So first of all I will explain what shakeology is for those of you who do not know. Shakeology is made by Beachbody which makes fitness programs and nutritional supplements to aid in acheiving your fitness and weight loss goals. Shakeology is their latest product, it is a nutritional meal replacement shake it comes in Chocolate or Greenberry flavor. This is how it is advertised "SHAKEOLOGY, 70 healthy ingredients, one meal. You'd have to eat a huge bowl of fruits and vegetables to equal the nutritional value of one shakeology serving." Theres a lot more information on the benefits of shakeology but I won't post them here. If you want all of the information go to http://www.shakeology.com/. There are also recipes there for both flavors.
I received my order of Chocolate shakeology yesterday afternoon after eagerily anticipating its arrival to my door step, so OK it was actually in my mailbox. I waited till this morning to try it since I wanted it as my breakfast meal. I am not a breakfast person, give me my coffee and call it good was my motto. But this is not good for your body especially if you are trying to lose weight and get in shape. I can drink a meal replacement shake for breakfast much easier than actually eating something. I followed the directions on the bag, I used 8 oz. of 1% milk, 1 full scoop, and about 1/2 cup or so of ice and mixed it in my blender. I took my first taste and it wasn't bad not as great as I had hoped, but not bad. I would liken it to tasting chocolate cake batter without all of the sugar yet added, or cocoa puffs. Again it was not bad and I could drink it every morning as is, but there are alot of recipes out there for shakeology that are suppose to be awesome! So I will post them as I try them. For me I am more eager to find out what health benefits I will experience from drinking shakeology. I don't expect anything to happen immediatley, but when I do start to notice changes I will post them. Gotta go, I hear my daughter screaming for me....mommy slave signing off!
TO YOUR HEALTH!
