    haley, you stated
    "Whether by working out alone, Shakeology only or a combination of the 2 (I believe it is a combo - but more related to workout dedication) my BP has reduced significantly (to the point where I am going to talk to Dr. next visit to reduce or stop BP meds), my cholesterol has dropped from 226 to 165, my HDL (good cholesterol) has gone up from 54 to 71 - all in the span of 8 - 9 months.

    Now to try and answer ... I do not have any samples so I cannot assist but I would not suggest trying either the Greenberry or Chocolate alone. If you do get samples google for recipes. A couple of tasty recipes (in my opinion) are below: "



    From Lloyd to Haley

    Congratulations on your sucess...........
    I am fortunate as well, my Blood Pressure went frrom 165/90 to 110 / 65

    Excellent LDL and HDL as well as total cholseterol is 131

    Triglicirides are 89, dropped from 110

    pretty good numbers with 120 lbs dropped in one year and 18 inches off my wasit line, read my bio, its pretty informative..........

    I never took one single Shakeology drink , or any other kind of protein drink. I did it the old fashioned way.........Good nutrition, exercise staying forcused and good nights sleep.............Lloyd

    ^^great job lloydrt.

    Thats the way to do it. proper diet > any supplement.
  • 1. Letting someone know before they get ripped off is generally the right thing to do. I don't like seeing people being taken advantage of by supplement companies that market things to people who don't understand how they work.

    2. A protein shake along with a multivitamin and wheat grass would be both cheaper and I'd be willing to bet its just as beneficial. BeachBody has really managed to get a lot of clueless people to back up their supps. It blows my mind.


    They got me real good, signed up as a coach and everything. However, I'm not into it like that and I am not into pushing products on ppl. After i get the rest of my fitness programs from them, I am signing off, and getting rid of my coach, because she is only into you if you're helping her make money. By the way, Chocolate Shakeology is ok, but you will get bored with it after while and need something else anyway. I have a whole box, and now I can't stomach it anymore

    sounds like that Amway group...........its like they are brain washed, they want to recruit you, and then they advance to a higher position and you have to find 10 friends and so on, and so on...........Ponzi scheme.........

    ^^ JUST like amway.

    And it's a shame that they are so pushy because I've had a few of the drink mixes from an amway company. I think they're called nutrisweet or nutri something. They're little tubes you squeeze into water.
    Good stuff but I won't buy it because its overpriced due to the way the company works. And because the people are pushy and want you to become a seller.

    If shakeology was like half the price, and not made by beachbody, i'd probably use it.

    I bought it, i didn't particularly like the flavor, but i drank it cuz it was expensive, and it didnt really do anything except make me feel weird like caffine overload or something. I would never buy it again...and unless you add stuff to it, its very gagging. Try it before you buy it for sure!!

    No kidding. Do your own research and make your own decision.

    LOL I was a Coach before... I went Diamond Rank and everything.. I do believe in the workouts.. But I dont think $119 for a bag of Shakeology is worth it. You can find better things out there.. ;)

    Sorry, this follow-up post has been a long time coming. I've had my Shakeology samples for over a month now, and just got around to trying one this morning. I tried the chocolate, mixed with milk. I didn't "hate" it but I certainly won't drink it again. There was some chocolately flavor in there, but overall the taste was just off and weird -- I can't even describe it properly. Definitely not as good as Myoplex, flavor-wise. I poured it down the sink and made my usual protein powder/milk/strawberries smoothie.

    don't let the 'coaches' hear you say that.

    Shakeology is the greatest thing since sliced bread. just ask any of them.
