My #MilfShake Brings All the Boys to the Yard

So I got your attention with my hilariousness #ImMyOwnNumerOneFan BUT now that you’re here I want to share some info about my best friend; Shakeology.

.I have had one shake a day for almost 4 years.  Specifically 1,375 days.  EVERY SINGLE DAY. Through a pregnancy and nursing for 17 months.

Want to know why?  Let’s start with WHAT it is…

Shakeology is made with all the the good and healthy stuff you should be eating every day, but probably don’t. I’m talking BEYOND protein - remember this is NOT just a “Protein Shake.”I’m talking phytonutrients, antioxidants, enzymes, prebiotics, and probiotics. Plus, it also contains many rare ingredients, including adaptogens, camu-camu, and maca root—things we can’t typically get from an ordinary diet. So whether you are looking to use Shake-o for weight loss, or drinking it to optimize your health, this powerful and delicious shake is Your Daily Dose of Dense Nutrition.

When I started I was literally a #Mombie - sleep deprived, draggin A and surviving on that coffee - > wine rotation.  I was TIRED, AGGRAVATED, IRRITABLE and thats as a fitness instructor teaching 9 classes a week.

It took me awhile to say yes. #Truth. I said all the stuff I hear now “I eat my food.” “I know how to eat” “It’s too expensive” Want to know what changed my mind? 

MY FRIENDS WERE DOING IT. (insert palm to forehead emoji haha)

HOWEVER I am VERY grateful for them because I’m not sure I ever would’ve gotten out of my own way. So 5 days in I had the MOST energy I have ever had.  I mean immediate decrease in caffeine intake, it regulated me (TMI?) and it curbed my cravings so I saw a few lbs fall off. #WINNING

Want to know the best thing I haven’t even said yet - IT IS SO FREAKING EASY.

Convenience - as a mom that word is legit porn.  Show me another healthy meal that we don’t have to make (ok FINE Mr.Parker doesn’t have to make), I can make it with one hand and I will legit KISS YOU.

So let’s highlight a few things:

  • Convenience: It’s whole food.  YES it’s packaged BUT all of the natural, nothing artificial ingredients are dried to keep their nutritional integrity.  Think if you were doing a juice cleanse (WHICH EVERYONE does #notjudging) same thing except dried.

  • Strengthens Your Immune System: Shout Out to those adaptogens and vitamins!  This season in New England is RIDIC.  My kids think I’m AWESOME when they get a milk shake for breakfast and I feel good knowing I’m doing what I can to fight off this grossness.

  • Reduces Chronic Inflammation: Did you know this is the #1 cause of most diseases is inflammation.  (I’ll take 2 please. I’m no spring chicken)

So there you have it!  If you want to be introduced to my Best Friend let me know!  It’s ok I share!  I want everyone I know to benefit if they can :)
