My Shakeology Story

I actually found Team Beachbody shortly before SHAKEOLOGY  became available. My husband and I at that time were trying to eat more fruits and veggies and taking proper supplements as we both had just started using our new home fitness DVDS! I was using Turbo Jam  and he was using P90X!  So we ordered supplements from Team Beachbody and were shopping at a local market for fresh fruits and veggies which was very cheap there since everything was grown locally so we were pretty happy and felt we were doing a pretty good thing for our new healthy lifestyle!  Then we started noticing newsletters  about this *Shakeology*   and adds about it on the website and I came across a short video about it and   re-watched it with my husband  and he said that it sounded  like they were trying to say “Drink this shake instead of eating fruits and veggies”  We both did not like the sound of this and were both turned off by the idea. Then I looked at the price $120.oo bucks a month! Are they freakin CRAZY!!!! I’m going to a local market and getting great prices on my FRESH fruits and veggies! No way am I giving that up for a $120.00 shake!

A year went by and the fad of those fresh fruits and veggie long gone wore off! We were eating tons of them in the beginning but after a while they would end up sitting in the fridge  to long and would spoil and have to be thrown out! I HATE wasting stuff so we stopped buying  them!  Then one day I got an email from Team Beachbody Success Stories and they wanted to enter  my Turbo Jam success story for possible use in there new “Turbo Jam” show (btw i never got in it) and I signed all the release forms and everything and then they told me to make sure I got my abs looking really good over the next few months so I right away contacted my coach to tell him about this and to ask him for his advice on what I could do to get my abs looking really great and he suggested that I start using ‘SHAKEOLOGY” and that this shake  was GREAT for reducing that stubborn belly fat sooooooo I ordered it right away! ME, the one who was totally against it from day one and thought it was WAY to expensive!  BUT of course by this time I was a Team Beachbody Coach so the shakes for me were only $89.00 bucks with free shipping and no tax because its considered an “whole food”  so I just couldn’t believe it that I had actually just got on my account and ordered itbut I wanted those GREAT ABS!!!!  Now my son, who was 17 years old at that time was so excited! He always told me that he needed to drink this shake  because he didn’t eat enough fruits and veggie! He was much more open minded then I was about it! We received our first bag of chocolate SHAKOLOGY in about 5 days! My 17 year old was the first to open it! He was so excited and yelled ITS HERE, ITS HERE! and ripped the bag open and chocolate powder went every where all over the kitchen counter! LOL  In just one week we were both completely HOOKED!  We had more energy and getting threw the workouts easier and I also able to  cut back on the supplements I was buying!  My husband and son still like to take the P90X supplements! Then  after a month my son and I were kinda fighting over that one bag as there wasn’t enough for two people to have a shake once a day so my son ordered his own bag! Then my husband started drinking it and got his own bag! Then my oldest son ordered a bag as well!  We had become a ”SHAKOLOGY DRINKING FAMILY”

After a few months went by we started to notice that we were buying less groceries since we were replacing one meal a day with SHAKEOLOGY plus when we took a shake  with us to work to drink on our lunch break that saved us money also! so now  I was realizing that even tho  SHAKEOLOGY originally seemed way to expensive I was actually spending WAY more money on tons of other stuff  that I had replaced with the  shakes! For example, when I would eat out for my lunch break I would spend any where from $5-7 bucks for a lunch which 5 times a week would come to $100-140 bucks a month! Plus that daily Starbucks every day that I DIDNT need any more came to a CRAZY $140.00 bucks a month!  So I just never took the time to figure out all my food costs until  we all wanted to be able to drink  this shake  every day .  We also figured out we cut about 50 bucks a week on our grocery bill, a savings of $200 bucks a month right there alone!  SHAKOLOGYcomes to about $3/4 dollars a day depending on if your a coach or a customer and that sounds a whole lot cheaper then all that other stuff  we were buying!  BUT the cost is not even really the important thing to me any more! The true importance to me is how it makes me feel!  All the health benefits!  And for me the “increased energy” was the most important thing for me!  And I am happy to report that I have not been sick one single day since I have been drinking this regularly !  NOT EVEN A COLD!!!  This past winter all my co-workers came down with all sorts of colds and a few had the flu and one was off work for 3 weeks for the flu and I was not sick that entire time! Not even a cough or a sniffle!  So I then I  made another discovery! Because of this product I have not missed any days of  work!  And in our current bad economy less time missed from work is VERY important! Not to mention less visits to the doctors office! Lots of us have lost health benefits so who can afford or even wants to spend money on doctor visits or meds?!?!? NO ONE!  SO  I am getting healthier on this shake   and my family as well! Plus I  also  have been turning my friends  onto SHAKEOLOGYas well! It is definitely a must have for EVERYONE!!

