Shakeology

I haven't been drinking Shakeology long,

but I sure do love it.

I was introduced to Shakeology in July 2015.

I didn't even want to try it.

I really dislike meal replacement shakes.

When I tried the samples though..

I was IN LOVE.

Chocolate is my absolute favorite.

Shakeology is my breakfast every morning.

It helps me curb my cravings.

It gives me energy.

It keeps me fuller longer.

It has the nutrients and proteins I need.

And it is low in calories.

Perfect, right?

I want to share some of my favorite recipes I have tried so far.

If you haven't tried Shakeology

and you want to: message me.

Seriously, I don't know what I would do without it now.

It's my fastest & healthiest meal of the day!

Makes about 12 balls, 1 ounce each. Put in freezer until firm.
