Just a Bag of Powder???

I am no Math whiz…I never really got it all that well. Don’t get me wrong.  I made A’s, but it wasn’t my thing.  However, I DO love and appreciate a good deal!


As a fitness coach, I love what I do.  I get to help people reach their goals by encouraging and educating them.  People’s lives are changing, and I am so privileged to be a part of that.


A statement I hear from time to time is, “I really want to do this, but I just can’t afford that.”


And I understand this.  The first time I saw the price of Shakeology or the price of a challenge pack, I was a little floored as well.  In fact, I totally skipped it at first.  I just purchased my workout program and that was it.  


Compared to other shakes on the market, it does seem much pricier.  But, I really didn’t understand what all I was getting.  It is SO much more than just a bag of protein powder.  So, like someone did for me, I’m going to break it down for you.

1.  Shakeology is NOT just a protein shake!  It is a meal replacement.  So, when you purchase a bag of Shakeology, you are buying 30 meals all at once.  As a regular customer, this comes out to about $4/day.  I used to spend more than that on breakfast on the go or even on my Diet Cokes for the day.  When you purchase a challenge pack – which includes a workout program AND 30 days of Shakeology – it comes out to closer to $3/day.  I KNOW most of us spend that much or more on one of our meals.


2.  It is JAM-PACKED with super foods and nutrients.  So much so, that my one shake/day replaces my multivitamin now.  I used spend close to $20/month on a really good multivitamin.  Shakeology gives me all the nutrients I need, and gives a huge boost to my energy.  It also makes my hair and nails grow like crazy!  I often hear from challengers who have been drinking it for a week or two that their hairdresser is amazed at how thick and soft their hair has become.  This stuff is the real deal and is crazy good for your body!


3.It’s all natural.  This was a big deal for me.  There are a lot of shakes out their that are low in calories and even have a lot of nutrients in them.  However, they use aspartame or sucralose to sweeten them.  Shakeology uses the all natural sweetener, Stevia.  I even allow my kids to drink it.


4. It’s extremely convenient!  For a mommy who works full time and even during the summers when I am home, I am always on the go.  Shakeology is one meal that I don’t have to think about.  I just mix it and go.  And it tastes awesome!!!!  For all my meal planning, that is just one box I can fill in and not have to plan out.  Makes my life much easier.

And honestly, for those people who opt to just create their own superfood shake at home using fruits and veggies, they probably spend $3 or more just buying the food to put into them.  

So let’s say that you were to go to the store and purchase 30 healthy meals all at once.  Even conservatively, you could factor $6 per meal over the course of a month when you are also thinking of a bit of convenience here and there with being able to grab something quickly at times.  So let’s say $180 or so per month for one great really healthy per day for the entire month.

Honestly folks, I don’t encourage people to try Shakeology to make a sale.  This stuff is PROVEN to work and improve our health.  I have challengers and coaches who have been able to lower their cholesterol, get off their blood pressure meds, and countless other health benefits! Exercise, clean eating and Shakeology have changed lives!

Some of you may remain unconvinced, and that is ok.  But I hope I have conveyed the value of Shakeology and especially challenge packs.  For those of you who have invested, I know you understand already!! 


I am so grateful I found Beachbody – the programs, Shakeology, and the coaching experience.  No matter what happens in the future, I know that my life has changed for the better because of it!
