Meal replacement shakes -- buh-bye Shakeology :(

I've tried a variety of brands but haven't really found a favorite. My own needs are to have over 20 grams of protein and less than 4 carbs per serving so taste gets a back seat. My current favorite because it tastes the most like chocolate and doesn't smell chemically to me is Nature's Best Isopure low carb dutch chocolate 110 cal, 25g protein 1.5 carbs, if I have room for more calories/carbs I will mix it with milk but usually I mix it in cold water, the colder the better.

I prefer to chew my protein, never could get into protein shakes

If you like chocolate milk - why not drink chocolate milk???
And eat food???

alot of these i don,t think you can get in the uk

Lot less calories in almond milk. That's why I personally use it in my shakes. Plus less dairy issues if that matters to you.

I discovered almond milk recently. LOVED it..

Then I realized there's no protein in it, and that's the whole reason I'm using it in my shakes.

I almost cried

Oat milk is a tasty vegan alternative to dairy milks, and it is also nutritious. Oat milk is made with pre-soaked oat groats, which are hulled grains broken into fragments. Oat milk features a mild, slightly sweet taste, which substitutes well for low-fat or skim milk. Oat milk can also be used in the same way as rice milk or soy milk. Western herbalists recommend oat milk as a tonic for the nervous system. Oat milk is very low in fat and lactose free.
VITAMINS AND MINERALS
One benefit to drinking oat milk is its nutritional content. According to the website Soymilkquick.com, oat milk contains 10 minerals and 15 vitamins. Just a cup of oat milk contains 36 percent of the recommended daily allowance, or RDA, of calcium. Oat milk also contains 10 percent of the RDA for vitamin A, which is twice as much as cow's milk. If you suffer from anemia and are looking for vegan options for iron intake, one serving of oat milk contains 10 percent of the RDA.

LACTOSE FREE AND CALCIUM-RICH
A surprising fact about oat milk is that it contains more calcium in one serving than regular cow's milk. Oat milk contains 36 percent of the RDA for calcium, while one serving of whole milk contains 28 percent. This fact allows you to get a good dose of calcium each day even if you are lactose intolerant, since oat milk is lactose-free. Many people who are lactose intolerant choose other sources for lactose-free milk, such as rice milk or soy milk. Oat milk might be a better choice for you, because it's typically cheaper to buy, or you can even make it yourself.
LOW FAT
Not only is oat milk lactose-free and full of many vitamins and minerals, but if you are watching your weight, you will be happy to know that it is extremely low in fat. According to Fatsecret.com, one serving of oat milk contains only 2.5g of fat, and it has no saturated fat at all. Comparatively, one serving of whole milk contains 8g of fat and 5g of saturated fat. If you are worried about weight gain, you will be glad to know that oat milk is also lower in calories than many other types of milk.
CHOLESTEROL FREE
Since oat milk is made only from grains, it is a great option for vegetarians and vegans. Another benefit of drinking a grain-based beverage: no cholesterol; compare that with regular whole milk from cows, which contains 24mg of cholesterol per serving.

I use protein powder anyway in my shakes so its no real loss, and I am after the healthy fats more than the protein content

I love Shakeology. People just need to give the new Superfood formula a chance. I didn't like the original formula the first week I drank it and then I became addicted. Just give it time and let your taste buds get used to it. Nothing matches Shakeology when it comes to ingredients.

FYI - They have changed the Shakeology formula again right around Christmas time. Guess enough people complained. It tastes A LOT better now! I was going to cancel on my old one too

Have you tried the "Customer Approved" Chocolate Formula?
