Chocolate Vegan Shakeology


Today Beachbody put out their new Chocolate Vegan Shakeology formula and I heard it's amazing!! So I ordered it and will be giving it a try! I love the non-vegan formula, but I heard the vegan one has more of a dark chocolate flavor.

I've tried the Strawberry Vegan Shakeology, and at first I wasn't so sure. The taste was amazing, just like a strawberry milkshake but not as thick......the only problem was the slight gritty texture it has due to the strawberry seeds, and I'm guessing the sprouted brown rice. I quickly got over it once I added a few tablespoons of Greek yogurt, the yogurt smoothed the texture out and I LOVE IT!! So when I placed my order I did the Chocolate, Strawberry alternate, so this month I'll get to try the chocolate first and then next month I'll get my bag of strawberry!


It's so weird how just a few months ago I would never have imagined spending money on a drink like this, how I would stalk the Shakeology sight and then exit out. Until one day I just pushed that order button. Now I can't believe I didn't do it sooner!! I recently sat down and wrote out how much I spent a month at GNC for multi-vitamins, protein, meal replacement bars, supplements ect ect, and it was WAY more than I spend on Shakeology a month, so that's actually money I've been saving these past few months!!


On another note, today is day 57 of ChaLEAN Extreme, so that means new 60 day measurements and pictures are coming soon. I can't wait to share my 30 day Push Circuit experience, the ups and downs, how I've been doing on my diet eating healthier and my whole 60 days as a whole.  I've also ordered extra DVD's from Chalene, called the Extreme Deluxe DVD's.   I should have went ahead and bought the ChaLEAN Extreme Deluxe to begin with ;-).  Thank goodness Beachbody gives you the option to buy the extra set separately!


I've also picked up on my running a bit, I still have that 700 goal to meet on December 31st!!


Have you been wanting to try Shakeology?  If so, I do offer individual serving packets for $5 and that includes shipping.  The flavors I have available are Chocolate, Greenberry, and the Strawberry Vegan.  I can offer the Chocolate Vegan, BUT it won't be in individual serving packets, just a scoop in a plastic bag until they come out with the serving packets.  If you do decide on the Chocolate Vegan, just order the Strawberry Vegan, and write in the notes that you'd rather do the Chocolate.
