    ok. I use shakeology daily. This is probably my favorite thing ever. No, its not overpriced. the way I see it, I could either be paying for a bunch of food to make up a breakfast, or I could be paying for this shake. its not junk, its done wonders for me. If you are interested in learning more about it let me know! I'm more than willing to help you figure out if its worth your money!

    A dozen eggs and a package of bacon costs around $5 and covers breakfast for 3 days.
    A package of chicken and several cans of vegetables costs $12 and covers lunch for an entire week.
    A bag of potatoes costs $5 and lasts 3-4 weeks.

    With your beachbody coach discount a single shake costs you $3.32.

    Explain how that isn't over priced.

    I don't know where you live but bacon here costs $5.99 a package, $4.99 if you find it on sale (plus we're one of the states that have sales tax on food, so add in more). Eggs about $2 a package. Eggs bacon, chicken, and canned veggies (hello sodium!!) don't contain spirulina, wheat grass, yacon root, goji berry, acai, flax, etc. I'd rather may more and keep the garbage out of my temple.

    You did say it was not overpriced, which is why I commented on that part (please check the areas I bolded). Also, frozen vegetables and fresh vegetables are nearly the same cost as a can of vegetables.

    i just personally don't like canned veggies. i like the frozen stuff. maybe its just personally preference. either way. its what i like. its not overpriced if you learn how to budget stuff. a lot of people say they cant afford shakeology, but are at starbucks every day with a $5 coffee when its just as easy to make it at home. or they go out to eat 4 nights a week when they could cook at home and save a ton of money. I've learned to make it work for me. if you are going to be another person *****ing about the way i do things then save your breath. i was giving an opinion that's it.

    That is a sales pitch
    yea, and if you knew anything about it, you'd know that if she was interested in it, she probably already has a coach that she has talked to. what is it with you people and constantly spreading hate?! i honestly don't get why you are even on here if you are just gonna be rude to people all day. sounds like you live positive lives

    Yes I know you coaches are a dime a dozen, and with the OP making this thread she is probably being flooded with messages. It's not hate, it's helping other people not to waste money on a product that is unnecessary. I live a very positive live and luckily for me when I was new on here there were people that posted so I didn't spend money and believe the crap. So if I can help prevent one person from wasting their money on worthless junk, I'll post.

    thank you, for at least understanding!

    Where was there garbage in that, other than the sodium (which, easy -buy fresh/frozen or get no salt added canned vegetables)?

    My "temple" does just fine regularly eating bacon, chicken, eggs, canned/frozen veggies and excluding things like spirulina, wheat grass, yacon root, goji berry, acai and flax.

    We have tax here too. Even for a couple of dollars more for a few days of food it comes out to less than the shakes you drink. You do not need spirulina, wheat grass, yacon root, goji berry, acai or flax to lose weight. Several of those are proven to do nothing for you. The vitamins in the shake are not even high quality.

    Oh, I'm sorry. I swore off forums until I saw a MLM scheme member actually use this phrase as a means to try and scam someone out of their money. Omg. No, its fine. There will be more gelato and chips for my "temple" then, since yours finds it off limits. I named it "The Temple of Doom"

    Not familiar with it. Is it like a sequel to Darren's Dance Grooves?

    did i ever say it wasn't overpriced? nope i think the cost is absolutely ****ing ridiculous. but it works for ME. im not worried about what works for you. and cans of vegetables are ****ing gross. so no, i don't get those. this shake it what i use. i gave my opinion of it. i am not saying that it would be great for you or the next person. i gave what i personally think. the price works with my meal plan and my program. so if that's not ok with you, then alright, you are entitled to that opinion. im glad you found a system that works for you. but this is me.

    You did say it was not overpriced, which is why I commented on that part (please check the areas I bolded). Also, frozen vegetables and fresh vegetables are nearly the same cost as a can of vegetables.


    And ^^^THIS^^^ is why I love you! :heart:


    *I* HAVE tried Shakeology. I bought the Koolaid and paid the absurd cost. Everyone that thinks it is "delicious" must have very different tastebuds than I do. It was quite gross tasting to me. But, I sucked it up and drank it anyway. It led to horrible gas and digestive issues. Again, I kept drinking it, thinking my body would get used to it. About halfway through my second bag, I realized that it is not my body, but the shake. It is NOT delicious, and it is NOT worth the ridiculous price. A good multivitamin, fresh, healthy fruits and veggies, and watching my calorie intake is working much better for me.

    and you're completely entitled to that. i don't care. good for you that you met your goals doing whatever you are doing. congrats. but seriously get over it. i wasn't talking to you, nor did i tell her to buy it. i said if she wanted to know more I'd let her know more. maybe don't be so quick to judge

    I'll just sit over here and keep eating my (homemade) egg sandwich covered in cheese every morning for an average price of about $0.75. Oh, and I'll keep dropping clothing sizes while I do it. kthxbye.

    You can say it all you want....it's still junk.

    OP, no need to buy that junk.

    you can also say all you want hating on it. but obviously you never tried it so don't know. how about instead of negativity and judging something you wouldn't look twice at just because your "that kind of guy" you let somebody with an honest opinion help out.

    Yes, I am the kind of guy that doesn't fall for scams. Sorry that you are/were. An honest opinion from a coach that sells the product is kind of an oxymoron, no? The FACT is, one does not have to try something to know if it's junk. If you want to make a living scamming people, have at it, but don't get upset when "not so gullible" people try to deter people from making mistakes.

    I don't care how you do things. I was pointing out that if someone cooks their own food they would have to spend extra money per meal on Shakeology, which makes it overpriced.

    Well thank you for permission to be entitled to my opinion, I appreciate it. Now you are speaking in a public forum, making claims that you can't even keep straight from post to post. It's not overpriced, it is overpriced. I will also state my opinion and judge when I think someone is selling a substandard unnecessary product.
