NEW Chocolate Shakeology - Customer Approved!

As many of you know by now, a new "Customer Approved" Chocolate Shakeology formula was announced in November and has been shipping out to customers.  This was in response to feedback from people who thought the "New Superfoods Formula" was not up to par in the taste department.  The original reason that Beachbody made changes to the formula was to decrease the sugar content and add more fiber, as well as to add 4 new superfoods into the mix!  I am happy to report that although the taste has changed in this latest version, all the improvements to the formula itself have stayed, so it's a win-win!
