Shake shake - shakeology

Okay you all know I have been on a diet rampage of trying to see what is best for me & my schedule. And if you've followed me on twitter, instagram, or even on my post from Saturday - you know I failed at the 7 day diet. I was preeeetty disappointed in myself, but I am about to be honest with you.

My stomach has been all sorts of messed up. I completed 2.5 days - so in that time period I only had fruits & veggies & then a pretzel that did me in. For the past 6 days now my stomach has been on edge. So in all honesty - I am kind of glad that pretzel was in front of my face. 

But you see we still have all this lovely fruits & veggies around the house, so I am still eating healthy, I promise. Still no fast food but I have had about 3 pops in a week & a half - that is good for me.

Now, on to Shakeology. I would say most bloggers have somewhere passed this word on someone else's blog or twitter or shoot instagram. I know I saw it right away when I started blogging. But I wasn't into healthy things then.

So I have talked about Allison at Feeding My Temple before, but she supplied us with 2 free samples of Shakeology. I got in the mail the day I failed my diet plan.
 
{So of course I had to immediately try it - it was more than just fruits & veggies}

It smelled delicious, like a chocolate shake - I only added milk & ice then blended it. I drank as much as I could because like I said, I wasn't at ease. 

And now today, I added a banana in with the mix & oh my gosh - I am in love. It's like a chocolate banana shake.

Now I am going to give you the nitty gritty of this amazing shake.

What's in it you ask?
  • Protein from whey, which is highly absorbable, gives you 8 amino acids that help you build muscle, lose weight, support brain function, & keep your skin & bones healthy.  
  • 23 vitamins & minerals to support optimum health.
  • Antioxidants to boost the immune system & help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, blood pressure, & stroke.
  • Phytonutrients to support immune function & have anti-inflammatory properties. Many phytonutrients have antioxidant properties as well.
  • Prebiotics & digestive enzymes to support digestive & immune health. 
Shakeology works two ways when taken daily. It helps your body gently eliminate toxins while allowing for better absorption of the essential nutrients you need. It will also reduce cravings, help you feel more energized, keep you full, & it is scientifically proven to reduce "bad" cholesterol levels by an average of 38%. 

Shakeology is GMO free, casein free, gluten free, corn free, honey free, MSG free, shellfish free, yeast free, peanut free, excitiotoxin free, penicillin free, synthetic vitamin free, & artificial sweetener free.  

   

I don't think you'll be too disappointed in trying the samples & then going from there! I signed up for Beach Body with Allison & for a trial sample of a 30 day of supply of Shakeology & Brazil Butt work out for only $14.95! Why would anyone want to pass that up? Plus it comes with healthy meal plans & what to eat when you are OUT.
