one sweet that I have wanted during the holidays.  I have not felt those awful feelings of depriving myself or not being able to eat what everyone else is eating.  It is a liberating place to be. Freedom!  

No, I am not breaking records in my weight loss amounts.  I'm not trying to.  I have lost 10 pounds since November 6, 2013, and that is 10 pounds I know I will not gain back. (I think that's actually pretty dog-gone good!) Plexus Slim is a healthy weight loss drink that I will continue to drink the rest of my life.  I get a giddy feeling because I know lots more weight is coming off! 

I know many people do not start their weight loss plan until after the New Year when they make a resolution to lose weight.  If you are getting ready to take the weight loss journey, why not do something you can stick with? Most people are not going to stick with a gym membership, or counting calories, fat grams, carbohydrates, or points.  And are you really going to continue to eat expensive packaged foods in a box for the rest of your life?  Seriously?  And guess what happens when you quit eating those little boxed foods, or quite counting points or fat grams?  I think we all know the answer.  You gain it back...plus some.  It is a horrible snowball effect of dieting that most of us have gotten into.  Like I said, I am a customer for life with Plexus Slim.  I no longer need to try all the herbs and pills that might make 5 pounds fall off easy while I shake to pieces, or makes my head tingle for hours, then stops working after a month or so.  I feel blessed to have found a product for the long-haul.

 It doesn't get much easier than Plexus Slim.  Pour the powder, (similar to Crystal Light), into a bottle of water or a glass, shake it up, then drink it. You're done for the day.  You are armed with willpower and so much more!

Weight Loss - Plexus Slim vs. Redux

It has been 6 weeks and I have lost 9 and 1/2 pounds by drinking one pink Plexus Slim drink each day, not to mention a dramatic drop in my blood pressure.  I am no longer at the stroke level!  

When people ask me what I am doing to lose weight, I proudly announce that I am taking Plexus Slim. You simply take the small packet, similar to a Crystal Light packet, pour the powder into a bottle or glass of water, shake it up, and drink it.  That's it!  

Then, the next question is, "What does it do?"  That's a much harder question for me to answer.  I know what it does.  I know how it affects me.  It doesn't work like anything I have ever taken before...and believe me when I say, I've done just about everything in my effort to lose weight over the years.  

Until I found Plexus Slim, I had failed at everything I attempted in my quest for weight loss, except for one thing.  None of the low carb, low fat, or calorie or point counting diets lasted very long.  I would give up because I would crave things I knew I could never have on these diets.  The cravings and denying myself would become too much for me.  The same thing held true for the weight loss center I tried 2 different decades in my life, and the 2 of 3 prescriptions pills I tried.  

Notice I said 2 of the 3 prescription pills.  In the mid-90's I began taking a prescription pill called Redux.  I loved that pill!  When I first began taking it, I didn't think it was working because I was still eating the same things I had always eaten...and look where that had gotten me...45-50 pounds overweight.  However, I began to notice as the weeks went on and the weight came off, that I wasn't eating nearly as much food as I had before starting the little white pill.  My head didn't feel funny or tingly, I didn't feel as if I was going to crawl out of my skin.  I didn't become dizzy as I had when I had tried other things.  I just ate what I wanted but, I didn't want as much.  It was a very subtle feeling.  I could have still over-eaten but, the desire wasn't there.  

There was only one bad thing about Redux.  It was killing people...literally.  So, about 3 months and 21 pounds later, Redux was banned and taken off the market.  I couldn't believe it!  My miracle pill had slipped right through my hands.  There was nothing I could do about it, unless I moved overseas where it still had not been banned...yet.  I never did get over Redux.  I have looked for 15 years or more for another "something" that would do the same thing for me, except without all the harmful effects.

Well...I have found it!  When people ask me how Plexus Slim works, I compare it to Redux.  It gives me the same results, with the extra, added benefit of being a good, healthy way to lose weight.  It is the "good guy."  As I mentioned, my blood pressure is coming down...since November 6, it has gone from 188/84 to 150/84.  Plexus is an all-natural product originally created for people with diabetes.  It is the answer I have been waiting for!  It is even helping me with my sleep apnea, which is another story I'll save for later.  

