I am skinny but I thought I would try the chews and the shake. I have the chocolate chew & the vanilla shake & I do not like them at all. Do the other flavors taste better? I do not really like the fiber shake either. How can I promote it if I do not like it? Also the foundations does not seem to stay on me. I just want to sell and I love the Re9 but I want to love them all

mom & i mix the fiber & the protein powder with lite v-8 splash & make smoothies with a smoothie machine. they taste really great like that. the chews are another matter. i only like the choc & citrus & they are only tolerable. i have tried alot of other diet products and can tell you in my opinion these are the best ones on the market. my 5 yr old doesnt like them, she prefers her smoothies with ice cream or sherbet & that is not diet. i agree the do taste yummy but they wont help whittle your waist line down but the figure 8 system will.
as for the foundation i do occassionaly wear it but i mostly just wear the powder, the bronzing powder as my foundation. since using the re9 system my face has gotten in such good shape that i am comfortable just using the powders and love it.

I love the Berry Burst Chews and the Orange Fiber Shake, My 2 year old even likes the orange fiber! I don't personally like the vanilla or choco shakes, however I know tons of people who do. Find some people you know who love the figure 8 line then, What you could say to people is something like this, " I don't care for the taste of it but a friend absolutely loves it." Most people who are looking for diet shakes, know that they are not going taste like the real thing.
As for the foundations, I absolutely love the foundations and have never had the problem of them not staying on, so I'm a bit perplexed on that one.

You could also try the shakes in a blender with low fat milk. They taste a lot better this way!!! I cannot stomach the fibre shake and usually leave it out altogether. The chews are o.k. but really do stop those cravings. One of my clients has lost 25lbs on the program.
As for the foundation - the one in the bottle is meant to give you a light and dewey complexion (I personally love this). Try applying this with a foundation brush - the finish is flawless!!However, the stick is way more of a matte base - maybe this would stay longer for you!!
Good luck

I love the fibre shake with skim milk, and I mix in the vanilla protein shake and add a bannana and it it delicious. I also love the berry chews but not a huge fan of the citrus. Have you tried a finishing powder after applying your foundation?

My husband does the Vanilla and orange fiber mixed with Banana, Strawberries or pineapple. He loves it. He also enjoys the chocolate chews.. he doesn't care for the cirtus. I haven't tried the berry ones yet but my friends daughter says they are like starburst.. she is 11 and is always eating them. Her mom said she had to stop. My first chew (chocolate) I didn't like but by my third I didn't even notice.
As for foudation. Love it.. use very little as my skin doesn't need to cover.. I use the bronzing powder mostly.. with a little finishing powder first.. that works best for me.
Good luck.

smileys/smiley11.gifI too do not like the taste of the chocolate chews and shakes, but you know what? We have been "conditioned" by years of using sugar in everything to make it taste better. No one ever said dietsupplements had to taste great and maybe that is the problem, lol. I have lost weight and my sister who I started on the program two months ago has lost over 12 lbs to date.smileys/smiley32.gif It could taste like cardboard, lol, and I'd still use it because #1. it does work, and #2. I am determined to finally get over the "sugar" thing that permeates everything we eat.smileys/smiley9.gif

Well, I am one of those ones who didn't like the shakes or the candy very much at first, but after only 2 or 3 days I began to like them and now I love all of it. I lost 13 pounds in 2 months so maybe that has something to do with it,lol!! I like to mix the choc and vanilla shakes together, gieves it a better taste. I also like the choc chews, love the berry burst and don't like the citrus. I have tried slim fast and Adkins shakes and Arbone's taste and work the BEST!! :)
