    I have been using Shakeology since November and have lost 24 lbs. The chocolate is fantastic and can be made in so many ways that you don't get tired of it!

    Instead of paying for some unnatural 'food-type' substance, why not make the effort to eat a better diet with real food? The best food for your body is as close to nature and unprocessed as possible. How hard can it be?

    Funny how many reviews about Shakeology being overpriced and an inferior product are typically trying to promote their preferred weight loss gimmick! I love Shakeology because it has increased my energy! I DON'T use it as a meal replacement, ( i drink it for the energy and I am not disappointed with the ingredients) I DON'T have a coach, I DIDN"T sign up as a coach to get it cheaper, or to make money, or to push other people to buy it... I simply use the product because I like it. I was skeptical, still have mild reservations about spending that amount of money; however, my energy level is so much better and my waist has dropped 2 inches since using it (2 months) But I will admit, the shake goes farther and taste better when I add strawberries, black berries, or a tbsp of peanut butter, or almond milk and ice...must use ice, makes it more like a shake and less like cake batter! I've tried way cheaper meal replacement shakes and they just don't cut it!

    I do eat very healthy foods! Some how though I get that you are NOT necessarily that much concerned about my well-being! Be mindful of your assumptions!

    Meal replacement dicussions on MFP confuses me.

    To my fellow UK poster, you've never heard of Slimfast?

    I've been using chocolate Shakeology for a few weeks now. I typically mix it with water, a banana, and a tbsp of peanut butter and drink that shake for lunch. I have noticed that I'm snacking less at work (which was a HUGE problem before) and have less cravings but that could be the placebo effect for all I know. And this next statement is a major TMI but it's been giving me godawful gas. I feel like the price is too steep and will be purchasing IdealShape next month to see how that works.

    @Inspirem

    I'm sorry you seem to think I am criticizing you personally as that was not my intent at all. However it may have been me pressing the wrong link for reply as I'm new to this site, but my actual aim was to reply to the original topic poster who posted this:

    "What do you think about Shakeology? I don't eat veggies or fruit very much at all. I don't have a healthy diet. I'm a junk food junky. I am exercising though (Turbo Fire) and love it. But my diet SUCKS! My Beachbody coach is wonderful (WADE BOND) and he is really encouraging me to try the Shakeology."

    I assumed nothing about you at all - I was just a bit baffled by the original poster who seems to want to exercise, but then fuels up on self-admitted crap. You don't drive a Ferrari and put sugar in the tank! And their coach is not 'wonderful' if they are not advocating a healthy diet alongside the exercise.

    ;o)

    I love Shakeology and it's worth the money to me. I don't drink alcohol anymore, and if I do it's rare and that was a waste of $$ - so Shakeology is no biggie to buy :)

    Hey everyone!
    I have been drinking shakeology for over 7 months and I have to disagree with everyone about the taste, the green berry is good but I think Chocolate is the best it taste like a chocolate milkshake, if you make it right. I put 8ounces of water, 1 small banana, a teaspoon of raw honey, a dash of cinnamon and lots of ICE then blend it in a blender till the concistancy is like a milkshake. I believe it is worth the money you can get it for $3.00 to $4.00 a shake and that is one meal. If you were to buy all of the ingredients that are in shakelogy it would cost you a lot of $. They are coming out with a Tropical flavor next month and I heard that it is really good, I can't wait to try it. They also say that it takes sometime to really start seeing the results, lose weight, hair, nails & Skin look better. And I just feel better. I am very passionate about this product and that is why I have been using it for over 7 months.
    There are hundreds of different recipes so you never get tired of drinking it.
    I hope this helps out.
    Good Luck on your health and fitness goals.
    Kim

    I think it tastes good. Everyone has different tastes but it's worth trying. The new flavor strawberry tropical comes on feb 14th. And for shakeology it all depends on how you make it. You do get different recipes so you can make it taste better of you don't like the plain taste. I made pb$j and it actually tasted like a sandwich. Look at how many ppl like that nasty chocolate peanut butter nutlia. That stuff is gross. Everyone now a days is used to getting bad food that when something healthy comes along they don't like it cuz it doesn't have the greasy taste. It all depends one what you like in the end

    You shut your mouth, Nutella is one of the greatest things ever

    hahaha i concur with this gentleman!

    lmao as do i!

    Nutella has hazelnuts! Love it!
