    Everything found in Shakeology is from whole or raw food sources.

    i'd rather just eat that food then...

    So, I just tried my first chocolate Shakeology today (a friend gave me a sample)... and I really must say I like Slim Fast a lot better.

    lol wut.

    slim fast is not even a remotely similar product to shakeology...

    shakeology is not even remotely similar product to actual food.

    Eat food people. Food works.

    i agree with this.

    Food has worked miracles thus far.

    I prefer chocolate cake made with real chocolate. IIFYM, then have it. No need for shakes.

    Couldn't agree more!!

    the point is that you'd have to go to south america, and asia to do it.

    I like to chew my food so I don't do either. And as far as Shakeology being natural..... that is not the way nature made those nutrients!

    So back to your original point... there is a lot of fillers and sugar is Slim Fast, that's why it taste so good! You should play around with recipes and find a good one to make yourself! It will save you money and be a lot healthier!

    This was a fun post to read! Thanks for fueling this fire!

    Shakeology has lots of nutrients in it and if you're body is not used to all the goodness then I think it takes awhile to get used to. It also really depends how you prepare your shake. Did you friend give you suggestions for making your sample?

    There really is no comparison between Shakeology and Slim Fast. Everything found in Shakeology is from whole or raw food sources. All the vitamins and minerals come from those super foods. Everything in Slim Fast is chemically processed and man made. I guess if your not big into where your food comes from then it doesn't matter, but you pretty much get what you pay for :)

    My friend told me to add...

    the 1 serving shakeology she gave me
    1 banana
    1-2 tbs of peanut butter
    1 cup milk
    1/2 cup water
    6-8 ice cubs
    and 1 tbs of vanilla extract or agave nectar

    Ain't nobody got time for that!:laugh:

    Sure they are. They're both nutritional shakes. It's really the marketing that's very different.

    says someone who's never compared the nutrition facts/ingredients list.

    they're not remotely similar.

    Indeed I have.

    Slim-fast:
    Calories 180
    Fat 6g
    Carbs 24g
    Protein 10g

    Shakeology:
    Calories 160
    Fat 2g
    Carbs 21g
    Protein 16g

    Not really very different. They're meal replacement shakes. Shakeology has a little less fat and more protein.

    calories, fat, carbs and protein isn't ingredients you DA. Sugar is the main ingredient in slim fast which obviously isn't healthy and they are trying to cover up the horrible aftertaste. cellulose gel... mmm found in ky lube... artificial sweeteners out the wazoo... yea that's healthy alright. of course you will lose weight drinking something under 200 calories for a meal, but doesn't mean it's healthy. you guys have some warped brains if you would drink something that is nutritionally bad for you in order to lose weight. just because you are desperate to do so doesn't mean u gotta take extreme measures and fill your body full of artificial crap that is going to do you more harm than good in the longrun.

    Neither... you can make your own shakes taste better for a lot less money.
