Is shakeology a ripoff?

Irenaekl

All these shakes/meal replacements are a rip off. Nothing, but NOTHING, replaces a healthy balanced diet...certainly not a glass of toxic chemicals.

Sorry... AdvoCare girl all the way..... I eat right.... and I actually eat more than I use to and work out and take my vitamin supplements.

Yes. It's an overpriced low quality protein shake.

This goes to show how little you know about it. It's not even a protein shake. It's a meal replacement.

was telling some friends of mine on facebook that use shakeology about how it's a rip off (i chose much nicer words). them and their "coach" jumped down my throat about it and how it's easier for the body to absorb the healthy vitamins and mineals of the shake because it's in liquid form.

so you know, there is that...

really shakeology is the premier pyramid scheme supplement, Not that I subscribe to them. If I was going to market shakes on the internet without regard to anything else. you better believe I'd be hawking shakeology.

LOL. Do you even know what Shakeology is? Clearly not if you think it is a glass of toxic chemicals. Shakeology contains more than 70 NUTRIENTS… proteins, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients, adaptogen herbs, prebiotics, probiotics, fiber and digestive enzymes.

no one cares

it's multilevel marketing B.S. that is sold to the uninformed

...replace one of your higher calorie meals with this and it averages $4 a meal. You can't shop or go out to eat and get a Healthy meal for $4.

first off...don't even say "you can't go out to eat for a healthy meal" for that price because...drinking a shake isn't like going out to eat. seriously, that's just silly

As for shopping for a healthy meal? uh yeah...
One pre-cooked rotisserie chicken from the supermarket, I get 4 meals out of it: $8 so that's $2 per serving. (cheaper if you buy a frozen chicken and cook it yourself)
One bag of frozen veggies, multiple servings: less than $3.00, so let's say $1.00 per serving
brown rice: cheap as hell. definitely under $1 per serving.

^there you go, actual food that tastes good, and is healthy. under $4 per meal.

in….because this is going to be fun!

ndj1979

yes, shakeology is a rip off…you can buy some cheap protein powder and do the same thing..

also, meal replacement is a bunch of BS IMO…just eat real food, create a calorie deficit, and workout ….

This Shake is a game changer. Shakeology combined with healthy eating and a good workout will change your results for the better. I was half way through my first round of Insanity when I started using Shakeology. My results had kind of stalled and this pushed me to my goal. $129.00 for a 30 day supply gets a lot of people to say WOW, Hold up that's expensive!!!!!! People this is a meal replacement shake not a protein shake. YOU replace one of your higher calorie meals with this and it averages $4 a meal. You can't shop or go out to eat and get a Healthy meal for $4. You try this shake for a week or two and then miss a day and you can tell. Shakeology does give you energy and does all the things it say's, PLUS what other meal replacement shake or protein shake offers a money back guarantee if you don't like it or the results you get???????????

do you sell used cars too?

I've been using Shakeology for a month now. My sis-in-law is a seller and gave me a free bag to try it out.

To the people saying this is not a protein shake: You're wrong. To the people saying this is a protein shake: You're also wrong. The shake powder has protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. It is not just one or the other, it's both. To the people saying this replaces a meal: Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. This is not Slim Fast. You're not supposed to drink Shakeology in place of having a healthy meal. You're supposed to add it into your normal food intake in order to stimulate your metabolism and digestion.

But what does it do? Well, the fine print says "results may vary" and it is very true. For some people, this product changes nothing. For others, it IS life changing. People have dropped fat, gained muscle, gained health, gained energy. Personally, I'm somewhere in the middle. My weight in pounds has not changed, but I have dropped 4 sizes all over my body. I don't feel I have any more energy now than I did before.

The reason I continue to use it is because my family is below poverty line, so we can't afford a lot of healthy foods. So long as I can get it for free, I will use it because I feel like I'm getting a lot of nutrition that otherwise would be void from my diet. I would never be able to afford it.

So my suggestion is to talk to people who have used it. Try a sample. There are free samples! And try other types of shakes and supplements as well. You never know what you may find or how it may help you. Every body is different, every product is different.

So you get it for free? At that price I might be tempted too. Anything more than the price of protein powder though is a rip off.

shakeology does nothing for weight loss, muscle gain, metabolism, energy levels, etc….

weight loss - eat in a calorie deficit..no shakeology required..
muscle gain - work out, hit macros, eat in surplus..no shakeology required…
energy levels - eat some b-12
metabolism - the only thing that might speed up metabolism is caffeine..there are no 'metabolism boosters'

I guess since you get it for free that is fine…but I would not pay for the stuff...

LOL, do you even...meal replacement? Slim fast has vitamins and protein and carbs and replaces a meal for only like 89 cents when you can find it on sale. Plus you don't have to recruit anyone else to buy them from you to get your "discount", or find and make besties with the seller who may or may not be an actual coach and may or may not return your desperate calls or emails when you run out of your holy grail of fitness and diet. You just walk into any drug store or supermarket and take it to the counter and pay. They even have bars that you can shove in your purse. ...and the best part? You don't even have to mix them with 400 extra cals worth of ingredients to make them "taste so good as long as you...".

Slim Fast doesn't have nearly the same kind of nutrients nor the same quality of nutrients Shakeology has. And you don't have to add 400+ extra calories to Shakeology in order for it to taste good. It tastes good on its own. It tastes even better with strawberries or a tablespoon of peanut butter which certainly doesn't add up to 400+ calories. I took all honors math courses in high school and college… so I know math
