  • The Beyond Body Wellness Book aims to help customers reach their health and fitness goals by developing a 26-day meal plan customized to each individual based on their own lifestyle dietary restrictions. The problem? They barely take this information into account, among a myriad of other issues. If you weren’t in the market for a #NewYearNewMe wellness book, perhaps you’ll simply enjoy me angrily ranting for 20 minutes about the diet industry and this company.

    This is actually really helpful because I also thought this was a “recipe book.” I know the ingredients I can eat, but what I need is a book that puts those ingredients into a meal plan so I don’t have to think about coming up with tasty recipes and counting calories and macros at the same time. Thank you for your honest review! It is fair and valuable. I hope that instead of them focusing so much on their image based on your review, they take away the learning lesson and market the product more honestly.

But the company definitely has a huge emphasis in marketing (like most other weight loss products) which to me is a pretty big red flag.

    So I bought the book. It actually gave me the same macros and caloric breakdown as my nutritionist. I am also gluten free, so it gave me multiple options of gluten free grains and breads. My only real complaint is the grocery list, but everything else does align.

  • @annette7885
    @annette7885 Год назад +3

    THANK YOU!!! I was considering this book mainly for the 28-day customized meal plan. But I became hesitant because I could never find a picture of the pages showing the meal plan "recipes." All the sites show the pages, but they quickly scroll so you cannot see them in their entirety or stop the scroll. I also wanted calorie counts for each meal with macro's listed. I also questioned how customized it could be with the limited questions, so I emailed the company to give them additional information. I was not satisfied with their response. I am experienced in fitness and nutrition and am so glad you made this video to show what you really get. I think your review was spot on. I think their marketing is deceptive and that you were not in the wrong with your first video. Thanks again for helping me make the correct decision in not purchasing this. Kudos to you!!

    As someone who is lactose intolerant I agree with you on the points about the customization. Lactose intolerance has a range to it, like some people can't have any dairy at all and people like me can have some. I can't have milk or cream but cheese and yogurt are fine. So their recommendations would not be helpful for me at all because I need recipes that don't use milk period because I hate nut and alternative milks and I'm not buying lactose free anything because it usually still upsets my stomach. That should be addressed if I'm paying for customized meal plan.

The shopping list just for one week was ridiculous. I ended up looking at the alternative choices just so that I could utilize the ingredients I already have rather than buying a bunch of crap just for it to go bad! I mainly wanted to do this to reset my eating habits but this was a bad idea. I am now cooking separate meals for myself vs. my husband. Also, I don't eat fish or seafood, yet there is fish and seafood in my "menus".

The suggested alternative for a tomato is cherry tomatoes. Really?! The group reviews posts before allowing them.

    I so wish that I had done more research into this book before I purchased it. Everything you said in your original video is exactly what enticed me to purchase the book…and their app 🙁. Unfortunately, it was one of those 2 am, I can’t sleep purchases. I am a very picky eater and sometimes have to tell restaurants/people that I have allergies just to get my food the way I want it. So, I was excited that I could make it personalized to my tastes. When I got the ebook (I still haven’t received the book yet), I immediately looked at the meal plan and thought WTH is this??? And you are correct: lactose problem-eat lactose free substitute, gluten intolerance-eat gluten-free substitute, etc. I decided to think of this as me going out for a night at the casino and losing. But I did find your RUclips channel and you just gained a new subscriber out of this so there’s that 😀. Thank you for your frank, honest and humorous opinion, I appreciated it.

    I know this is an old video but I'm glad someone else is speaking out against this. I ordered one and over half of the recipes have my allergens in them. I answered the quiz correctly. I'm highly allergic to soy, shellfish, and intolerant of a lot of fish. There were so many recipes that had fish, tofu, and soy sauce. The entire book felt unusable. When i contacted them about it, they just said i can substitute with chicken. I'm just like, it's supposed to be customized to me, so why wasn't it?

    Thank you! For saving me from being disappointed, pissed off, & wasting money! Thank you! After doing the quiz & reading everything, I was about to purchase but then I googled, do you really lose weight with beyond body & I came across your vid. So again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!❤

    Helpful review, but I wanted to note that the options/substitutions isn’t just whether you like those food items, but more so to show you how to swap out those other items. Especially, If you have one over the other on hand. It’s also to give you an idea of how to plan your own meals in the future and which foods can be swapped to have the same macronutrients.

    I'm vegan and gluten free, but I didn't see this video before I bought it. So now I have a book with every meal being quinoa and the options for the different kinds of tofu lol. However even as a vegan (selected lactose free) I literally can't have lactose free yogurt. This was... the worst purchase lol

    Thank you…this popped up today on Facebook. I did their quiz and thought they did not ask enough questions and options were highly limited when answering questions. I, too, thought there would actually recipes. Everything I was concerned about you validated in this video.

    Dang, you rock. I love the updates to correct your “errors” and were gracious in your delivery. But you really convinced me when you say “it’s not recipes! It’s just ingredients!” I also wanted a meal plan, with recipes. Isn’t the challenge with managing your food choices in the cooking choices? And portion control?
    Thanks for saving me from wasting my money. They even sent me a discount code when I didn’t hit the purchase button that made it $8/month and $25 for the book. A small investment. But seeing Reddit comments on the auto renewals, and the worthlessness of the app and the book’s short “shelf life” of relevance stopped me from clicking that buy button.
    You’re a hoot, too. Keep up the honesty and sense of humor! 💪🏽🤩

    Thank you , Thank you... I was so close to buying this book but I was skeptical. I was searching google for some reviews and I wasn't really getting a raw answer until I came across your review. What bothered me was that I didn't get a change to see what would be in my book before purchasing and that was a bit of a flag. Since seeing your video I deleted the email and said "hell no ". :)

    It was completely wrong for them to ask you to remove your video after you spent your time and effort making and editing an honest, genuine review. This video is very important so that others can look up videos like these and see. This was just your review, and other people may have had a different experience, but everyone's opinion counts so it was definitely unacceptable for the company to tell you to take down your video. I love how you corrected the minor mistakes that you made and owned up to them as well. :)

I've been inundated with Beyond Body ads, had their website pulled up, and said to myself "lets just see what the reviews are first," because, I too, am a sucker for a good marketing ploy when it comes to health and wellness. I am so happy I came across your hilarious (and honest) video. You have a new subscriber now, and Beyond Body does NOT have a new customer.

    The fact that they used quail eggs as one of the ingredients…. Confused me.
    I’ve never had a quail egg in my life and have never seen them in my grocery stores.
    And the only time I’ve seen a duck egg was when I was in a farm in the UK lol.
    Like…
    The food section did not meet my expectations.
    same with the substitutions.
    When you went over that part I was like… this is exactly my feelings.

    I ordered it because I saw a "discount " for it...not so much $120 later. I was hoping the customized meal plan would help me with my picky eating, nope everything I mentioned it did not eat, is in like every dinner...an entire dinner is full of literally everything I don't eat. As soon as I got the ebook/access to the app, I emailed them that it was not customized and I wanted a refund of the app subscription (not even a full refund). Crickets.

    • @kahbee15

    First of all, thank you for making clarifying statements. This is the first video I’m seeing and I just am so impressed. With the DNA thing. I just went through the women’s version and the men’s version quiz cause I thought oh maybe me and my husband could do this but can’t see what differences are so I thought would look for reviews before actually buying. The men’s book DOES say “perfect body’s DNA” on the cover.