Being a teacher, I was in many high-calorie situations last week, including my class party yesterday...cupcakes, ice cream, cake pops,  a large variety of chips and dips, oreo pudding desserts...you name it.  If it was sweet and packed full of useless calories, it was at my party.  I was wondering how it would all work out for me.  I filled my plate and knew when I was picking out my sweets, that I would not be having much.  It just wasn't very important to me to eat the sweets.  I picked at a little of one thing and took a couple of bites of a cupcake.  I ate a few chips with some dip.  Eventually, I just threw the plate away.  That's how it works for me.  I eat what I want, but, I don't always want that much.  When I feel satisfied, I can quit eating.  I also could continue to eat, even through fullness.  As with anything you do, you have to exert willpower.  Plexus Slim gives you that willpower to put the fork and be content.  

I am so excited to have found a product that works like the Redux pill did for me.  However, with Plexus Slim I can take it the rest of my life...and I will.  I can say with confidence that I will continue to lose weight and then the most important part...keep the weight off.  With Redux, I would not have been allowed to stay on it for an extended period of time anyway.  That always made me nervous to think about.

Christmas is Coming...and Guess Who's Not Getting Fat?

I just can't begin to tell you how happy I am with Plexus Slim!  I began Plexus Slim on November 6, 2013, and so far I have lost 9 pounds, my husband has lost 5 and 1/2 pounds in 2 weeks, my blood pressure has gone from a stroke level of 188/84 to 150/84, and my sleep apnea symptoms are gone.  That's something to be excited about, especially during the holidays!

My doctor had recommended I go to a sleep apnea treatment center last spring because I snored so loudly and had to sleep sitting up at least 2-3 nights a week because I just couldn't catch my breath, and felt like I was suffocating.  I had to put the head of the bed on stilts, (little plastic blocks), to try and help with this. I was given a prescription medicine that worked somewhat but, not very well or consistently.   I would wake up in the middle of the night, or in the mornings if I was lucky enough to go back to sleep, feeling as if my tonsils were growing out of my throat.  I couldn't hardly swallow.  I couldn't breath.  

The sleep apnea center has called me twice since last spring, (I've put them off with excuses so far), and are planning to call me again after Christmas.  I was dreading that call.  I was miserable but, I knew what going there meant.  It meant I would end up having surgery or I would wear an oxygen mask at night for the rest of my life.  Neither of these options sounded very good to me.  In fact, I was scared of both of them. 

The good news is that about 4 weeks ago, my snoring all but stopped.  My husband, Alan, mentioned to me a couple of weeks after I began Plexus Slim that he didn't hear me snoring anymore.  I thought that was just plain silly.  Then he mentioned that I wasn't getting up at night or having to sleep in the recliner either.  Hmmm....I thought it was interesting but, I was not fully convinced.  Since then, we have been monitoring my sleep.  Alan never has to get up and go sleep on the couch because of my snoring.  I haven't had to get up once because of my inability to swallow or because I feel like I'm suffocating.  I am so excited! Now, when the dreaded phone call comes in January about sleep apnea, I can simply say, "Don't call me again.  I'm doing just fine!"

There is no miracle cure for being overweight.  I know that.  However, for me this is pretty close.  Plexus helps give you the willpower to put the fork down.  It doesn't put the fork down for you though.  If you drink Plexus Slim each day, you will get satisfied while eating meals.  Yes, you can still ignore the signs and overeat.  Plexus does not seal you mouth together.  It is still up to you to do the right thing.  It reduces your cravings for sweets.  But, that doesn't mean it puts you in ideal situations where you won't be tempted.  It does gives you the willpower to not binge on those items that are put in front of you by well-meaning people.

