    shakeology is a waste... just get a whey isolate protein and take a multivitamin. its exactly the same.

    Multivitamins are good they just don't break up well in the body cause they are to compact so your body does not get all the vitamins.. Just saying.. Good day

    Oh wow this was so helpful everyone!!! I cannot thank yall enough! I've decided to not buy it because I didn't know it was that much. But like ladybarometer said, im not against it, I'm just a little cheap lol. and I know of don't have the money to spare right now because I am in desperate need of a new car before I start back at college in the fall semester.

    But does anyone have a website link or know of anywhere that can tell me how to portion control? I'm horrible at it lol. My husband is a super picky eater and I am not so it's really hard for me to decide what to cook and how much but if I need to cook a separate meal for him, I will. I eat anything except asperagus (sp?). I am also on adderall now so I don't eat much but my mouth is always so dry so I've been sticking to sandwiches, which in sure isn't the best but it's better than eating out for lunch everyday at work. And it's cheaper.

    Also, does anyone have smoothie recipes? I love smoothies but I'm not great at making them off of the top of my head. Ps. I LOVE blueberries. lol.

    Portion control is something you learn. Read the packages of things you eat. Buy a food scale and weigh all non-liquid foods. 227g is a cup of Greek yogurt. 14g is a tablespoon of butter. 12g is a serving of chia seeds. My protein powder of choice is 28g. The scoop that comes with it usually comes out to about 32g, so I weigh it to get a proper portion. It's also great for fruit and vegetables since a banana can be anywhere from 80g to 120g depending on how big (and I try and purchase the smaller ones, the crazy big ones can be even more).

    Well you can buy it on amazon or ebay cheaper and you can buy your own containers.and then sub out the shakeology. Or you can buy beach bodys streaming thing where you can use any of their programs which is cheaper too.
