Shakeology 3-Day Cleanse Questions!

I plan on buying shakeology in the next week or so and was wondering if it would be a good idea if I began with the 3-day cleanse?

Result stories would be wonderful!! And Tips on maintaining the weight loss or weight maintenance after the 3 day cleanse is over!

    The body cleanses itself, which is why we pee and poop. Also, Shakeology is a waste of money.

    What are your reasons behind purchasing this? What benefit does it offer you that a balanced diet with actual fruits and vegetables at a reasonable caloric defecit can not offer?

    I would suggest reading the pinned topic in this forum on detoxes and cleanses.

    Glad you asked here first.

    Do not buy Shakeology.

    It's an overpriced protein shake. It's pushed by beachbody "coaches" (they aren't coaches, they have no training, they're just salespeople who want your money). You can find cheaper at a store. And you won't have somebody hounding you to buy more all the time so they can meet a sales quota.

    The claims made about the product are exaggerated and laughable. It doesn't do any of the things they'll tell you. I've seen Beachbody coaches saying it wards off cancer. These people have no scruples when it comes to unloading the garage full of product they've got.

    Avoid Shakeology at all costs. Same goes for Herbalife, Body By Vi, or any other MLM scam.

    I agree, and I use to be a beach body coach until I found out it was all about sales. Not helping people just pushing their sub-par products.

    If you were a Beachbody coach and it was all about sales, you were doing it for all the wrong reasons. it's all about helping people and ending the trend of obesity. We all started out as customers ourselves and became coaches because we want to share our results with other people so they can get the same results. It's all about eating right and exercise.

    Shakeology is not a waste of money lol. :) It's a great product and I've had great results with it and so have lots of my friends and family who have started using it because of my results. the 3 day cleanse is no longer recommended (it actually never was recommended by Beachbody but we all did it anyway) but has recently been replaced a the 3 Day Refresh which is a healthier way to jump start your use of Shakeology and clean eating. I did it last week and lost 3 lbs during the 3 days (some of my other coach friends lost up to 10 lbs but I had been sick the weekend before so wasn't exercising much). I've kept it off and so have they. During July, you can get the 3 Day Refresh for just $10 more than Shakeology alone so let me know if you're interested and I'll give you more details.


    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    That is hysterical!!

    Since it's become common knowledge that "cleanses" are just bull they distance themselves from them, saying "No, that's not what we were selling." Then repackage the same crap as a 3 day "Refresh" and you're still here pushing it.

    You either lack the knowledge to sell effective weightloss products or you're an unscrupulous liar. It's one of the two.

    Also, you should read the TOS. Time to report you for advertising. Tata!

    BeachBody's 3 Day Refresh! Try it for 3 days for the low, low price of $10! Splash it on your nether-regions, sprinkle it on your carpets, boil it on the stove, use it to get rust out of pipes, AND MORE!

    *Disclaimer: NOT A CLEANSE [anymore].

    Which you can do without Shakeology or the cleanse/renew.

    I help people lose weight without spending extra money. I actually try to SAVE people money by letting them know they don't have to buy anything more than their regular food.

    Advertising/spam. Don't worry. Soon you'll get a strike and be blocked from posting in this thread again.

    And every time I see you pushing your MLM scam product, I'll report you. And so will others. You're not the first snake oil salemsen here and you won't be the last.

    But we know how to make you go away.

    God I love you.

    b) Requests or solicitations for donations are also not allowed. This includes requesting contributions to “pooled fund” competitions, requests for votes in any venue (online contests, etc.), and even requests for charitable contributions. As you can imagine, we have a lot of people who would like to raise money for worthy causes through the site. As much as we'd like to support these causes, if we were to allow requests for donations, the forums would quickly become full of such requests which would take away from the main purpose of the forums - to support one another.
    c) Posts or messages to members promoting websites that compete with MyFitnessPal are also prohibited.

    I like Shakeology. Is it a miracle cure? Nope, not at all. I think it tastes good, it's quick and easy, and I enjoy it. But by all means please don't ever do a cleanse with it, there is no purpose in a cleanse your body does that naturally. And don't do the 3 day reset, it's not necessary. Eat real food everyday, not just shakes.

    I'm sorry and I'm not trying to argue in this thread but I do feel like I need to present real facts when untruths are being presented as facts. The 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse was never something that was sold. The 3 Day Refresh is not a repackage version. It's actually closer to a shortened version of the Ultimate Reset than the 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse. You use Shakeology 3 times a day, you get 1 Fiber Sweep a Day, and 2 Vanilla Fresh Shakes a day. In addition to that you eat fruits and vegetables and drink green or herbal tea, lots of water and organic vegetable broth. This isn't a starvation or juice only cleanse - it's really intended just as a jump start to clean eating then after the 3 days you continue with the Shakeology and add back more calories.

    But it's irrelevant because it's all so unnecessary.

    Just sustain a moderate calorie deficit and get some activity done periodically. That's all you need.

    Fools and their money are soon parted though...