Plexus Slim works very subtly.  Even though I am always aware of what I am eating, I eat what I want.  Like, I've said before, I just don't want as much to eat.  My husband and I both had cheese cake a couple of times this week, (mine with chocolate chips), we ate out several times, and we had pizza and breadsticks last night for supper.  I didn't give up my Hostess snack cakes or any other food I like.  But, something has to give in order to lose weight.  For Alan and myself, it is the quantity of food we are giving up, not the quality of foods we like.  Plexus will give you the help you need to put the fork down, if you will just listen to the signs.  

I never dreamed that by taking this product I would have so many good results.  I was just hopeful to lose weight.  Wow!  I couldn't be happier.  Plus, I know I am going to continue to lose weight and inches. The extra added bonuses are even more important to my health than my weight loss though!

Plexus Slim - HOLIDAY GIVEAWAY!

It has been a full month since I started Plexus Slim.  As of this morning, I have lost 8 pounds in a month's time...yes...even through Thanksgiving!  I think that's pretty dog-gone good!  I have eaten what I've wanted, (I just don't want to eat as much), and have not exercised at all.  I take only the Plexus Slim packet each day but, many people love taking the Accelerator pills to speed up weight loss.  I have lost inches on all parts of my body, including 1 and 1/2 inches around my waist.  


I am so excited about finding a product that actually works.  I seriously do not feel like I'm dieting.  I guess I'm not.  I'm just eating less and feeling better.  It's very liberating to know you can eat out, have dessert, eat what your family eats, and not have to feel deprived or depressed.  I feel like a normal person!  This is a great way to feel.  My husband, who has never taken anything for weight loss, is so impressed, he began taking Plexus Slim a week ago today and has already lost 3 pounds!

I am so happy with my results that I wanted to share Plexus Slim with you.  I am having a Giveaway for 2 prizes: 3-Day Plexus Slim Trial Packets.  That means 2 lucky people will win one 3-Day Plexus Slim Trial Packet.  Each trial packet includes 3 Plexus Slim powder packets and 3 Accelerator pills. Simply pour the Plexus Slim powder packet into a water bottle or glass, shake it up, and drink the really great tasting cherry/pomegranate pink drink within 30 minutes of mixing.  You can take the Accelerator pill with the Plexus Slim drink. That's it!  You're done for the day.  Now, just let the Plexus Slim do its job!

Surviving Thanksgiving with Plexus Slim

Well...Thanksgiving dinner was fantastic...baked and smoked turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sausage balls, pumpkin, pecan, and chocolate creme pies...just to mention a few things.  Thanksgiving looked the same as usual.  The meal and leftovers were as tasty as any other year.  Could I survive Thanksgiving?

 Believe me, I was more than a little nervous the night before Thanksgiving when I began baking...especially, when my favorite, sausage balls, started coming out of the oven.  I knew Plexus Slim was working but, could I overcome years and years of bad habits and not devour all the yummy food?  I am serious about taste tasting everything I bake. :) (Someone has to make sure the goodies are up to par).  

By the end of the night of baking, I knew I would be ok Thanksgiving day.  My confidence grew with each cookie sheet I took from the oven.  Don't get me wrong.  I did taste-test but, the urge to keep eating more sausage balls after eating the one was not there.

Yes, I did have a chocolate chip cookie...in fact, I had 2 cookies.  That was my snack.  It was planned and well executed.

Thanksgiving day, I ate a little bit of everything but, I was feeling full about 6 bites into the meal.  No kidding!  I had all the sweets I wanted.  Again, I just didn't want that many.  I was very proud of myself Thanksgiving Day.  I am now excited about losing weight over the Christmas holidays.  I know I can do it!  I can do it without missing out on any foods I love and want to eat.  I know I will just not want to overeat.  It's a very liberating feeling!

Today is Sunday and I have lost another 1/2 pound since Thanksgiving Day.  I couldn't be happier right now.  My husband is so impressed with me and the way he sees me eating that he ordered some Plexus Slim for himself.  Yesterday was his first day of using it.  He did not eat his nightly snacks, (I do mean snacks with an "s"), last night.  He said he just didn't want anything.  That is a first for him!
