Time is very valuable these days so more and more people are trying to find healthier ways to eat on the go and lose weight.  Meal replacements are becoming a staple of the everyday diet and in my opinion, Shakeology is one of the best meal replacement shakes for weight loss.  Of course I may be a little biased, but here are some reasons to support my opinion.

1. Taste:  Most meal replacement shakes taste like powder or cardboard and it's hard to choke them down.  Also, the ones that taste too good are loaded with artificial sweeteners that defeat the purpose.  Shakeology, on the other hand, is all natural and tastes great and every order is accompanied by a recipe book to match just about every taste.

2. Cost:  Another reason that I believe that Shakeology is one of the best meal replacement shakes for weight loss is the cost.  When you buy a bag of Shakeology at the retail price and not the discounted price, you pay about $130.  Sounds expensive right? Well, when you look at the numbers, it's actually one of the cheapest meals of the day.  Here's the breakown:  There are 30 shakes in a bag of Shakeology so a bag breaks down to $4.33 per meal.  Most people that I talk to spend about $6 a day at lunch.  If they go to lunch 5 days a week (20 days/month), they are spending $130 a month as well (probably more).  The difference is you are probably getting much more nutritional value out of Shakeology.

3. Calories/nutritionals:  There are only 170 calories for a Shakeology shake. Try doing that at lunch! Not only that, Shakeology is full of probiotics, nutrients, super-foods, vitamins and antioxidants.  I can only speak from my experience, but since i've been replacing 1 meal a day with Shakeology, I am hardly ever sick. Not even close (I stopped knocking on wood months ago once I realized that eating healthier was leading to me avoiding sickness). My energy level has been through the roof as well!  When you put good things into your body, it performs at optimum levels.

Again, I do realize that there are other meal replacements out there and I am biased, but I challenge anyone to find a better meal replacement shake for weight loss than Shakeology.
