Steak.
ShakeO's protein (17g/140 calories) is actually pretty subpar in comparison to other, less expensive powders, but I guess if it has all those other magical properties nobody cares.0 -
I just ordered the sample package.. It's not to lose weight but to get something in me quick after my runs. I just got it and waiting on a new blender I ordered to given it a try. I know it's expensive but I just have to see if it's any good. I may or may not order it again. I will know by Friday if it taste good or not.0

Why be an *kitten*!?If it's not your money then don't worry about it. Last I knew you don't pay my bills or my grocery bills. I never mentioned its over priced. That is your opinion. If it helps me get my calories in after a long run and if I choose to purchase it again that is my right.-1 -

Such as a BABC (Big A** Bacon Cheeseburger)!

I have an issue where I am not hungry say after 8 miles and don't want food...then I eat something small and get sick with a bad headache.. just want to try it and if it helps that issue. I signed up for half Marathon in June. I can't be down sick after my runs. If it helps and I can't justify the price I can look for another solution.0

I get what you're saying, but something like ON Gold Standard Whey will do the job for half the price.

Thanks for being worried about my money. I will look into your suggestions if I feel the shakes help me get my calories up after my runs. I don't want any food after a long run. I am not trying to lose weight so weight loss isn't my reasons for trying it. Enough said. Haven't even tried.it yet. I may come back and say yuck!0

Gu is cheaper and formulated specifically for nutrition during a run.0 -

No one is worried about your money, but just think about this for a second. You spent extra money on a product that is below average and costs more than about 90% of the products you can buy. Since you have the money to waste, would you buy your car from a dealership for more money even if it has more miles than you could get it at the next dealership over?

I see a lot of bashing of Shakeology on here, can someone provide some facts on what's wrong with it (other than the price)? Are their claims BS? IF so, how do you know?0

Some of you are just plain rude with your comments! That is totally uncalled for! This person only had a question and you had to take you responses to absolute rudeness. Reminds me of the jock bullies in high school......0

Sure, please list if any of their ingredients are in efficacious dosages for humans and if you check the link I posted I addressed specifics0 -
My alternative to breakfast shakes is. . . bacon, sometime a scrambled egg, sometimes a baked apple with granola on top. Alternatives to lunch or dinner shakes: lean meat, veggies, fruit, dairy, and whole grain. Always available and always delicious. And no blender to wash.0
