    That being said, I quit shakeology because it isn't anything special. I just wanted to try it for myself. It costs way too much for what it is.

    This, IMO sums it up nicely...

    It's just calories that make you feel full. It's good if you have cravings or feel like you are going to overeat because drinking this will satisfy you for hours. The taste isn't good with just the powder and water. I always have to add skim milk. It isn't as sweet and amazing as a milkshake... of course I'd rather have a real milkshake. lol But at least this is healthier. It has a weird aftertaste. I mean I don't think it's worth the money really, but it's a nice snack that makes you feel full.

    Everybody is different, but I like it. I will not attribute my weight loss to shakeology because just like everyone has said: "there is no magic drink!" ..... and I don't want to downgrade my HARD WORK!

    It is however very delicious and offers a lot of nutrition. I have it first thing in the morning otherwise I wouldn't eat until about 3-4 hours later - not good! I have noticed an increase in energy and decrease in cravings tho, depending on what you mix it with it can feel like a treat. :)

    ..... I should also add that what shakeology I have is from a free sample, still debating on actually buying it.

    Not necessarily... skipping breakfast I mean.

    Have any of you tried the strawberry flavor? What is it like? The vanilla was a huge disappointment. It doesn't taste anything like vanilla. It's like a bland, plain flavor.

    OR because by the time I get to work and have time for breakfast I am SUPER hungry and then end up filing up on things I shouldn't be eating anyway.

    Like I said before, I got a FREE SAMPLE and I really liked it. Although I would not pay $119/month for a product when I can find many comparable in store for less than 1/2 the price, I did enjoy it when it lasted!

    Does anyone know of a sensible replacement to the Shakeology? I did like the fact that it kept me full for hours, but I would like to find a less expensive brand that could do the same thing. Any suggestions on protein powders?

    It's funny how some of the people on this site that bollock people for using meal replacements themselves claim they cannot function or work out without their daily pint of pea protein, raw snake eggs and whale sperm. But that's different. Apprently.
