When I first considered trying Shakeology, I was concerned about the price. How could I justify spending $130 per month on this shake? I am on a tight budget and I tend to over analyze; but in this economy, I have too. I took a look at what I was spending during the week for lunches.
Monday - Zaxby’s - $8.76
Tuesday – Subway - $7.63
Wednesday – Bilo Deli - $14.22
Thursday – Hibachi - $11.41
Friday – Chick Fil A - $7.73
In a total of 1 work week I spent $49.75 (This didn’t include what I was spending on coffee and vending machines.)
Multiply this by 4 weeks and I was spending $199 per month on eating out. Then I looked up the nutritional value of what I was eating, and realized why I wasn’t losing any weight. It is hard to maintain a healthy diet when you are eating out. Most of these foods are processed for convenience and full of sodium.
I was also taking diet pills every month, trying to curb my appetite. So I saved another $20 a month that I had been wasting, because they were not working. I had spent as much as $60 per bottle trying to find one that worked. If I did lose a few pounds, I would gain them right back.
I decided to try Shakeology for a month, and see if I was able to cut out the fast food. If so I wouldn’t be spending any more than normal, in fact, if I stuck with it, I would be saving money.
I have been drinking Shakelogy for 4 months now, and have not eaten out during the work week, nor do I want too. I make my shake for lunch, and it holds me over. I eat breakfast at home; have a healthy snack for mid-morning Shakeology for lunch and another healthy snack in the afternoon. I have lost weight, but the best part is I do not crave sweets, and I have been able to truly commit to eating healthy. My husband saw my results and now, he too has Shakeology for lunch. Together we were spending over $400 a month just in eating out!
Normally with the change in the season’s I get a cold, this year I have not been sick. My digestive system works like clockwork. During certain times of the month, I would crave chocolate, but not now. I have increased energy, sleep like a log at night and wake up just feeling good. I have also noticed my hair & nails are growing.
So for me, I have not only saved money with Shakeology, I am encouraged about the way I feel and the benefits I am seeing as far as my health are concerned.

Let’s face it, life is busy. Duty calls and where does the time go? With the greatest intentions of working out, life gets in the way. After a long grueling day at work, it is hard to make it to the gym. All it takes is an excuse: work a little over, get caught in heavy traffic,tired from the working, with a day like that it is easy to just miss the turn to the gym and make a bee line for home.
Okay so you decide to work out in the morning instead, great plan! Start fresh and nothing can get in your way. Lay out your gym clothes; pack a bag with your straightener, makeup, deodorant, work clothes on the hanger, oh yeah, fresh undies, shoes, toothpaste, soap and a towel. Bag is packed and alarm is set for 4:30am. Be at the gym by 5:15, get your cardio in from 5:30 to 6:00, then 45 minutes of strength training, 10 minutes of cool down , done with your workout at 7:00; shower, make-up, hair done by 7:45 and off to work you go.
Alright, it worked well for a month, then the hassle syndrome kicked in; missing a day here and there for some sleep becomes the greater part of the routine.
This used to be me. For 7 years, I rotated from morning workouts, to evening workouts, back to morning. The worst part of the evening workouts was the after 5:00 crowd and the motivation to even get to the gym after a long day. The worst part of the morning workout was getting up. Let it be cold or raining outside and all motivation to get up is gone.
I took the hassle out of working out and never miss a day. How? I get up at 6:00, have my juice or coffee, check my email and give myself time to wake up. Then I put on my workout clothes, go to the television, choose my workout DVD, put it in and press play. I work out from 6:30 to 7:15, make some oatmeal, take my shower and get ready for work. I’m out the door by 8:00, feeling great, no stress and my workout for the day is done!
It doesn’t have to be stressful, that defeats the purpose. The point is to get your workout done, feel great and lose weight.
I have gotten more results from working out at home than I ever did in the 7 years of going to the gym. Why?
1. Consistent – I don’t miss workouts
2. Comfortable – I worked out at my pace, and don’t have to worry about how I looked, or if I am being judged for how I am doing my workouts.
3. Relaxed and actually enjoy my workouts.
4. Great personal trainer, guiding me to get results.
5. Workout programs and diet are laid out for me. No guessing about what body part to work that day and what to eat for proper fuel and nutrition.
6. Support from others going through the same program. Yes, motivation via private Facebook groups, email, text or phone call from other’s facing the same challenges as you. (I will cover challenge groups later!)
7. Seeing my RESULTS!

I went through a battle with insomnia, bloating, weight fluctuation, unexplained depression, anxiety and panic attacks for over a year, before I finally connected the dots and realized what was going on with my body.
It started right before my 42nd birthday. I had been under a tremendous amount of emotional stress for a two year period. I made sure to have a healthy diet and regular fitness routine and thought that I was dealing the stress pretty well. During this time I had been having a hard time falling asleep, and when I would fall asleep, I was aware that my mind was constantly racing. I would wake up several times during the night and have a hard time falling back asleep.
All of the sudden, I began having panic attacks. I would be getting ready for work and have difficulty breathing. I would then get sick at my stomach and start shaking. These attacks would last anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes. The attacks began to progress from once or twice a month to weekly. I would become so upset, that I would vomit after each attack.
I contacted several counselors, thinking if I could just talk with someone, I could figure out why I was having these attacks, get past the issues and be okay. This of course was to no avail.
During this time I was experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding. I experienced severe pain, huge clots and had to keep several changes of clothing on me at work. I was taking two Advil every 2 hours to try and control the pain. This was every month and sometimes twice a month. I still did not put any of these symptoms together.
I continued to exercise and eat healthy, but was having to miss a few workouts due to heavy cycles. My weight was 127 pounds but would fluctuate to 135 during these cycles. I weighed myself every morning and could tell when I was getting ready to start my period by the scale. December 31st I weighed at 130, January 1st I weighed at 140. Ten pounds overnight, it had to be my scale, there was no way possible to gain this much weight overnight. I replaced the scale and was 140.
I made an appointment with my gynecologist and was advised to have an Endometrial Ablation. I had an ultrasound and an endometrial biopsy. The ultrasound showed that my uterine lining was 25mm and it should have been 4mm.
A lack of progesterone had caused my lining to thicken. The lack of progesterone was brought on by anxiety and panic attacks. The kicker to the entire dilemma was that it had been brought on by my battle with stress.
I am focusing on my lifestyle and nutrition from an entirely different view point than ever before. When I was younger I ate for taste, satisfaction, energy, or just because I could. Now that I have crossed the threshold of forty; I must deal with life a little differently from that of a twenty year old.
I am heading into a new age of life that will include hormonal roller-coasters, metabolism pit stops, as well as increased chances of age related diseases. Which foods should I eliminate from my diet? What foods should I eat to keep my body happy, healthy and productive as I move into this new realm of life? What forms of exercise and how often? How can I maintain a healthy metabolism and optimum weight loss?
Watch for fitness tips & recommendations, recipes, and possible home remedies I find along the way. There will be blogs on dealing with stress as well as motivation, humor and a new leash of life! I will be focusing on fitness and nutrition for women over forty.
