Happy 6th Birthday to my favorite morning buddy, Shakeology!! For a year now I have been drinking a Shakeology shake daily. I am a creature of habit, and lover of chocolate, so 90% of those days were chocolate shakes. Who would pass up a chocolate shake {that is actually AMAZING for you} for breakfast?
That would be just silly!
I share my love for shakeology on IG sometimes, and a few times on here, but never have really shared why I keep drinking it.
In the last year, I have had one legit cold, the week of my wedding- we all know stress really did that to me-, since I started drinking Shakeology. I leave out my allergy sniffles because these are managed by my allergy meds, not something I task my shake with doing.
In the last year, I stopped drinking coffee daily. After starting to work full time, I started drinking coffee daily to help me function in the morning. Now, I only drink coffee because I want the taste of it, or something warm. Who knew I would ever love the taste of coffee.
In the last year, I have am super regular in the bathroom. Not to get too gross here, but I totally can feel the side effects of not drinking a Shakeology for a few days. Seriously, on our vacation for San Francisco last Christmas, I went 3 days without my shake and my stomach was in knots! I won’t be doing that again. I enjoy knowing that I am going to be regular every day, and sometimes multiple times per day! Gut health is the most amazing thing EVER!
In the last year, I have not once thought about the “investment” Shakeology is per month. Most people bring this up as the reason to not buy. Believe me, I was that person too, but once I started drinking it daily, the benefits to my health have far out weighted the thought of money. Now I can’t imagine not having it in my daily routine.
In the last year, being a Shakeology drinker and Beachbody coach, I have met so many INCREDIBLE people. I have made lasting friendships with people I would have never had the opportunity to meet before. These people have added so much accountability, support, and motivation to my life, I don’t know what I would do without them!
So there you have it, my mini love profession for my Shakeology!
