    Shakeology isn't necessarily bad, but it is a rip-off. Visit your local Vitamin Shoppe and get Vega One or PLNT or Spirutein, etc. There are plenty of brands that are better for half the price.

    I totally agree. I drink Vega One shakes for breakfast most mornings (mixed with a few bananas) and they are great! The new formula is GMO free so you know there's nothing synthetic in there either.

    I do not believe you need Shakeology to be successful on a Beachbody program.

    Yes you do because you are also a Beach Body coach which is why you say you drink it every day.

    I've always wondered why people are willing to replace a meal with a drink unless they're pressed for time, and even then there are more satisfying quick food options. As a random glass of something to drink, I understand, but a meal? Do you really feel satisfied after a liquid meal? Even as a morbidly obese person who knew diddly about nutrition I remember refusing any meal replacement shakes that were pushed at me with a simple "why on earth would I do this to myself?"

    I make a protein smoothie every day for lunch. Partly because it helps me my protein goals and because it's delicious. The things i add would be hard to eat when separate on a plate.

    I add:

    2 scoops of protein powder
    1 raw egg
    1tbs chia seeds
    1tbs wheatgerm
    25g kale
    30g Fibre powder
    whole banana
    15g coconut oil
    And almond milk and blueberries.

    It just tastes really good when mixed together, but not so nice when eaten separately, especially the powders/seeds ;)

    I used to drink shakeo, I personally felt better drinking it but I think it's the maca powder in it. I believe it's the first ingredient. I would just buy that powder and incorporate it into another shake. I have toyed with the idea of beachbody coaching but never jumped in. It is too expensive even with the coach discount. I personally also like plain ole whey protein with various mix ins such as chia, greens, etc... Almased is a good one also. Hope I spelled that right

    Oh yea shakeo did not keep me satisfied. I would be hungry in a hour. So I would add half a scoop of whey with the shakeo! Man the calories! I finished the bag and never ordered another thank god I didn't do auto ship!
