I'm a week into doing Genetix. I got it through a Groupon. I had never heard of it before the Groupon and cannot find a single person who has any experience with it. Has anyone here tried it? I'm curious what you thought about it.

Thanks!

Never even heard of it, but wish you the best of luck!
Maybe you could explain a bit about it and who knows, maybe someone likes the program and may join you!

Let me tell you what I know about the diet so far. They start you out on a three day fruit and vegetable only detox. It's a one time only thing. You can eat as much as you want as long as it's fruit and you can have a vegetable only salad for lunch and dinner. Once that is done, you move into Phase II which is a strict, but livable diet. Three meals a day plus four snacks from a limited food list. I do feel like I'm eating constantly and I can't complain about being hungry. After this phase, they'll start adding food into the diet plan.

The real "gimmick" of the diet, if you will, is that you speak to a counselor by phone everyday. The counselor is knowledgeable, in my opinion. You discuss what you've eaten, your daily weigh-in, your mood, etc.

Like I said before, I got this through a Groupon or I don't know that I would have tried it. So far, I've had a pretty good experience. I've lost 8.4 pounds in 9 days (I have about 70 pounds to lose) and other than the detox phase, it's been pretty easy. I don't feel that it is extreme or unhealthy in any way. I guess the question for me is going to be is it worth the money once the Groupon is over to continue with it.
