I have also been verbally attacked after making posts that simply stated Shakeology was out of my price range. I have noticed that every time the price is mentioned it is compared to a Starbucks drink or a fast food meal. I feel like people have been told to make this unrealistic comparison. I cook my own meals. I don't go to Starbucks. I also try to eat as healthy as I can as cheaply as I can. It is also not my intention to be negative. I think Shakeology would be a fantastic thing to try, but when I see Chalene post "Get a clue. It's cheap", I just feel insulted.JoyfulGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02233289297504987016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-77000505609132764752009-06-23T06:34:20.497-07:002009-06-23T06:34:20.497-07:00Chalene,

I have yet to see any increase in energy, or any change in digestion, weight or anything for that matter. I don't know what's up with me, but I haven't noticed any difference. I am on my 12 week of P90X, and really haven't lost any weight, but have increased strength, and maybe my body's shape looks better, but weight, and even inches, not so much. I have been dieting as well, and I'm about 30lbs overweight. I am considering sending the Shakeology back. What's your input on this?<br />MariaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-44106604450924756272009-04-17T09:55:00.000-07:002009-04-17T09:55:00.000-07:00Chalene,

I to...KM - Thank you for offering your perspective. I totally agree. Hey, if you can afford this stuff and like it, then go for it! But real fruits and vegetables are in fact cheaper, and teaching your children to eat whole foods is the absolute best way to raise a healthy eater, although of course, it may be unrealistic in some households. That's why I do understand that sometimes "you got to do what you got to do." However, I would like to advocate that if you are starting out with "clean slate" kids, please please please don't trick them, TEACH them!<BR/><BR/>I am also unable to find the exact ingredient list online. It is unclear if it contains whole fruits & veggies (in powdered form), or just extracts of antioxidants and phytochemicals. Extracts may sound healthier, but in fact, the whole plant offers a lot more benefits. I hope that is what it contains.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-76316824651852385802009-04-07T07:51:00.000-07:002009-04-07T07:51:00.000-07:00Heavens you're cute!

I am a online teambody member (still fairly new to TJ and the website) and have never contacted the coach assigned to me. I will do so now and see if she/he can order me the product.

I don't drink lattes, I don't go to Starbucks, I don't eat out. I try to eat as healthy as I can for as cheap as I can. To say that it's a lot cheaper than these other "luxuries" is insulting, and for most people, Shakeology IS a bit beyond their price range. Not because they "waste" money on other things, but simply because paying the electric bill has to come first. Add to that the economic downturn and the layoffs, and $100 a month is just out of reach for people.<BR/><BR/>Now, I don't want anyone thinking this is an all negative post- because it's not. I think if there's a way to fit this in your budget, it can do nothing but good for you. All I'm saying is that when people say it's "out of their price range" they might just be telling the truth.<BR/><BR/>I've brought up my concerns about price before on the boards, and everyone jumps on it as if they somehow know my personal financial situation- that if I could just "kick the Starbucks habit" I could afford it. Well, I'm here to represent all the other people out their who have mentioned their thoughts on the price and been given that response. We know Shakeology is great - we keep hearing about it. We know that there is a lot of bang for the price. We know it has top notch ingredients. We know that it is an investment in our health. However, that still doesn't mean everyone can find a way to fit it in their budget- even after cutting back on other luxuries.KMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-30571141151581670522009-04-06T13:25:00.000-07:002009-04-06T13:25:00.000-07:00But you can't get it in Canada :(Sad, Sad world we...But you can't get it in Canada :(<BR/>Sad, Sad world we live in... <BR/><BR/>:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844191762138935136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-67538089838896841762009-04-06T13:14:00.000-07:002009-04-06T13:14:00.000-07:00Now, I SERIOUSLY want to try this Shakeology SO BA...Now, I SERIOUSLY want to try this Shakeology SO BADLY!!!!<BR/>I enjoyed the blog though.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad to see that your son is getting healthy foods!!!<BR/>I would have to agree that I would rather have my (future children) drinking the Shakeology instead of not eating veggies and fruit.<BR/><BR/>YAYAmykins Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15180732048221951055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13098834.post-15197645910251366152009-04-06T12:55:00.000-07:002009-04-06T12:55:00.000-07:00LOL This entry is awesome!
