Why I think Shakeology is so awesome and I vomit my whole story on them...

I wanted to share something I feel is important. My wife posted about it on Facebook a while back and it made me think, there are a lot of people who are dealing with very similar issues. How can it help them too? If you relate in some way to her, I hope you find this helpful.


“Because a lot of my friends ask me why I think Shakeology is so awesome and I vomit my whole story on them, I've decided to do a little series called "Why I LOVE Shakeology." My #1 reason is: There is NO SUGAR or even FAKE SUGAR for that matter, in it except the naturally occurring sugar from the fruits in it and then the naturally sweet Stevia Root. Most of you know how "anti-sugar" I am, but most of you don't know why. A few years ago, I decided I was sick of being on Depression Meds and after realizing how much of an impact eating sugar had on my mental health, I decided to cut it out of my eating. Unfortunately for me, I have a MAJOR Sweet tooth. It was super hard to avoid the temptation. A few months later, some friends of ours, Eric & Chandra introduced us to Beachbody & Shakeology. I was SUPER skeptical. I wasn't sure it was really worth the money for "one of those shakes." So my awesome husband made an executive decision and took the leap for me. I'm forever grateful that he did. Shakeology tricks me into thinking that I AM getting a treat...(My chocolate Milkshake) and I can avoid crap because I don't feel like I'm being deprived. So that is my #1 reason, I get a treat still without really eating treats. PS. Everything you see in this picture IS IN SHAKEOLOGY, but we'll talk about that later.” - Rachel B.

NY Jets WR,  Brandon Marshall hits rookie weight after Fixing his meal plan.

According to an ESPN article, Brandon Marshall is down to "230 pounds, his rookie weight--13 pounds lighter than the start of the off season." After deciding to drop weight before training he and his wife were on vacation and got sucked into, or rather inspired by an infomercial about the, the 21-Day Fix workout and meal plan. In addition to the 21-Day Fix, an Extreme version has been taking the diet and fitness stage with tremendous success promoting portion control. 21-Day Fix Extreme is designed for those who desire a more rigorous workout than the proceeding 21-Day Fix, yet is still focused around controlling portions and managing a healthy meal plan.

Marshall, mentioned it was "pretty cool" and bought into the plan discussing how lighter weight means easier on the joints and faster on his feet.

His description of the 21-Day Fix was, "you can control what you're putting in your body. You can control whether that's the wrong foods, fried foods, how much food you're putting in. The more you're aware of that and the better you take care of your body, you put yourself and your team in a better chance to win."
