  Barbara writes...I love your magazine. I see so many supplements & bars- are they good for us though? Do Oxygirls really take them? I love my sweets-thats my problem. I w/out very hard but can't lose weight & hormones kick in & I need a snack most days. Any recommendations? I am tired of working out hardcore and ruining it by eating wrong! Help me please. Thanks

  No such thing as a magic pill!! But I drink Shakeology as my snack and have had great results for over a year. Low on the Glycemic Index to keep insulin levels from spiking, but I still feel like I'm cheating Lots of info and research at www.myshakeology.com/fitnat2 I also steer clear of processed as much as possible and snack on Think Thin bars, fruit, Greek yogurt, and almonds

  Thank you everyone! You are so helpful. I have been eating clean for 2 weeks-NO JUNK! I am sorry but to me shakeology is not food. It's not real food so I don't do that stuff. I know you get paid to sell this stuff but I am sorry-did you ever read the ingredients? I wouldn't drink that stuff. Food is what your body needs and water. REAL CLEAN FOOD. I eat the peanut butter oatmeal bars that Tosca reno has recommended-they are AWESOME! They last forever in the fridge. Bars are great-I only use them on rare occasions-THE ALL NATURAL ORGANIC ONES WITHOUT JUNK-The Lara bars are great! i Just don't do that stuff anymore. I eat salads, tuna, fish, turkey, bison, fruit and vegetables and for a snack-Tosca Saved me! I got rid of the sugar craving. I look at it and say 'I AINT GOING BACK THERE" Especially if I want to look great. So thanks everyone. Hopefully soon I will have a rock hard bod!

  The shakeology nutrient profile list , and while the marketing seems nice, I am still a skeptic. There is a long list of things in powder form, that do not naturally occur in powder form. To get them in that way requires processing, often if not most of the time, using chemicals - they don't just pound stuff flat and leave it out to dry - it's *processed* into powder form. The ingredient list are things that I recognize as naturally occurring, but they do NOT say what went into getting them into powder form. So the skeptic in me wonders what shakeology didn't add themselves, is actually in the various powders (more clever marketing - WE didn't add xyz...). As an example, go to a Whole Foods and look at the ingredient list for any of the listed ingredients you can actually buy - I bet $$ you will find chemicals in most. Oh, btw, check out the note below the allergy info at the bottom. There is a substance in there that is actually banned by the NFL and WADA? No thank you. I'll buy any shake that lists only ingredients I can go buy myself but it has to be FOOD. Just saying...do your homework, don't just believe the slick marketing that says it's all natural. I mean cocaine is naturally derived too from the coca plant.