After starting Shakeology I discovered that I had Fibromyalgia and that I had experienced Fibro symptoms dating all the way back to my grade school days!  And for any one else who has Fibro, you can clearly see that shakeology helps with many of the symptoms and just the energy boost alone is enough to make it worth it!  That helps to get you out of bed or off the sofa and just start doing stuff! House work, walk the dog, play a board game with the kids, start an exercise program, cook a family dinner and do on!  When you increase your energy, you improve the quality of your life by *100 %”  and that my friends, is  PRICELESS!

Lots of People who dont exercise have  reported weight loss on Shakeology  so this product is great for those people who are unable to exercise a lot PLUS its a great way for someone who may have gotton to used to a workout program and stopped losing weight! Shakeology will help you get over that slump!

 
Order a 30 day bottom of the bag money back guarantee, No Questions asked! If you don’t feel completely amazing at at the end of 30 days then just send it on back for a full refund! So that means you would technically be able to try the shake for 30 days FREE! If for any reason at the end of 30 days you dont really it was really worth your money get a full refund*less shipping and handling of not ordered on HD

Shakeology Rocks! Especially when you compare it side by side with McDonalds. It’s a no brainer!

I agree. If you are serious about getting healthy then when you cut out the junk food, fast food and soda’s you may be buying, then you can afford shakeology. I was spending over $100 a month on fast food. That doesn’t count the money I spent at the grocery on all the unhealthy stuff I was buying.

I felt the same way about Shakeology you did. My hubby wanted to try it to lose weight so I bought it for him for X-mas. I started drinking it later and got lots more energy. I didn’t need to buy vitamins anymore or those pills for your sore knees (mine quit hurting) so it saved me money in the long run too.

Awesome article Christina! Where I work people have been sick with colds and the flu this spring. I usually get something myself in the Spring. But not htis year since I started drinking Shakeology. The immune booster in it is really great. I have actually felt better and not as stressed as I was last Winter. I am ready for the Tropical flavor!

It’s so healthy to drink that I would think that it has to keep your immune system built up. It’s what nature does! :)

I LOVE IT!!! I don’t know how anyone could NOT want to use this amazing product and I actually let me wife talk me out of it for months. Finally, I just ordered it and shipped it to the office instead of the house and I haven’t been able to give it up since!

I started using Shakeology last February and was very skeptical at first. However, I noticed that my energy actually increased while my weight and cholesterol levels dropped down to healthy levels. I now use Shakeology to replace one meal every day and have noticed that I no longer crave sweets, and I feel full and satisfied in between meals. The ingredients in this product are totally incredible as is the quality. I have not been able to find another product anywhere on the market that even comes close to providing the same level of quality and nutrition I get from Shakeology. I am totally impressed and am a very satisfied customer.

Love the stuff. So glad I was introduced to it. Just think of all the money I save having it for lunch everyday. Imagine if I ate out everyday for lunch compared to one servering of Shakeology. Tropical will be here soon too. Wahoo!

I love the healing properties of Shakeology and experimenting with new recipes. I feel great drinking it everyday and have been losing weight steadily.

I watched your video making the laundry soap, and have been thinking I’d like to try that as soon as I have a little extra time to whip up a batch!
