Shakeology

Today is my fourth day of drinking Shakeology for lunch at work and I love it. I don't want to go eat something fried and un-healthy like before (although this could be because of the phentermine). Shakeology taste amazing A lot better then some protein powder you buy at GNC. 

Depending on what time of day you plan to drink your Shakeology is how you know what to put in it. If its for snack you should probably just add the Shakeology powder and some milk or water and shake in the mixer/cup. If your replacing Shakeology with a meal like I do, I blend mine in a magic bullet with other ingredients such as banana, strawberries, almond butter, a cup of milk, ice and water. That's not the only recipe I use but its my favorite when drinking the chocolate flavor. With the vanilla flavor, I mixed frozen blueberries, some honey, milk, water and ice.  Although they give you recipes to use, i like to experiment with what I already have in my fridge instead of going grocery shopping for all the ingredients that they suggest. Oh and I only buy frozen fruit. Why? because I don't have time for fresh fruit. I know that sounds silly but I really don't. I don't have time for any fresh ingredients. I buy all my veggies and fruit frozen, were not all perfect. Anyways, I blend my ingredients while dinner is cooking (veggies steaming in the microwave) and then I freeze my shake and put it on my desk at work the next morning and let it thaw and then its ready for lunch :) Its easy! 

One of the negative things I hear people talk about Shakeology is how expensive it is.. If you drink Shakeology as a snack, then yes, it is quite expensive BUT if your drinking Shakeology as a meal replacement then no, its not. If you calculate it, Shakeology comes out to about $4 a day. How much do you usually spend on lunch a day when your at work and need to go get something? I used to spend $12 sometimes going out and getting lunch so is it worth the price you ask? yes. Shakeology is so extremely healthy for you and it fills me up.  

Over all, I think its worth the price, and I do think that its helping me loose weight, stop cravings and in crease my energy.
