Would you spend almost 2 years on a scam?

I have had quite a few people tell me, "Shakeology is a scam," or "I know you drink those shakes, but I'm not into weight loss shakes," or "sorry, but I like to eat REAL food."

That is fine if you aren't into drinking shakes and you'd rather chew everything you eat.  I just figured I should share why it is I drink Shakeology, because my reasons have changed in the past year and a half....Yes, I've been drinking my shakes EVERY day since March of 2014.

When I first purchased Shakeology, it was a shot in the dark because I was hoping it would help with weight loss.  I heard that it helped you feel full and helped curb junk food cravings and THAT was what I wanted.   And it worked.  Adding it to my fitness routine helped me lose 20 pounds.

But why do I keep drinking Shakeology?

Drinking Shakeology makes me feel better.  I know I am getting something healthy each day.  I know that it IS actually made from real foods that help me (and, yes, I do eat food that requires chewing for breakfast, dinner and at least 2 snacks per day).  And I no longer take a multi-vitamin because I know I am getting what I need in my shake.

My cholesterol has gone down from 223 to 166.  I don't want to be on cholesterol medication like my mom and my husband.  Since I started drinking my shakes, my cholesterol has gone down and it doesn't look like I will have to be in that boat.

I'm no longer shedding like the dog!  My husband made a comment the other day about how he used to find my hair everywhere, but hasn't in a long time.  I used to have to clear out the drain in the shower daily.  I seriously thought that I would be bald before the age of 45.  I'm sure it was some kind of vitamin or mineral deficiency, but my multivitamin didn't help and I wasn't able to pin point it....but it isn't happening like it was anymore since my shakes.

It tastes great!  And I have plenty of recipes to keep it different when I want a change.

It's an EASY lunch.  I can bring it to meetings, in the car, to football games, recess duty....

So, if "this Shakeology thing" was a scam, would I be drinking it every day for almost two years?  I would hope not.

If it isn't for you, that is okay, but that doesn't mean it is a scam or "just another weight loss shake."  If you are able to get all of the vitamins and minerals and probiotics and nutrients that you need every day without drinking Shakeology, then that is GREAT!  But I can't.  So, that is why I drink it.  Everyday.

**Update***  August 2017....and, yes....I still drink my shake EVERY day.  Yup.  It's been almost 3 1/2 years.
