I get this statment a lot…”wow Shakeology is too expensive for me.” Well I thought this too and then I did a break down on my grocery bills and here is how Shakeology actually saves me money EVERY month on food.
| Hubby | Pack lunch |

||||||
| Deli Turkey | $1.16 | This is when our grocery had it for 2 packs for $7, that’s on sale | ||||||
| Fruit | $0.50 | |||||||
| Bread | $1.22 | Whole grain bread @ $4.29 a loaf, he eats 2 sandwiches | ||||||
| Soda-always bought 2 for $2.00 | $2.00 | |||||||
| Yogurt | $0.70 | One | ||||||
| Condiments | $0.25 | mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, cheese etc. | ||||||
| Total | $5.83 | $6-7.00 | ||||||

| So is Shakeology expensive? | ||||||||
| Not so much anymore, when you break it down! | ||||||||
If you have a hard time reading his I apologize, I did it in excel as it was a lot easier to add together this way.
I have been getting this excuse/fear from a lot of people lately and I had figured out a couple months ago that my savings was about $56.72 and just went over to my local grocery and got new prices as groceries have gone up. Now we are saving over $60 a month and we have TWO Shakeology home directs. One for me and one for my hubby. Seriously! Groceries are getting ridiculous. Now this $4 is for the regular person that orders Shakeology at $119 a bag for 30 servings. Now I am a Beachbody preferred customer, which is very easy to become, so on home direct my shakes are only about $3 each so my monthly savings just went up as I am now on home direct as a preferred customer so with me and my hubby I get another $20 savings per month making our total savings:
$81.60 from packing hubby’s lunch
$96.60 from $6 fast food lunches
$106.60 from $7 fast food lunches
So now we are eating healthier, quitting the daily soda, and saving money. So it’s all a win win situation for us!
Note:
The meat and bread breakdown are for two sandwiches for the hubby. He was never satisfied with one. He eats a whole foot long when we go to subway. Even if he only ate one sandwich it is still a .35 cent savings per day. Added up to a week is $1.75 and for 4 weeks is a $7.00 savings. The benefit is far great then money, but we are saving! This is for the $4 shake so it is $27.00 savings if you are a preferred customer. Feel free to e-mail me and ask me how to become one at coachttawna@gmail.com
If you ever want to try a Shake, on me, I give samples away You just have to go to my website FitAfterBabies.com and visit the FREE shakeology tab and it will tell you how to send me your info! I waited a long time because I thought I could not afford it and now am kicking myself that I waited so long!
Have a great day!
If this is still not for you, that is OK, it’s not for everyone. Share it and let others decide if it’s right for them!

Hi Tawna!!
No need to apologize, we all have our days. Hope things are going well for you.
Shakeology is a great deal!!
I tried Shakeology and I couldn't take it. . . . I thought it tasted like grass!
I am not a green berry fan but love the chocolate. Which flavor did you try?
