I love the fact that it has ...It is a great drink. I love the fact that it has fruits/vegetables in it, is a meal replacement drink, is a vitamin replacement and a protein drink all in one. And, its only about 150 calories/serving (if you don't add anything to it). Its all natural with no artificial anything, and is still pretty low on the glycemic index. I typically add some almond milk and some PB2 to the chocolate flavor. I did just order the strawberry flavor (vegan) and that should arrive this week...I've heard only positive things about this flavor!<br /><br />I know the price point is scary for some, but I am now ordering 1 chocolate and 1 strawberry every month. If its auto-ship, there is no shipping cost (and of course you can cancel at any time with a simple email). I pay about $89 each for the chocolate (strawberry is slightly more), because I'm a "coach" (and the "coach" benefit just costs $15). So, you can see that becoming a coach is worthwhile for the discount alone if you want shakeology. <br /><br />There are also two package options. One is a bag that covers 30 servings, and one is a bag that has 24 serving sized portions individually packaged. I go for the big bag, simply because it makes economic sense.<br /><br />So, $89 + $96 + $15 = $200 ....thats a breakfast for me and Joe every day for a month, so it works out to about $3/meal. We occassionally will use one for dinner instead if we had a big lunch (and the kids deserve a special McD visit that evening). <br /><br />That being said, if you have 2-3 servings and it simply isn't right for you, they will give you your money back. So, there is no risk involved. That being said, I would not order the greenberry...its fine mixed with other things, but I don't want to hide the flavors of anything...and some people dislike it, while others think its just ok. <br /><br />Here is the ingredient sheet for the strawberry flavor, which was just released:<br />http://images.beachbody.com/tbb/store/shakeology/SHK_30%20Day_Vegan_BackPanel1_eng_020812.pdf<br /><br />Let me know if you have any additional questions.Nannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323205633182376388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863096669741852583.post-65869302444296712762012-02-21T06:14:06.211-05:002012-02-21T06:14:06.211-05:00I have heard so many amazing things about the vita...I have heard so many amazing things about the vitamix! I have only just started one doing a meal replacement a day with a smoothie, so I don't think I have "earned" the right to own one, but I can't wait to hear how awesome yours is. Also - read about the Shakeology products, and they sound great, but is there any kind of starter package that is not so costly?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
