Shakeology on Phase 1

[wmdbell]

Hello All,

I usually have a chocolate or strawberry Shakeology shake (a Beachbody product), made with 1c unsweetened vanilla flavored almond milk and 1c ice (sometimes I will add a Tbsp of Almond butter or PB and a banana), in the mornings for breakfast. I am starting the South Beach Diet on phase 1 and would like to know if Shakeology is okay to have on phase 1? I know that I cannot have the banana in it but are the rest of the ingredients ok?

Thanks for any help you can give.

If you look at the ingredients, it has fruits and grains in it, which are both off limits in p1.

Thanks! I will eliminate it for now. I have a whey protein mix that I can have in the mornings for now.

I just found this post and was wondering if the whey protien drink was okay, I mix mine with water.

Welcome to the site!

To answer your question, it depends on the ingredients. Whey is fine, but sometimes whey shakes have other things in them. If you post the ingredients, someone may be able to give you suggestions.

Btw, you posted the same question in a different discussion - no need to post twice. (The extra post was deleted.) People reply to both, and it can get confusing.
