When i first started this journey i was against the idea of incorporating shakes into my meal plan. After all the horrible stories you hear about "Shake diets" it just wasn't my thang. With anything i do i always make sure to do my research. And being pregnant at the time i wanted to make sure that this was something safe, not only for me but for my growing baby.
After researching all the ingredients in shakeology and how they affected the body and being quite satisfied, I took the bag in to my next Doctors appointments. She gave the back of the bag a run down and gave me the A OKAY to use shakeology as a replacement to prenatal pills (Now before you get all crazy on me ... Know that i tried taking prenatal pills but my body would not keep them down. I tried all the tricks in the book. Splitting them in half, taking one in the morning, night, with food, without food.. you name it i tried it. Shakeology was my best bet at making sure i was getting ALL the proper nutrients my body and baby needed.)
I also struggled with anemia through out my whole life. And it was the same deal with Iron pills as the prenatal pills. Shakeology ended up being the demise of my lack of iron. So you could say i was BEYOND thrilled with just those results. And i hadn't even begun to use it as a way to get in shape. So far my journey was STRICTLY about getting as healthy as i possibly could.
After my pregnancy i was more than ready to get back in shape. I loved being pregnant but it was time to get this journey on the go! Shakeology ultimately helped me to loose the baby weight and helped me to curb all my crazy cravings. Things like Chocolate, Icecream, and pastries became that much easier to avoid. The thing about shakeology that i LOVE is that it can be used in more ways than just a shake. I have a few of my favourite recipes listed below!

Shakeology is more nutritious than a salad and tastes like a dessert!
What is Shakeology?
Shakeology is a nutritional protein shake that provides a wide spectrum of healthy nutrients in a low-calorie formula. Whether you use it as a meal replacement for weight loss or simply to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs for optimal health, Shakeology takes the guesswork out of nutrition.
What's in it?
Shakeology contains over 70 ultra high-quality ingredients conveniently located in one glass, to deliver nearly all the nutrients you need to maintain a healthy diet. It's good for you, and good for everyone, because everyone's diet is deficient in some of the key nutrient groups packed into just one Shakeology serving.
Protein from whey, which is highly absorbable, gives you 8 essential amino acids that help you build muscle, lose weight, support brain function, and keep your skin and bones healthy.
Vitamins and minerals support optimum health.
Antioxidants boost the immune system and help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, blood pressure, and stroke.
Phytonutrients support immune function and have anit-inflammatory properties.

What can Shakeology do for you?
It is an effective way to help you lose weight, increase your energy and be the healthiest you can possibly be. Shakeology can help you reduce cravings and promote healthy digestion and regularity. Shakeology recomends that you replace one meal per day with a shake along with regular exercise and a balanced diet, participants who did this experienced remarkable health improvements. It can reduce your total cholesterol, reduce LDL cholesterol, reduce cardiovascular risk, and reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Why Shakeology?
I love Shakeology because I am a busy parent and it is a quick and convenient way to get complete nutrition. It supplies me with the energy I need to help keep up with the kids and my hectic lifestyle. It is also easier to make and tastier than a salad, and it is an excellent way to eat healthy when eating a full meal is not possible. If you don't like eating fruits and vegetables then this is a great way to get all the benefits of eating a full bowl of fruits and vegetables without having to actually eat them. If you have high cholesterol then this will help you lower total and LDL as well.
How to use it.
It's very simple.
Mix 1 scoop of Shakeology with 8 oz. of water. If you like, add ice. Or if you want something more filling and maybe even more satisfying, blend your Shakeology with ice and nonfat, almond, rice, or soy milk. Shakeology dissolves easily, but blending it will give it a thicker, creamier texture. Honestly, when I make my shakeology I always add more than 8 ounces because I think it's too thick! The more liquid you add the thinner it gets!! :)
