I don't do shakeology but I use another program but we have a recommended food list to follow. And not trying to win anyone over, but pyramid schemes don't involve the exchange of product. Google it.0

It's a MultLevel marketing company. The "scam" comes in cause their product sucks and they are sold by coaches who don't know diddly and try to sell said crappy product to gullible people who also don't know anything.0

I like protein shakes every now and then... but Shakeology just tastes bad.0

I love Shakeology. Good flavors and they contain alot of micronutrients (vitamins). I think it has a lot of sugar but it has been 3 years since I last had one. I have only tried the chocolate one. In my honest opinion, there are better protein powders out there for you. You dont NEED Shakeology to do P90x or any of their programs. You can get by with a better quality product. :-)0

I have. It's a scam. There is no reason a bloating protein powder should cost $130 a bag. Spend your money elsewhere. I am sure your sister in law would love nothing more than to sell you the stuff because she is making money off it.
I tried Shakeology and Isagenix. Neither did jack squat to help me lose weight. With Isagenix, I even gained a few pounds! I've been told that using one or the other is supposed to help lower your grocery store bill, but I never saw any sort of savings.

I have heard of people not enjoying it, so I would say give it a real chance for thirty days. Then you will really know if you want to continue or stop. I continued. There are so many different recipes you can do with the skates too so you won't get bored with the same 'ol thing every day. It sounds like you are interested, so give it a shot.

I tried it and felt dirty, I was swindled and nothing magical happened, I will try and wash off all my shame and regret in the shower.0 -
Oh my god! $130 a bag? If I had known, I would have told off the person trying to sell it to me even worse!
My internet is a steady stream of multilevel marketers in their various cults trying to push their crap.
Weight loss is not sexy, it's not always fun, but it is not as expensive as the industry would like you to think.

I didn't buy it but tried a friends, it was the chocolate and it tasted horrible and left a disgusting aftertaste. No ty. Plus $130 for a month supply, no, no, no...0

I tried shakeology when I did the 30-day fix. I found that if I mixed it with strawberries or added a little peanut butter it worked as a breakfast or snack and occasionally as dinner if it was late and I didn't feel like cooking. However it is expensive and just by ordering it you end up on autoship and when you try and cancel you get the hard sell. Fortunately my coach warned me about the hard sell and after saying "no" a couple times I said "I'm at work and need to get off the phone", and that shut them up. If you want to give it a try then go for it, but its not magic and doesn't really make it easier to lose weight.0

Personally, I love it. I tried it for a week and found that I lost weight quickly, my skin was clearer and my hormones got back in balance. I also switched a clean eating diet at the time, so I didn't trust it was the Shakeology. So after my trial packs ended, I just continued what I was doing with the clean eating. My skin turned sallow within 2 days, I started spotting after 4 and I became moodier, with less energy. When I was on it, I lost 4 lbs. It has been 2 weeks now and I barely lost 1 lb just from clean eating. It is very nutrient dense and has some ayurvedic herbs that help with balancing hormones, mood, energy levels, etc. I don't think it has a bad taste and I find it very versatile to use with fruity or chocolate and nuts. I just got my first bag today, so you can check in on me to see how it is doing for my continued weight loss and such because my diary is open to the public. BTW...loved it so much and wanted to get it cheaper, so I signed up as a coach. Costs about $90 a bag for about a 30 day supply that way.-7

Think about this way: Even if it does work, and you lose the weight, what are you going to do then? If you don't keep drinking the shakes for the rest of your life, you'll gain the weight right back.
So, why don't you just learn what you need to do to get the weight off and keep it off? (hint: it has to do with eating less calories)0 -

It would be cheaper to find the ingredients that are helping with your moods and go to the health shop than this. It really sounds like overpriced multivitamins. All the multivitamins food and gym membership I could buy with 90 dollars0 -
I joined a bootcamp few weeks back which actually is in the disguise of Herbalife cult. I am abit of a hypocrite enjoying the free workout with no intentions of buying overpriced shakes and vitamins. The coaches are just deceiving people who dont know any better. The real message they should be giving out is eat well and exercise but all I can hear is there is a shake for everything.
THEY JUST WANT YOUR MONEY0 -

Anyone who calls themselves a coach should be teaching this method. Not selling u a shake for breakfast and then a shake for lunch. I find the whole thing really annoying.0 -

The minions would not think about endorsing this crap.
