Will someone talk to me about Shakeology?

Oh boy, you're about to get your email flooded with coaches wanting you to buy from them, lol.

Shakeology itself is a protein shake: mostly whey with probiotics, enzymes, and a bunch of "superfoods". It can be used as a meal replacement or with meals if you need extra calories.


Here is info from the beachbody site about the workout DVD's:

==================

This set of 2 DVDs contains a 30-minute workout and a 50-minute workout. Start by doing the 30-minute workout three times a week. Then rotate in the 50-minute workout once a week. Go at your own pace, but don't be afraid to push yourself. Soon, you'll notice more muscle tone and fewer food cravings. Aim to get strong enough to do The 50 three times a week.

2 workouts

* The 30

This is a balanced combination of cardiovascular intervals to burn calories, and strength moves to tone your muscles and build your metabolism.

* The 50

As your body becomes stronger and more efficient, The 50 will accelerate your progress—your strength, cardiovascular fitness, and flexibility—in an easy-to-follow format.

The program

* Just replace one meal a day with Shakeology, exercise three times a week, and follow a balanced eating plan. It's that simple.

* You'll lower cholesterol levels, lose pounds, and shed inches.

* Participants in an independent study who combined The Shake, The Workout, and our Eating Plan for 90 days1 dropped 10 pounds and 2 inches off their waistline. They also improved their digestion, increased their energy levels, and lowered their total cholesterol on average by 30% and LDL ("bad") cholesterol by 38% on average.*

The workouts are $30 and a tub of shakeology is just under $120 for 30 servings. You can get also get the dvd's free if you sign up for autoshipping.

Oh boy, you're about to get your email flooded with coaches wanting you to buy from them, lol.

:laugh: That was my first thought as well!!

Hi Michellerw1!
Ghanie is right you are about to get a boat load of responses from other coaches. He is also right as far as how he has explained the details of Shakeology.
Here is my personal testimony:
There are 2 things about me that I have always dealt with and that is being a snacker and issues with my digestive system. Prior to Shakeology it would take me forever to have an elimination (literally days) but I was so impressed with what Shakeology did for me drinking it became my morning routine. The other thing was it curbed my snack cravings (cravings period). Because Shakeology helped with my digestive issues and snack attacks, I lost like 5lbs when I first started. I finally can say that I am regular and no longer a snacker! I will admit Greenberry has a distinct taste but it has become my favorite. There is also choc as well. Hope this helps!

I thought the DVD sets were over $100? Least that's what I see on the nightly infomercial, dunno, not something I've tried, I just remember some members saying how costly they felt they were.

Yea I think it is, 3 paymens of $30-ish...?

I think you're getting the Shakeology DVDs mixed up with other Beachbody fitness program DVDs. I have never seen those advertised on TV and actually didn't know they existed until I placed my first Shakeology order.

The other programs, P90X, Insanity and several others do cost around $120 for the DVD sets. But those are full fitness programs as opposed to some exercises to increase activity for Shakeology users wanting to lose weight. I have the DVDs because they came free with my home direct order. If you're already active or pursuing some type of exercise I don't think the specific Shakeology DVDs are necessary.

Oh, ok, you're right as I didn't realize the shake mix had a DVD set. Wow, lots to the Beachbody program I don't know.

Thanks for clarifying :flowerforyou:

Can someone give me a idea of what shakeology taste like?

i really thought the choc tasted like dark chocolate........and im not a huge fan. but they have a recipe that you can add in peanut butter and that made it taste better!
the green one does taste very much like wheat grass. i like wheat grass and liked the green shake but definately thought it would be better with berries added. im sure a coach would be happy to send you a free sample!

TatianaB... you can always return it if you don't like it. Contact your coach and tell them that you would like to try Greenberry (if you didn't sign up for a mix shipment) and they can have it changed for you. There are lots of recipes on the shakeology site that taste wonderful. My favorite is milk and PB... tastes just like a Reeses PB cup!

Eating a healthy, low saturated fat diet at a modest calorie deficit and doing aerobic exercise of at least 30 mins a day will get you the same results without having to shell out the dough....
