I am one of those who was super skeptical of how Beachbody would work for me and how Shakeology would taste. I have issues with tastes and textures when it comes to nutritional supplements and shakes. I had tried almost every protein and nutritional shake on the planet. As a post gastric bypass patient protein is crucial, but it had been a challenge getting my recommended 60 grams of protein daily
. As a result of gastric bypass, I went from a women's size 32 to a ladies size 14, but I regained weight as a result of not working out regularly and ended back in an 18 with 28 pounds gained back. Surgery was just a tool, not a cure all; and I had to get back on track, and although it did change my life, I needed accountability and encouragement and something to energize me and keep me from snacking. I was hesitant to participate in my first Challenge Group (30 Days to Great), but I ended up loving it! I am almost done with my 2nd Challenge Group (Hip Hop Abs Challenge), and I am now almost finished with the Focus T25 Challenge. Challenge Groups have changed my life. Shakeology curbs my appetite, energizes me, keeps me regular, and keeps me from snacking on junk! To date, I have lost 10.4 lbs (avg of 0.9 per week, which is recommended to be a healthy amount), and I have lost 25.5 inches. The kids have participated with me and they love the shakes and smoothies that I make us with Shakeology! This is why I became a Team Beachbody Coach. Then let me be your coach and accountability partner. Check out my website: http://www.ShawnaLiving.com
