Hey, she said she wanted reviews from actual customers, not distributors. I don't think you qualify to give a non-biased review.
You always pop into the Advocare threads with something awesome to say about it. And seeing as how the OP doesn't have access to free Herbalife or discounted Advocare, I don't see how your review is helpful.0 -
My breakfast this morning was Greek yogurt. Other mornings, I do cottage cheese and canned peaches. Lots of protein, super filling, takes 2 minutes to prepare (I prep it at the beginning of the week and take on the go in the mornings). You'll stretch your dollar a lot more that way than spending your hard-earned money on gimmicky products.0

I didn't say anything "awesome" about Advocare. I simply stated that I'm a distributor, that I actually use the Herbalife because it's free though obviously not the best tasting, and that taste wise, which is what the OP was asking for opinions on, Shakeology tastes the best. I don't get free or discounted Shakeology. Therefore, my opinion is relevant. If I was spouting how amazing Advocare is, that'd be different. But I'm not. I'm giving my unbiased opinion that Shakeology is the best tasting out of the three that she asked about.-5 -

1. Why are you trying to eat breakfast? Do you get hungry for lunch very early? Do you feel drained? Do you snack?
2. Have you considered making your own protein shakes/buying protein shakes if you're trying to hit protein macros. I think lite chocolate muscle milk tastes good when you cut it with soy milk (it's a bit thick).
3. Have you considered snack food? I personally prefer carbs in the morning. Granola bars are easy to toss in your car in a pinch and eat on the go. High fiber keeps me full longer.

I tried Shakeology for a bit; I thought it tasted pretty good .. *shrug*0

and for breakfast I drink a protein shake with Almond milk and 6tbsp of egg white and that holds me for a few hours, make it every night so I just grab and go in the morning0

I'm not going to comment on the 3 programs mentioned, but I will speak to the lack of time - overnight oats! Make them the night before, chuck them in the fridge and then in the morning, eat - or nuke and eat!
As well, a slow cooker for oatmeal, or slow cooker french toast works.
Frozen breakfast burritos, breakfast quiches.. you can make the lack of time work for you with a little bit of prep work the evening before!0 -
I do not sell Advocare but I am a customer. I use the MNS3 supplement packs. It is kind of expensive. Of course the girl I buy from wants me to start selling it but I'm not ready for that. MNS3 works best for me. if been taking them for almost 6 months. I've lost 54 lbs. It helps curb my appetite and I don't get the strong crazy cravings I use to. It has probiotics in it along with stuff like garlic, Omega 3, green tea extract and all the other typical vitamins and minerals. Spark is great but it to much for me with the MNS3. I have tried their breakfast bars but I only buy them on sale. I know people say don't buy these type of things because it's expensive. But I have a cousin who is a doctor. She has been telling me for years that if you want good supplements you have to spend the money. The stuff in the drugstores are a weaker version. That's why they are cheaper.
I'm not into meal replacement shakes. I do make eggs in the microwave sometimes. Hungry Girl has several recipes or you can Google mug eggs. It only takes 5 minutes prep included. I use whole eggs but you can use egg whites or egg beaters.0 -

While I don't discredit the great job you have done losing 54lbs, it is pretty common knowledge that the ingredients in these products are sub par. Whether a doctor told you that or not (tip: doctors don't know much about nutrition) makes little difference.
Not all doctors are ignorant to nutrition, though I do believe a lot are. My cousin (the doctor) and her husband who is also a doctor do study nutrition among a lot of other things. They are big into eating organic, no GMO, they are big into natural remedies.

Just ignore them. They have nothing better to do
But...there was nothing "mean" about my post. It is known that those products use crappy ingredients, and it is known that most doctors don't know much about nutrition. I don't see how I said that in any way that would offend the person I was replying too.

I didn't pick your opinion apart. I told you your opinion is wrong because my opinion, in this case, is actually a fact, and you can't argue facts
Just remember Christopher Columbus discovering America was once a fact. Everyone finds a article. Reads some research and takes it for fact. It's all about what you believe.0 -

I'm flattered you pay THAT much attention to me to know exactly what I do. I really am.
Only because the Ignore button is not a available on the new forums.

You're right. Just make sure you detox sufficiently in the Spring.-1 -
None of the above. Only know Herbalife, but if the other two are a similar thing, they're pyramid/ponzi scheme overpriced rubbish. Avoid like the plague. Proper nutrition, proper exercise.0

Nobody says you have to eat breakfast. Save your calories for lunch and dinner.

It's winter, how else am I going to grow out a proper double coat?
You're right. Just make sure you detox sufficiently in the Spring.
Roger that, I'll put lay down a bottle of sailor jerry's this weekend in order for it to properly age.-1 -
I second the breakfast burrito idea. I'm currently eating a brand called "Good Food Made Simple". Wrap burrito in paper towel, microwave, eat. Total time: 90 seconds.
And so good.
I also have protein powder handy. Throw banana in Nutribullet, throw in a scoop of chocolate protein powder, blend. Total time: 60 seconds. (Edited to add: I also add milk. Doing it without liquid isn't a good idea, lol. My fingers are too fast.)
(I work full time + do graduate school, so I know exactly what you mean when you say "no time"!) But, yeah... those manufactured shakes aren't really a good idea, I think.0 -

It helps curb my appetite and I don't get the strong crazy cravings I use to. It has probiotics in it along with stuff like garlic, Omega 3, green tea extract and all the other typical vitamins and minerals. Spark is great but it to much for me with the MNS3. I have tried their breakfast bars but I only buy them on sale. I know people say don't buy these type of things because it's expensive. But I have a cousin who is a doctor. She has been telling me for years that if you want good supplements you have to spend the money. The stuff in the drugstores are a weaker version. That's why they are cheaper.
I'm not into meal replacement shakes. I do make eggs in the microwave sometimes. Hungry Girl has several recipes or you can Google mug eggs. It only takes 5 minutes prep included. I use whole eggs but you can use egg whites or egg beaters.
While I don't discredit the great job you have done losing 54lbs, it is pretty common knowledge that the ingredients in these products are sub par. Whether a doctor told you that or not (tip: doctors don't know much about nutrition) makes little difference.
Not all doctors are ignorant to nutrition, though I do believe a lot are. My cousin (the doctor) and her husband who is also a doctor do study nutrition among a lot of other things. They are big into eating organic, no GMO, they are big into natural remedies.
You are all free to have a opinion. We all have them. I rarely reply to posts and this is why. The original poster is asking for opinions. We shouldn't be picking each others opinion's apart.
Just ignore them. They have nothing better to do
But...but....aren't you doing the same thing? You share your opinions on these boards quite frequently.
Yeah, I post frequently. I don't rip apart/nit pick people's opinions. There's a big difference.
Yes, cause telling someone to ignore a poster (me) when I said nothing negative to the girl isn't nit picky at all....

What do you like best taste wise? What seems to be the beat for a breakfast shake?
how about just eat better? Why do you need to spend a crap ton of money on those things? Call me crazy, but all of that seems like a waste....
