    Vega One French Vanilla. I add a scoop of greek yogurt or half a banana sometimes.

    I realize your original post was two years ago and I too didn't like the Chocolate Shakeology at first, but I realized that it was because I HATE whey protein. I tried their new Vegan options and am in LOVE with the product now.

    The only flavor of Shakeology I like is Vanilla, all others are gross. For chocolate I use Vega One.

    I tried Shakeology a few years ago and thought it was disgusting. Also did a number on my digestive system. Never again.

    I just started with Optimum Nutrition 100% whey rich double chocolate and vanilla ice cream. I like them both. Not gritty at all, and I just use protein powders in water to save calories. I use as meal replacements up to two times a day.

    Use some milk, oats and protein powder to make your own meal replacement shake. Blend in veggies if you want to get your fiber too. Feel free to customise and add dried raisins and cranberries for sweet surprises. I love meal replacement shakes because it is easy and convenient to store and prepare. It definitely helps to keep me on track onto my fitness goals. I can drink the meal replacement shakes during my lectures and maintain my focus as i won't feel hungry. I hope this helps! :)

    I did the three day Shakeology cleanse and did not lose a pound. I think that you need to be someone really overweight and a bad eater for it to work for you. I am a mom of four/5'2" inches, 124 pounds with 25% body fat. I did not lose a pound and I followed the plan very carefully. I did pee a ton though.

    I don't have this every day, but occasionally I replace lunch with a smoothie consisting of 1 bottle of Glucerna chocolate drink, a frozen banana, 2 tbsp organic peanut butter, and 1.5 tbsp flaxseed, blended up with 1-1.5 cups fresh spinach leaves. This is a great way to eat your leafy greens, and it tastes really good.
