Shakeology!

My shakeology arrived yesterday!!! I've been reading about Shakeology through Beachbody for awhile and finally ordered it! I have been using the Beachbody Meal Replacement shake so was anxious to see if the vitamin and nutrient packed drink could hold up to my morning meal! My plan is to use Shakeology in place of the meal replacement shake. I ordered the Greenberry. I have a love of the McDonalds Shamrock shake so the picture of the Greenberry Shakeology is a favorable one!

When I opened the bag, my first thought was....ugh...it is, quite literally, the color of peas or spinach. It doesn't look anything like a McDonalds Shamrock shake! And that's probably a good thing! I noticed immediately the fruit smell but also a scent of vitamins...not overpowering but you know you're drinking a healthy mix! I used water and ice in a shaker for this first try. It is not as think as the meal replacement shake. When mixed it is thicker than a glass of milk but not as thick as a milk shake. When mixed, it has the same dark green color...darker than what I see in the ads. My guess is that if mxed in a blender or use of milk would acheive that beautiful green color!!

And, of course, the most importnat thing, the taste: yummy!! I was afraid with the color that it was going to taste strange. It is a berry taste but I wouldn't say I could name the berry!! It's the combination of sweetness of berries like the strawberry and grape with a hint of the tart (like cranberry). I really, really like it! I was trying to figure out if I could have it twice in one day!!

I'll keep reporting on how I feel taking the Shakeology! I'm expecting the first result will be in **regularity**. Yeah, yeah, no one wants to talk about it but it's one of the things they mention in the materials. I'll try to let you know in a way that doesn't feel like TMI!! More to come on Shakeology!!
