    There's tons of success stories, you don't need expensive shakes or pills. Eat less move more works. I still have a long way to go but I'll share my pictures. I started in January 2013.

    Started at about 285 lbs

    My husband's employee's wife sold it for a few years. She lost some weight, I'm guessing 1/3 of the weight she wanted to lose. Then she stopped selling/drinking them and in the last 3-4 months and she gained it all back. Yup, They are a band-aid not a solution.

    Those type of shake pyramid schemes are a fad diets. Yeah, you may lose weight at first but if you don't learn how to eat balanced meals containing real food then when you stop, you'll be like a fish out of water. Example, The girl mentioned above.

    - This is not to be confused with protein shakes. I drink a breakfast protein shake almost every day. My breakfast is usually around 450-600 calories so its not to lose weight really. LOL. Damn, I could have an egg mcmuffin and hash browns for that -Not that I eat that oil soaked crap :)

    So I guess to me, protein shakes are meant for the serious exerciser and not for people who are simply trying to lose weight on them.

    I think the vast majority of people who successfully lost weight did so without shakeology.

    I don't use anything diet related, meaning pills, shakeology etc. Just eating within allotted calories and exercise.

    I did Insanity without shakeology and lost 13lbs. I was kinda thinking the other day "what if" I bought shakeology? but then I saw one comment here saying it's a band-aid and not a solution so thank you for that info @dauntlessness :flowerforyou:

    Shakeology is a meal replacement and I guess if I had relied on that I would probably have lost my amazing Insanity results afterwards. But it really depends, if you want the nutrition coming from it and not just make it as a weightloss solution or whatever I guess Shakeology is okay

    I hate the taste of Shakeology...lost all my weight eating normally and making my own protein shakes if I want one.

    (I have been doing the Team Beachbody workouts though: Insanity, P90X, T25 and soon Body Beast) :love:

    I came into this lifestyle change and jumped in like a mad woman ...never worked out and started with insanity ...along with it came the shakeo ....I was a low eater non nutrient full of fats before so I have to admit for people not doing well in that department it was a great "crutch" to get me where I am today ...I no longer drink the shake I am at a point I would rather eat the food than drink my calories ;) although I didn't drink it hoping it would burn my fat for me , I drank it because it offered nutrients I was needing ;) and it tasted good ...needless to say I haven't drank it in over 2 months and still losing and feel awesome ;)
