What flavor do you drink?
I drink Tropical Strawberry Shakeólogy (or sometimes referred to simply as Tropical Shakeólogy). I mix it with water, ice, and frozen mixed berries. Super yummy!
What's the best time of day to drink Shakeólogy?
The best time really depends on when you need it most. If you find you skip breakfast, or breakfast only consists of coffee and donuts, then breakfast is a great time to have a shake. If you find yourself making a beeline for the vending machine at 3 PM, then that's when it would be best for you to have a shake. For me, I find I'm most likely to eat unhealthy snacks after dinner, so that's when I drink my daily Shakeólogy. That way, I can treat it like dessert!
What makes Shakeólogy the "healthiest meal of the day"?
I couldn't tell you what each and every ingredient in Shakeólogy does for you, but here's what I do know. Shakeólogy includes tons of protein (the Tropical comes from an all vegan source whereas the other flavors come from Whey protein), superfood fruits and veggies (plus fiber), antioxidants, prebiotics and probiotics, phytonutrients, and digestive enzymes. It's also said that Shakeólogy contains a days worth of fruit and veggie nutrition. And since I don't really eat vegetables (except the occasional carrot or celery) I need all the help with that I can get! But even for veggie eaters, the stuff in this shake come from all over the world, not just your typically broccoli!

What did Shakeólogy do for you?
Many people don't know this, but before I tried Shakeólogy for the first time (back before they had Tropical) I actually had pretty severe acid reflux. I was on a twice a day prescription for the stomach issues. But, after a month or two of drinking Greenberry daily, my acid reflux went away! No more chronic heartburn for me! Unfortunately, I didn't really like the Greenberry flavor so I stopped buying it after a few months. However, since I've started drinking the Tropical daily, I sleep great, have tons of energy, still no heartburn, and my skin looks fantastic. I'm excited to see how it helps me stay energized when classes resume and I have 9 hour to 13 hours days at school! (By the way, can I just say "ewww" to 13 hour days at school? Yuck!)
What if I don't like the flavor or it "doesn't work" for me?
Beachbody stands behind this product 100% so they even offer a "Bottom of the Bag" guarantee. Obviously, if you don't like the flavor you can send it back for a full refund. However, you can also try it for 30 days, and even if you use up the entire bag, if you're not satisfied by what it does for your health, you can still get your money back! I will say though, that if you don't like the flavor on the first try, don't throw in the towel! The first time I tried the Tropical I thought it was "ok" but not "great." Once I figured out the best water-to-ice ratio and added in the frozen berries, however, it was AWESOME! So, try out a few different batches before you give up on it.
I will say that I really really didn't like the Greenberry flavor though. But I have friends who love that flavor and other friends who swear by the Chocolate but don't really like the Tropical. That's why there are a number of flavors to choose from; there's something for everyone.
Where can I order Shakeólogy?
You can order Shakeólogy from my personal Shakeólogy website: www.myshakeology.com/SamA or by clicking here. When you order from my site, I become your personal Beachbody Coach and I can help you with any of your questions about Shakeólogy. You can also contact me via that website, or leave me a comment here, to inquire about which flavor and shipping option is best for you.
Should I buy the bulk bag or single servings? And what is this Home Direct thing?
First, home direct is amazing. Home direct is the Beachbody monthly autoship. By participating in home direct, you get free shipping and you don't have to worry about forgetting to reorder and running out of your shake. I get my shipment on home direct because I'm way too busy to remember to reorder every month (remember those 13 hour days I mentioned?).
As far as bulk bag vs single servings, it depends on how you plan to use Shakeólogy. If you think you will drink it every day and will make your shake at home most of the time, I'd order the bulk bag (that's what I do). The bulk bag has 30 servings and sits on my counter right next to my blender most of the time so it's convenient for me. However, if you think you'll drink Shakeólogy most days and/or will often have your shake while you're at work or on the go, the single servings are a great option. Those come with 24 individually wrapped servings which are great to take with you on the go. I actually ordered an extra box of the 24 single servings to have on hand when I have to go away for a weekend and don't want to bring my whole big bag.
Well, I hope that helped! Please feel free to leave me a comment if you have any questions.
