1) How long have you two been with Vi? Did you start off as a customer only or straight to promoter? What attracted you to become a Promoter of the Challenge?
Gina: We partnered with Vi back in August of 2014, so coming up on 2 years now! We started off as promoters right away because we understood the value of the opportunity at hand. As gym owners, we are endlessly asked for recommendations on protein, and all other factors of nutrition from our clients. We were thrilled to learn that we could offer our clients a high quality product, help them get healthy and lose unwanted pounds, all while giving back through the Vi Cares program, which feeds children in need right in our community!
Mike: I'll also add that we saw a huge opportunity to impact so many more lives, reach so many more people, especially those that may have never walked through the doors of our gym. It's awesome to be able to help people in other states and countries just by sharing our passion of fitness and nutrition!
2) What are your favorite, don't-leave-home-without products?
Mike: I love the Chocolate Monkey Vi Bites and I cannot go without the Vi Shape shake mix!
Gina: I really enjoy the Vi Crunch protein super cereal (in milk or dry) and I always have a Nutra Bar in my purse just in case!
3) What was the hardest obstacle you two have overcome during your transformations?
Mike: For me, I think having to pay attention to portion control in my non-Vi meals was a challenge. Thanks to Vi, I had plenty of great options to grab and go throughout the day. I also struggled a little bit with late night sweet tooth cravings after dinner, especially when we get home from working late!
Gina: I think for me it was tough during family gatherings and other social settings where everyone else around me is eating food that looks delicious, but not so healthy. I stayed strong most times, and a couple times that I let myself have a treat, I just made sure it was a very small portion instead of just binge eating it.
4) How have you both used Vi to help others?
Mike: I'm really happy to have been able to help my mother get Vi shakes added into her eating routine every day. She trains at our gym about 6 days a week, and she needs that high quality protein to help repair her muscles. Funny thing is that she makes her shakes so often that my father has begun to sip on hers, and is now getting his own bag of Vi shake mix on a regular basis! I'm glad to be able to help both of my parents stay healthy and live long!
Gina: We are so proud of a gym client of ours that we helped lose over 40 pounds on the Challenge! She stayed very consistent with her meal plan, using Vi products, and strength training 3 days per week. She never imagined she could lose so much and feel so good! Her original goal was just 10 pounds! The best part is that 120 healthy meals were donated to kids in our local area from documenting her weight loss with Vi!
